Well I’ve done it! Sold my EliseS2 and bought an Exige!! I have to ask myself why oh why did I bother with the Elise! The Exige ROCKS!!Is it me or does it handle a little different to the Elise…the back breaks away sooner. Think I’ll book up on the Oxford airfield day…need some help with my technique!Off for another blast…Grin grin grin…

Congrats Dominic - welcome to the House Of Fun! - Exige just sticks and sticks then oversteers - S2 Elise was set up to understeer - what amazes me about Exige is the sheer level of grip tho’ [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/shocked.gif[/image]SimonE

nicely done Dominic!You know it makes sense!Would be good to see another Exige on the airfield day too…hope you can make it.

Dominic, Don’t forget the tyre setup you have. The car will handle differently because of the AVS Sports on the rear. If you are going to be pushing the car hard then I would suggest putting A039’s on the back or A048’s all round then you will really see how well the car grips.Glad to hear your enjoying it though [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/smile.gif[/image]

David - you are absolutely spot on there, I currently have AVS on the rear (for longevity purposes [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/wink.gif[/image])have kept 39s on the front, noticed quite a difference in normal road driving - won’t be fitting AVS again…

The car is fantastic David!(sorry trying hard not to upset you!)…The only thing that kept me away was the heat!..Boy with the weather and the heat the engine generates…PHEW!I remember your advise re the tyres now!Will change!Anyone any advise on best place to buy AO39/48’s? Im southern based.Thanks.
