Our Elise was bought last year as a jointly owned 'fun' second car, a decision we don't regret despite several niggles. At times these 'teething problems' have irritated the hell out of us - namely a leak in one of the headlights that allowed water into the cabin, and a driver's door that on several occasions refused to close properly - but all is forgiven the moment you drive it. Truly superb. In terms of practicality, though, it would be a challenge as your only car.
