Posted: Wed May 05, 2004 1:56 pmGreat but how do you get the cortina out 
The other major problem I see is making a decision on which one to drive....... Hmmm the baby Elan every time but I might be biased

Actually, I did put a front bumper on it later. It was tempting to leave it off though.

Gettin' the Cortina out took a bit of argy-bargy back-an-forth, but it stayedout of the weather otherwise.
It WAS the 'little' car whot got th' most exercise... but just knowing I had a choice was heaven to me.

How did you add the hpoto to your post, i have never found a way to do that yet on these forums ?
I agree the choice is wonderful. My 4 car garage has only 3 slots taken up with the Esprit, Elan and Plus 2, still waiting for Elises to get cheap enough or me to become rich enough to add a 7 in the final slot.
Still a way to go to get to where another guy in Australia got to with a garage with about 8 Formula 1 Loti in it !
