took B&C’s graphite Exige S for a spin (thinking of upgrading in Dec). Very impressed. Great how all the power is available from low rev’s, although I miss the ‘change over bang’ that my current S2 has (induction kit + stage 2). I really think B&C should put a louder exhuast on… detracted from the experience quite a bit! Overall very impressed and even more tempted to take the plunge (despite the current one having cost effectively �12k for 15 months motoring!!! )
for those thinking of buying an S, there are some great offers available until March 2007 - for example air con, sport pack and lifestyle pain for �750 - saving �2500 off list!! or touring pack for a grand (half price!)
my potential spec:
Exige S 33995
air con, lifestyle
paint + sport pack 750
touring pack 1000
on the road costs 950
stage 2 exhaust 300?
momo removeable wheel 200?
reverse sensors 0
�37195… probably �20k for the current one (maybe �23k privately??)… so upgrade is �17195 worst case, �14195 best case
which is obscene!!!
but cars aren’t an investment
