1 : 18 for me, in black as standard, and you heathens can repaint yours if you must !!
Nobody has mentioned a price figure… What is the ballpark ??
Well if we’re getting on to colour then (and I know it’s really MrBean’s call but) I’m not sure I agree with you mike.
I’m never going to win the Gunmetal/Titanium argument, so I’d plump for one of the classic S1 Exige colours - New Ali or Chrome Orange.

New Ali New Ali New Ali !!!
Chrome Orange
I have never posted before in these chattrooms but this one is worth it, I would be interested (6 units) I don’t mind chrome orange (that’s the one I have ) [color:“orange”] [/color] Preferably 1:18 though 1:43 will also do
Isaac [color:“orange”] [/color]
Welcome Issac!
I want 1 too. … But must be S1 …Exige… Color is of course B L A C K…
Why don’t you just make a special Exiges.com edition (it should say that in the box) in all the original Lotus colours, make a few more and even sell it to (some) chosen car model stores?
I’m sure that will give our car some deserved publicity and elevate its status.
Who knows, maybe it could even bring up its residuals a notch
Just bought a S1. Put me down for one

Only for cars with an “www.exiges.com” sunstrip
New Ali has to be the go!

Sounds good to me - then I’ll take one …
In black
In black
But Andy as yours is black with silver bits (metallic ) and not proper black I reckon you should have one in New Ali instead
ps - I might have a garage in 3 weeks time too!!! Weh hey
Can I have one too!
RIGHT
The good news is we can do it.!!!
The bad news is tooling cost is �1500 before we start for a 1/43 scale …Minimum run is 50 units BUT against tooling costs thats � 30 before model costs…against 100 its �15 etc…
Am working on unit costs but Mr Chapmans Ghost wants approx 6%
We can have DIY white matal kits , ready made and personalised with reg nos etc…all for “EXTRA” sir…
Will report back.
Sounding promising. Especially the personalisation part! Correct colour and reg for each car would be amazing. Totally unique. I’d pay top dollar (within reason!) for a customised model of my baby…
Sounds good, as long as the quality is there.
I suppose the option of a motorsport engine cover would be too much to ask?
If quality is good and price is reasonable I�m pretty sure I can buy at least twice as many than the 6 originally thought for some friends. Let me know if/when you decide to go ahead (better if at least a sample is available).
Hope you can do it.
I’ll have a couple also. Anychance of 1:18 scale though?
Why was there never any models made of the S1 Exige anyway?
Any news yet…I’m itching to get my hands on one.
