Two sub 40k Exige S1 for sale on Pistonheads

There are currently two nice Exige S1 for sale on Pistonheads. A silver one for 38.5k and a Laser Blue one for 35k.
With nearly no S1s offered in the sub 40k price bracket for the last 18 months they do look like good offers.

it’s nice to see some for a reasonable price

I’m surprised the silver car above hasn’t sold already, I assume it’s just not a popular colour or something!

The laser blue car looks very nice for the price, just a shame it doesn’t have those desirable motorsport seats Klaus :wink:

Would be interesting to find out the asking price of the silver car with 3,700 miles on the clock (POA).

I found the car on the CarAndClassic web site including a price tag of £69995.

I can’t get excited by cars like the silver one, you could look at it but not drive it. They should be used, even if it’s just tge odd romp on a summer day.

Advert says no VHPD! Something very odd about that, can’t be ‘original’ surely?

Strange that, the seller seems to have no idea about the engine. The pictures clearly show a proper VHPD engine, even the resonator valve is still in place.
But I agree that kind of car is not very exciting. Too expensive to be driven.

There’s now 5x silver S1’s on PH, plenty to choose from…

That one’s mine .PM/mail if interested in more details etc.

Well, silver is the best colour :wink:

Interesting to see what the true ‘market value’ might be, I guess we’ll see if the auction one sells this time round. I’ve felt for a while that £40k is probably about the right money for a decent example; FWIW I reinsured mine earlier this year at ‘market value’ but with an estimate of £45k even though the only ones for sale at the time were £60k plus.

Will be very interested to see what the Silverstone Exige makes but at 15% buyer and 15% seller premium the auction house has got to be laughing all the way to the bank - money for old rope :slight_smile:

Is Silverstone Auctions run by the same Nick Whale who had the Brum Lotus dealership in the early 2000s?

Yes, I believe so

Yup. :neutral_face:

The ad of the silver Exige has disappeared from Pistonheads so it might has sold. Wouldn’t surprise me as it looked like a good offer.

Edit:
Looks like it’s still for sale on Seloc, you can find the ad here:
