Wasn’t this the one for sale at a dealer not to long back? If you could get it for �23k…

Yep Mark A’s old car, a bid of �23k would definately own it, great car as well the pictures on the ad dont do it justice.

VHPD sounds good…LOL…but the mileage is bit high around 65k or more?

Not at all, for the spec/history of that car. A VHPD would almost certainly need an engine refresh/rebuild, if it’s already lasted that long.

what i meant was the overall mileage on that car…:slight_smile:

I dont know why there is such a big fuss over mileage on an elise/exige, people should buy on condition rather than mileage.
Take this car as an example, its got a Honda engine and box thats done around 14k mls in total,
Suspension has been changed/nitrons and refreshed in the last 10k mls, uprated brakes/ali belled discs its got seats out of a 6k mls car and its had a proper full strip down re-paint in the last 12 months, why would 65k mls on the speedo be a problem ?

It was for sale at jct600 in leeds but was on sale or return with the seller. From what i remember it was up at 26,995 with them.

Evosal - on the button there with your comments.

I’d even go so far as to say an original S1 Exige with 5k miles on the clock would probably be a dog with loads of works being required before giving it beans on some nice B roads or track.

Agreed, these cars dont seem to stand well.

Deffo a condition thing. Ive seen 2010 spec S2’s with wishbones and uprights that look like they have been on the bottom of the sea. JSR have done suspension refreshes (wishbones, bushes, hubs etc) on 2009 MY cars with teens mileage.

If the condition is good, then the condition in good, if you know what i mean.

anyone knows if this orange car been sold?

Nice mark up!

There could be a nice VHPD one for sale soon if you ask me nicely…or even rudely :crazy:
