Itā€™ll definitely be used. Looking forward to car shows and meets starting back up.

That is stunning and Iā€™m definitely jealous. If I owned that I would never sell itā€¦

Looks fabulous in the photographs! :thumbup:

Would love to see it in the flesh sometime in the near future.

Fantastic car, congratulations. The sunshine really brings the Chrome Orange to live. The best colour for an Exige S1, of course :smiley:

Congrats on the purchase !

As the previous owner, feel free to ask me any questions you may have.

Youā€™ve bought a great car.

Youā€™ve sold me (via Lotus Silverstone) an amazing car; Iā€™ll do my upmost to be a good custodian.

Where in the country are you? Get it to the Lotus on track day in August at Donington. Iā€™ll be there with my S1 Exige, which Iā€™d the correct colour, yellow.

Iā€™m in Oxford.

When in August is Lotus on Track?

17th. Itā€™s sessions, which I have never done before but it should be ok. LoT driving standards are generally very good so Iā€™m happy to take my Exige out with them. Less sure when there is a bunch of Clioā€™s, Ginettas or Caterhams falling into the gravel.

EFA :thumbup:

Enjoy Hethel today Palmergeddon :sunglasses:

Thanks Rob. Great day out, thank you for hosting - it was nice to return 001 20 years after it left the factory.

Wasnā€™t me hosting but Iā€™m sure you met Mr Borrett :+1:

It wasā€¦ lol, sorry!

Itā€™s fine, he sent a picture of 001 yesterday :+1:

When I read Rob in your name I assumed it was the other Rob - you know what they say when you assume stuff! :rofl:
