I'll entertain offers around the £10k mark

 

 

Great car, come on you lot!

TX.

 

Cheers TX

 

Looks well worth the money, Chris!

I see your old GTR is up for grabs too!

 

Blimey Mark, not seen your name on here in a while.... i heard you defected to the Lotus camp....

 

Hey up Ron, how's things???

Have done Combe a couple of times in the Exige, really great track :thumbup:

 

All good ere mate, had to throw another gbax in the scoob, it broke...LOL!!!

Gone off combe now, the cars too quick for the run off area thats there.... prefer airfield days, notdone one in a while though, too busy offroading..!!

 

Mark,

how's it going? Didn't realise you'd got an exige !!!! I fookin love exiges, tell me it's not an exige s in white as I'd have to kill you through jealousy, lol. How you finding the exige, get some pics up in other marques mate. Be interested to here how you're getting on with it, exige s is deffo on my list of cars to own - will have to wait until prices drop below 20k though Seen a couple around £23k so hopefully by end of next year

If you're ever in my neck of the woods I'd appreciate a spin round the block

Yep, my old 34 is back up for sale, awesome car, I'd buy it back in a heartbeat if I had the money, damm my Mrs wanting to move to a bigger house, lol

Chris

 

Ron, that car owes you nothing by now so i'd bet a new gearbox didn't hurt too much! Vid of Combe for you - still learning! Lotus Exige S - Castle Combe - December 08 on Vimeo

Chris - afriad it is an Exige S Running a Gotham ECU and bigger injectors so it's putting out about 250 bhp now It's dark grey though rather than white If you do plan to buy one, just give me a shout. I may be selling next year but not decided if I like the *new* Datsun that much yet! Either way you are welcome to a go in it. The experience is a must!

Pics here:

S2000 Forums -> Exige S update...

I do miss the old scoobs though...

(BTTT)

 

Loving the exige mark. Does it feel quick? I know your backside is about 2 inches off the ground which helps but do you get the same buzz of acceleration like when the scooby comes on boost? Think I need to go test drive one.

I love the new datsun also, looks much better in the flesh than in the pictures, don't think I'll be able to afford one of those until about 2015

 

Very quick! I've take a few people out in it who have been fairly shocked It's not quite the shove of a turbo, it's more linear like an Evo, but due to the weight you do feel some shove. It's the overall package though, strong brakes, lightning reactions etc.

 

I need to get one

Anyone want to buy a scooby

 

Might do in January if its still up for sale

 

As requested, a few more pics

I'm starting to have serioius doubts about selling the car now so if anyone wants it they better be quick before I change my mind

 

Added in a comment about offers accepted in original post.

Best of luck with sale. Hang in there as mine eventually sold, just takes time for right buyer to come along.

Nice car mate, where abouts are you based, what kind of BHP is she running??

 

Car is running 388bhp and 340 lbs ft torque.

I'm located about 15 mins from Junction 25 of the M25

 

 

How many owners has it had?
Is it a UK car?

PPS whats the very lowest you would take - PM if you like

 

Chris YHPM

 

is it a uk car ?

 

yes,
and a very nice one two

 

Im surprised your only making 380 brake with that set up and turbo? Surely more closer to the 400+ mark?

 

Set up to be safe and reliable, could probably squeeze a bit more but don't like pushing things to the limit

 

why use the 't' version instead of the 'h' . i thought the t was a 450 turbo and the h the 400 turbo

jim

 

Exactly, Although my mate has just made 452/381 on a H !!!

 

**** knows

Ask the previous owner, he spec'd the car and carried out all the mods !!!

Maybe he intended to mod further so bought a turbo capable of running more power????

Either way, the car is a hoot to drive, is plenty quick enough and there's no worry that the turbo is being over stressed.

The next owner can up the power if they want to, I'm quite happy with it's current state of tune - bhp/torque figures are for pub talk and aren't everything, it's how the car drives that's important! I can get a dyno print out showing an extra 30 bhp/torque depending on which rollers I take the car to but thought I'd be honest with the power output

Most cars I've seen running alleged 400+ with similar mods don't actually make anything near that or need a drop of meths
