Lol @ the mini thing, having owned a mini and driven pretty much every jap car there is, the FD is the perfect drivers car, the steering weight,balance and turn in is incredible, I\'ve just bought one after selling my Supra TT, a mini even a works one would be left behind on the bends and the straights even in a near stock FD but again it is down to the driver, the FD is a better car.

Oh yes regularly, and still do  (although mainly just browsing the classifieds waiting for someone to px my RX for thier Elise)  Some guy is selling a Supercharged Honda Powered Elise S2 on there, he mentioned Px so fingers crossed  ;)

So you have come over to the dark side from SELOC as well then?

The FD3 feels more like a sportscar than any other \'tin can\' ive driven. Which may explain why I spent so long in the kit car world before discovering them. I have to say i prefer them to both the s1 and s2 elise also, perhaps my expectations were too high for the lotus or maybe im just getting old.

Not on there much really but used to be more regular ;)

Had a S1 Exige back then, and totally agree that after driving an Elise you do get so spoilt for handling that anything you drive after seems, well, rubbish... The FD I\'m pleased to say does feel right again, just having proper double wishbones makes so much difference!

Now a SC\'d Honda would be the ultimate toy really! I went out in Christians SC\'d Exige and it sounded like a jet fighter! Truely mental machine! GL with it :D

Dc2...best handling fwd ever?
Ive not pushed my fd that hard yet bit i was surprised how well it managed b roads. I thought my 172 cup on coilovers would give the fd a good run for its money but not so sure now.

You know what, if someone here said that to me i\'d say something along the lines of put "your money where your mouth is, you can even pick the venue"
