After selling my Elan M100 last Summer, and spending nearly 7 months looking towards buying an Exige S2, I have finally found the Exige for me. It’s a standard 2006 Exige S 220 with the touring pack and an uprated sports exhaust (sounds ace!). Can’t wait to pick it up soon and get out in it come Spring. Thought I’d post a photo but I will get more in due course.
Successfully collected the car Saturday morning and had a brilliant, yet cautious, 2 hour drive home. As you can imagine I arrived home with a massive smile on my face, overwhelmed by the drive and stunned by the cars vigorous performance. I can safely say that during my first drive I have barley touched upon the limits of the Exige, so I am greatly looking forward to the year ahead and many more to come. Hopefully I will get some good ‘arty’ photos on-line soon. I’m sure it will make a good new project for Tash and her camera.
The chap I bought my car from lived on a similar road to yours by the look of it, his neighbour from accross the road used to complain that the orange was so bright that it bothered her when she was sat in her front room, and asked him to move his car!!
That’s funny, but I’m sure it would also be a right pain. Will hopefully get some good photos over the next few weeks. Just got myself some DoDo Juice Wax. Yes it’s orange! Hopefully will get to see how good it is soon.
In true Lotus fashion I arrived late by 30 minutes to pick-up Tash from the train station because of having to jump start the Exige after being sat for 3 weeks. Never the less we took it for a good drive on Saturday and even managed to take a recreation of the photo which was published in Evo 89 using a fellow orange Exige (Cup 240).
