I took the 500 out to play in the mountains this morning
My mates in the Lotus club go for a blast up one of the mountains here a few times a month. It's 50 klm of fantastic roads and usually done at up to twice the speed limit and around 6 am to avoid the police
It looked like rain today so I left the Elan in the garage and took the 500

It was a hoot! I have not really pushed the 500 until today and I had just as much fun as I would have had in the Lotus.
Obviously it was not as quick as a Lotus but at one point I was keeping up with a few of the Elises
If you haven't given your 500 a good flogging yet go find a mountain road!
