I wanna be an Exige!

Gav cheers for the run out today in the gt4 the car is stunning, loved every minute of it.

finally managed to get them together -







Very nice Gav

Lovely, very lucky boy.

Very nice Gav …
Now say you could only keep one of your Loti for road and track ? … which one would it be ?

Andy
Thats a nasty question to ask!! The answer is very easy–Sell the House/Wife/Girlfriend etc etc etc
Keep ALL the Loti!! :smiley:
Hope Lisa doesnt have access to Exiges.com!!!

Wouldnt like to have to choose between them Andy, they all have something differnent going to make them worth while having.
Not that i have any intentions of getting rid of any of them but if i were just to keep one it would probably be the 2-11, it will be the most desirable in the future and is the most exciting of them to drive.

With all of the cars i have from Lotus I feel as im just the caretaker of them in many respects, id like to think they will still be round in 50 years time and someone will still be enjoying them long after ive gone.

Know what you mean Gav … and I’m really, really glad you didn’t say you would keep the V6 Cup … that’s the last thing I’m going to say …

If it had to get rid of one now the V6 would probably be the first to go, its the only one I dont own outright, still got a couple of years of chucky on it and is the most expensive of them to run.

Ha ha … yes but in “some” circumstance :wink: , you may need to consider just one … in other words very tempted to ditch the S1 Honda and go with a V6

Very nice! :clap:

My memory isn’t as good as it used be but the first time I met you Gav was Croft at a BMW car club trackday - I was in a silver S1 Exige. I think we were the only Lotus’s there.

If I remember correctly you had an Orange S2 Exige - what happened to that car?

It was sold on at the end of the 2007 season to make way for the 2-11.

Its still around, the guy who bought it off me (Keith) ran it in the 2008 season then sold it to another guy called James who still has it and races it every now and again. It still wears the same design i gave it with the white and black stripes and its always nice to see it in the paddock.

Funny you mention that car, ive just had a few pictures that Ben and Tap took of it back then framed for the wall…

:slight_smile:

I don’t think you were racing at the at the time of the BMW trackday. I remember the backend of that car well though :blush:

Can’t remember the year??? When did buy that one?

Very nice, like the 2-11 looks great hopefully see it again soon last time I saw it you were just starting to rebuild it.

Great Gav.

Looking great Gav.(posted after 3am!! Night out in the Toon mate?)

No, pretty dry 2weeks holiday Steve, just my body clock has shifted along (im a sucker for late night discovery programs)

Not that I can afford it at the moment Andy, but if you ever decide to get rid of the orange beast, I may have won the lottery by then… :smiley:

Is that a hint mate!!!

At least there would be no fuel pump issues! :wink:
