Shweet. :D
A red 1 and a white 1 just like Pooky's, only her white ones about to get sprayed red. Not elantes either. Any chance U could take a close up of the rear wing mounts. I've gotta drill her boot for the wing I got and I wanna get it in the right spot. :)
I'm swiping a wing from the wreckers during the week (After Wed, or somthin)
I'll measure and photo for you, for I need to do so for myself as well.

The two of them were used for a wedding today and everyone commented how unique they looked. Everyone stopped to stare at them - the girls sure got some attention :)
What always gets me is that they are so similar yet so different. Jump from one into the other and drive and you can tell the difference. I must admit though the whole time I am behind the wheel of E1 I have a smile from ear to ear!!! (E2 will be the same after a little work, but it has the straighter body)

On my old Elite I used some builder's chalk. Sat the spoiler on the lid and then tapped slightly to give the mark.
The spoiler almost fits perfectly on the boot itself

Ta for that. :D
I've driven all 3 gens of magna and the 2nd gen always felt small and the 3rd wasnt much better. Plus I dislike the 3rd gens frameless windows.
We bought the 2 TP's for Pooky, 1 of which I had to drive back from newcastle to bundaberg (long story), it it just struck me as quiet, smooth and unpretentious. It really grew on me.
Pooky likes the white one best for driving so its getting a total strip down and rebuild, the red one i'll just freshen up and might sell.

We have a KS Verada in addition to the Elantes and it is a damn nice car but I know what you mean about it feeling small. It's because the interior is so bulky in it :)
I love the first gens, they are an awesome vehicle for their age
