Hello everyone

My name is Daniel and someone has implanted Lotus DNA when I was born. This Lotus DNA has brought me two Elise S1 and 1 Exige S1 (I still own the Exige). Over 15 years and more than 100'000 KM pure joy, what a lucky man I am!
Our longest trip with the Exige was Barcelona in 2008, http://virtualhelvetia.ch/bcn/story/, out latest was the Mille Miglia in 2014 (will post pictures later).

I have previously owned many other cars, such as Lancia Y10 Turbo, Ford Granada, several Mazda MX-5, Toyota Crown, Volvo 343 (don't laugh, it's trans axle!), Toyota Corolla 4x4, Ford Bronco, and a 1979 Mercedes W123 hearse.... etc.

My wife shares my passion (most of the time :twisted: ), so what more can I ask from life? Super-wife, super-car, happyness and healthiness? (Maybe an Elan...?)



Now I hope to find some informations here about my other dreamcar, the Elan! Cheers, Daniel

Gruezi Daniel,

I am interested especially in you participation of the Mille Miglia, with which car did you use ?? None of the mentioned seemed an "appropiate" car ...

Hi Daniel,

You have chosen a great dream car.
This forum is second to none, If you're seeking help & advice I doubt there will be a question that someone can't answer here.
Hope you find an Elan soon

Colin

Hi Guillermo, we went to Italy with my Exige S1, that's why I did not participate, we were spectators only ;-)

If it is of any interest, we can open a Mille Miglia thread. I have lots of information for anyone interested, where to stay, what to see etc. If not, I can give you these information via e-mail.
