300 off in May (approx)

WR Blue
Revised Headlights
Sideskirts
Revised front spoiler
High Level Spoiler
17" Gold Wheels
240bhp

Is this the new shaped thing?

If so then

"Revised Headlights" They didn't last long then, even Subaru must hate the things.

Thanks Jonathon, being a sucker for ltd editions I'll keep em peeled for this! http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/cool.gif
Lets just hope the revised lamps look good!
BTW, when's your M3 expected geezer?

Theres a good question. People slate IM, but I placed my M3 order in Sept. As of today the dealer has no allocation. It could be late this year or judging by the way its going early next. Original date June this year. I'm no 6 on the list at a mid-large size dealer

I was toying with the idea on a new elise...went into HRowen in the Docklands last week...When can I have one mister? I asked. Dunno, production problems yadda yadda yadda maybe before September sir. Says he.
Drat thinks I. http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/frown.gif

I heard Lotus were in a right mess investigating getting the Elise ready for World Wide sales...

New Elise production delayed...
VX220 production delayed...
M250 developement suspended...

Maybe Lotus should run the railways... sounds like they're qualified http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif

Aren't the revised headlight the HID projector type (instead of the fishbowl reflectors we get)? Also though it was 280bhp??

Chuck,

there are some great bargains to be had with Exige's at the moment (production run now finished) if you can live with virtually a track-day use car.

I'm sure that you could get a new Elise sooner than Sept if you really wanted to. I'll ask some of the Lotus guys up here what the situation is.

I did hear something similar sometime back ( around Network Q ) but the power output was said to be 'Higher than the P1'.

Which would be nice.
