Hi Kirk… nice to see another S_E er over here… keep us up2date with yer new motor… i’m gonna try and get to KH on Sat.
Also Hi to new boy Chriss… welcome
Hi Kirk. welcome to the dark side. Should be a good day at KH tomorrow, would appear that Town and Country are bring their S2 Exige demo down to KH, so there could be two S2’s out on track see you tomorrow.

i think the s1 looks a bit dated with the beetle headlights
I believe ‘Classic’ is the word that’s being looked for here.
Ian
if kit car headlights are classic, then yes!
[Sharp in-take of breath] Shocked, wounded, hurt!
I can see the S1/S2 styling debate is going to provide more humourous exchanges in the same vein as ‘which colour’s best’.
Ian
ps. Gunmetal!
if kit car headlights are classic, then yes!
what do you mean “kit car”? there from a renault 5
Didn’t someone say something about the S1 being a classic already as it’s not being built anymore? Or something odd like that
AnywayI do also think the headlights are a little minging, the covers are the only thing that makes them sufferable But then if you don’t like them do something about it http://www.eliseparts.com/products_pages/lights/twinheadconversion.htm
As for styling, well I’m jaded to the looks of the S1 Exige as I see it every day now but just how it still get’s people all going “phwoar” can’t be denied! At bedford yesterday the amount of people coming up and basically drooling reminded me why I sold my soul and got it
Then I sae a CO S2 at the Classic festival at Brands… Well it was nice and my friend just said “well it’s better put together than yours” but then I think a 2 year old lego house is put together better than my Exige LOL!
So styling… I like the S2… I like the S1… Where’s that fence and my balancing pole
P.S. New Ali is the best colour

The Exige variety too.
Although I can’t help noticing it’s lights are rather square - “PHIL!?”
Ian
Arrrrrgh - Sorry i got it wrong

FOUR!!!
Now that is going to be harder to find a classic version of that!
