I know. :(

Given me some of the biggest driving thrills ever, but I use the Elise more often. I thought I was hardcore, but I guess I'm just not that hardcore. :oops:

My pelvis touching the 1/2” box section chassis in my mates 620R and the feeling of vulnerability on the road and track mean caterham is no from me.

Even the S1 is tiny, but I would trust it in an accident way more..

I usually trot out the 'better protection in a crash than a motorbike' argument at this point. It's closer to a motorbike in spirit than almost all other cars, Elise isn't really the same kind of car being so much heavier.

The S1 took its final long and arduous journey to new its new owners earlier.
