I still find it amazing that not only you were gifted a car when you were 4, but that you actually keep it, and always in amazing condition
The car was named after her
@@SohilSahare009interesting never knew that ....makes more sense now
What?! They made you buy Sunshine?! I thought they gave it to you!!!! Bloody Lotus, some things never change!
What a wonderful wonderful video Elisa, thank you! Eli must be the most historically significant Elise in the world. Very very special indeed. And Sunshine too is a piece of motoring history being the last ever. Wonderful insights into the cars and wishing you many many more happy miles (or kilometres) in both!
I Thought that they should of given it to her really
Maybe she wanted to do Lotus a solid and support.
yes I bought sunshine, they gifted me the radio and the cover
@@ElisaArtioli I hope you are still enjoying both.
It’s so cool that one of the greatest drivers cars on earth was named after you, and here you are. A massive fan of them. Love it!! ❤
I’ve been watching this channel for ages and it was only today that the penny dropped who you are Elisa 😂❤
I remember what a thrill it was to ride in my friend's Europa back in high school.. Sitting so low to the ground and accelerating into the corners as we drove throughout our town was such a great feeling.. So, I have always been a fan of the Lotus. Your channel is so enjoyable to watch. It is informative and well done. Thank you for your hard work and great creativity in creating the content. Very well done! Grazie!
I have an S3 Elise CR.
Before that, I was driving an S2 Rover engine car.
The Elise is such a beautiful car. I love them all.
I salute you for giving Elise her name.
Just found your RUclips program. Elisa, you did a great job in comparing the two models, and as an S1 owner as well as an S2 owner, I agree with your conclusions. The S1 handling can’t be beat. But even with that said, both are fun to drive!
"Everytime you have to smile"
Great summary for most Lotus, but in particular the S1.
Nicely done 👍
I agree re the S1 ❤ I have owned a few Elises before, a 400hp supercharged S2, a 220hp S1, a standard S1 111S and after a break of 6 years due to a motorsport accident, I’m back in an S1 😊
I remember the launch of this car with you in it, knowing the Elise was named after you. Just now I find out you are here on YT. Subbed milady!
Wonderful comparison Elisa, thank you! Your enthusiasm and passion for the cars is great to watch. Great to hear that the S1 is still your favourite, although I would love the 240 sport too. You can never have too many Elises! I also have a silver S1, which I’ve owned for the last 16 years and love it. The thing that EVERY Elise driver says is that it make them smile, sometimes laugh. How many cars can do that? I recently had my car serviced at a Lotus specialist. The mechanic delivered the car back to my home - when he jumped out of the car, he was grinning from ear to ear, and said “I HAVE to get myself an S1!”. Even the specialists forget how good they are. :)
Great video and what lovely countryside to enjoy both the cars. Thanks for the comparison of the first and last Elise. I too have an early S1 Elise and I’ve always wondered how much better the newer versions are. I think your conclusion is that the S1 is still the car closest to the pure driving experience.
Thank for you a good review of your cars. I love that you have the first and last Elise, and that you drive them! We love ours. I also see you have an A110 in the garage! Great taste :)
I have had 3 Elise and loved them all. Never loved the Porsche I had or the F type. Nothing drives like a Elise. Thank you sharing your insights.
Great video Elisa and thanks for presenting this in English. I too have had and Elise S1 and now an Elise S3 (220 sport). They are both great drivers cars. I agree with your review. The S1 was a bit more raw - and probably the better driver's car, although definitely a bit harder to live with. The S3 is a bit heavier as you say but with more power. Anyway, you gave your name to a great car. Thank you.
This is a beautiful video. You are genuine and compelling like your Elise. Thank you.
Grazie Elisa sei una persona meravigliosa e una vera appassionata di motori.Lotus Elise è sempre stata una macchina che ho sempre sognato❤Complimenti per le tue bellissime Lotus!!!Tuo nonno è fiero di te😊Un abbraccio!!!
due tra le migliori macchine che si possano guidare e colei che ha dato il nome al modello, una ragazza competente e bellissima, i like it!
Thank you very much for the video and I really enjoyed it ! Your effort to speak in English gave me some motivation to review my S260 Exige in English 😊 I wish I was driving my car in beautiful Italian roads !
A fantastic and honest review. You were definitely smiling more in the S1 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼😀😀😀
“Here we have the air conditioning…” 💀
Great Video Elisa , thank you
Beautiful cars, beautiful scenery, beautiful lady 👍🇦🇺
Love you and your cars Ell. I love my S2 as well. Never let her go!
Hello Elisa, I would say the same as you. I've also ridden all the Elises and Exige and in the end I came back to the Elise S1 because it's simply unique. It is also uniquely fast in the slalom, which we still prove at the CST Trophy. And yes, she is and will remain a family member. I wish you lots of fun with the two of them and hope to see you again sometime.
Thank you very much indeed for making so much effort, Elisa. And thank you for your honest assessment too. I love my Elise Final Edition, but you have made me very curious to drive an S1.
Thank you for your video Elisa
I still have a S1 since 1998 grey as yours and still have a lot of fun to drive her
I will never let her
Agree completely. when i got my 250 (Greta) I thought it would be the same to drive as Lilly my first Elise as she was a 220 Club Racer but they are totally different to drive. Do i love the new one more than the old one,,,,,, Errr no I loved my CR but the new one is so much more refined but like you I am still getting used to the feel of it as I am still not throwing it about like I did with Lilly.
I really had fun watching the comparo. Great stuff as usual!
Nice one Elisa, very nice video. the best wards you said,,,,,I don't want this day to end. That sums her up, every time I drive my Elis I don't want the day to end.......
Great to see a comparison from someone so familiar with them. Thank you for taking the time to share your passion for these cars and for driving. It is doubtful I'll ever own an Elise but driving one is now on my bucket list. In the meantime, I'll keep driving my BRZ but waiting for the chance to check out an Elise. Taking one to an autocross would be the ultimate!
I hope you get to drive an Elise anytime soon :D
The BRZ is a wonderful and special thing in its own right David, as is an Elise. One is not better than the other, merely different.
@@ElisaArtioli but not to an autocross i hope ☺️
@@paoloc.8804 HUH? If I didn't autocross, I never would he bought any of my Lotus cars.
Autocross in the USA definition...
I really really enjoyed watching your video thank you so much for making it,
thank you, I am really happy to hear that
Grazie Elisa! Bellissimo e interessantissimo video! Se dovessi comprare una Elise, sarei indeciso su quale scegliere tra le due🤔. Ciao!
Thank you very much. Very honest and good review. Was perfect.
I like Eliza's English. Clear, expressive))) I'm just trudging!)
Surely nobody better to compare the cars. I love the series 1. Such a beautiful, delicate shape. Lighter and purer. I love the new car too. Beautiful and powerful, but I agree. Series 1 wins
Bonjour de France. Je ne te connaissais pas et ton lien avec la lotus elise. Tes vidéos sont bien et c'est vraiment sympathique de voir ton attachement sincère et sentimental à cette jolie voiture.
Grande Elisa! Da fortunatissimo possessore di un S1 del 99 grigio scuro capisco il tuo sorriso quando passi al.S1 dalla S3 : gran macchina anche quella ma più simile ad altre. L' S1 diventerà ( è già) una leggenda assoluta nella storia dell'auto.
Bonito vídeo,
Estoy de acuerdo para sensaciones el S1, yo tengo el Vx220 2.2 atmo y es más parecido al S1 que al S4.
Un saludo Elisa..
amazing review
Love both! But I prefer Eli even more I think. I got the one in the middle, the S2! Chees, Elisa! ;)
Great video Elisa. Thanks for making the vid. Interesting insight into whilst Sunshine is perhaps a better all round car, the S1 still wins for pure driving pleasure. So the perfect combination is an S1 with above 200BHP! Enjoy…
Awesome! Can’t wait for the premiere
have you liked it?
@@ElisaArtioli I have! 😃 Always love your content. What a privilege for us to get a little insight into your world and hear your thoughts. Thank you so much!
Great comparison! I've been thinking about getting an Elise S1 for some time now :D
do it, you won't regret it :D
Lotus Elise Series 1. Same engine as my Rover
Nice vid too see that you actually were in it! It inspires me!
Lotuses never get old, a car company aside of the others (I mean it was before Lotus spirit died)
How cool is this girl what a story
Good review, thank you.
Such a good video, super helpful. I was leaning towards an S3 for looks, power and the seats but the way you are raving about Eli has me reconsider. Maybe the seats (and shifter) can be upgraded?
Keep in mind this was a present from her grandpa...I doubt she will want to change anything about this beauty of a car. Also, given this was the very first Elise, maintaining it as original as possible makes a lot of economic sense too.
Awesome good stuff 👏
I always wanted to ask you "which one is your favourite Elisa ?" Now I got tje answer 😆👍See you at Stelvio🇮🇹 #delightful driving😉
see you soon :D can't wait
How about the S2?
"Thank heaven for little girls
They grow up in
The most delightful way"
always #delightfuldriving :D
Sicuramente la leggerezza è la migliore delle doti (per me), ormai purtroppo non credo che assisteremo ad una riduzione dei pesi, anzi..... Ma veramente non faranno più la elise?
Looking forward to it!
:D
Dalle mie parti c'è una S1 rossa, bellissima, non so chi sia il proprietario, ma lo invidio molto (in senso buono intendo).
Mi piacerebbe molto poter provare una di queste piccole follie inglesi... poi però mi tocca tornare al volante della mia MG ZR 105, è permalosa e mi fa scherzi... una ruota mi ha cigolato per 2 anni prima di scoprire che voleva i cerchioni montati in una posizione precisa... sarà che è rossa! :P
Lotus forever, I prefer the Gold one!
Aircon - how is it in the final edition?
if it is good? yes works well
sei fantastica!!
uuuuuuu can't wait:)!!!
have you watch it :)?
@@ElisaArtioli absolutly yes!!! and now I was looking for an elise to buy.. as usual:) I continue to Dream..
decisamente la prima! Elisa sempre la n.1
Vai Elisa 🤩🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
grazieeee Gio
Ciao Elisa, sei meravigliosa! Come ti si può contattare in privato? 🤗
se vuoi puoi mandarmi una mail
@@ElisaArtioli A quale indirizzo? Io sono un po’ impedito nell’usare le tecnologie quindi magari c’è anche scritta ma non so dove
