andydclements Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 Welcome to the forum, you'll note you are far from alone in not having English as your first language, with quite a few continental Europeans as members. I have Esprits, but still have a certain love for the Elite, a bit more practical, a sports car that can carry a suitcase and a passenger.

david Posted January 7, 2009 Report Share Posted January 7, 2009 Welcome Christophe, Lovely looking Elite too. How long have you owned it? I visit Paris on business several times a year so if you ever need parts brought out from the UK, I'll be happy to help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
