You cannot compare these 3 cars chap, they are completely differnet beasts, your talking about 1 x practical everyday coiup and 2 x cramped, completely impractical (people dont think about how much it would affect their day to day lives - belive me, a few people i know have hjad elises and had to get rid because they dont do a day to day job)

I'd have an Elise, definately impractical but ever so immense to drive! And they look so nice!

Elise > BMW > VX220

I've sat in a VX220 Turbo (i'm 6 foot 1) and it was a bitch to get into

Awesome car I just prefer the styling of the Lotus to the Vauxhall!

Very valid point, would you REALLY want that hassle 247 Hmmm

VX mate - then save up for the supercharger conversion

elise's - lovely cars, but seem to be a bit smaller than VX's, though both are arseholes to get into if you 6ft or over

if its for everyday mate, i would stick with the bmw as the elise/vx arnt the most pratical of cars
