Blummin' beautiful that. I'd love an Exige. S1 for pure rawness or the newer RGB 260 limited edition version.

Ver nice, but you wouldn't want to make the mistake of putting your phone down on the wrong part of the center console

Drove a new Sport350 at Murray in Edinburgh a few weeks back, cracking car.. but too focused for what I had in mind, shame because I think they look phenomenal.

I think an Evora 400 is more suitable for my requirements at the moment... but I don't know if I can justify such a big lump of cash on a car which will only see a couple of thousand miles a year and since I'm a Lotus virgin, I'm not sure about reliability/build/residuals either.


Cheers,
Grant

I got news for you bro,

There's someone out there who just paid less than £2000 for ditch's old WRX that would smash this all over the place....He's the real winner! ������

Seriously though, sweet car, love the paint scheme!

Lovely


Is it just a weekend toy, or can you use as a "daily" (obviously not as a hack though)

Weekend for me, but I actually did 7k miles in my last one over the last 20 months so try and use them as much as possible.

I wouldn't want to use it as a daily, although I know a few who do.

Wrong as usual £2400 actually, you don't get that sort of power for less than £2k.

Nice mowta Zip, welcome to the yellow car club.
