Re: Direct Line query

Back in 2017 I was the first Cup 250 Direct Line had insured and it was not on their system. I have done the underwriter thing with Direct Line on various Lotus cars and had the same anxiety. The Cup was repaired as a Cup 250 without issue when someone bumped into the back of it. Cannot find the doc...

Re: Blue Cup 250 on Strathaven to Muirkirk Road

Yes same colour as your car in the pic. I either flashed my lights and waved or put my wipers on and waved in the Mac just outside Muirkirk.

Re: CUP 220 - S CUP or Exige v6

If you have the T-shirt it needs to be an Exige. :-) Went from a 250 Cup to a Exige Sport 350 as I preferred the power delivery and the noise. Only downside is the Exige is thirsty and the small fuel tank was annoying for me. Drive both and still get the Exige. Having garage door issues myself and t...

Re: Which Lotus

I went from a 250 Cup to an Exige Sport 350 as I never really bonded with the Elise. The 250 looks amazing, is fast and handles brilliantly but doesn't feel that quick until you look at the Speedo. Its great if your on it but lacked a sense of occasion when you hit the start button. Mine was a early...

Re: Dreaded Clutch Problem (Sport350)

My car will sometimes do that when cold as I reverse out the garage and then put it into first gear to reposition forward. As soon as I start driving and by the end of my road it won't do it again. My daily driver's clutch fully releases with plenty of pedal movement left where as the Exige is at th...

Re: Where are you getting your tyres from?

Have used Pneus online and you can search a local tyre fitter who may also accept delivery. However I would only use a recommended person to fit tyres.

I use R D tyre service in Glasgow as they are competitive on price and more importantly look after your wheels.

Re: Dreaded Clutch Problem (Sport350)

Watching this thread with interest and slight apprehension in case the Exige 350 clutches are made out of chocolate. I have had my share of issues in the past but everything has been fixed. It just takes so long for Lotus to get parts out. Neil Turner was quite good at getting things resolved but th...

Re: Yellow S2 Elise at Porsche Perth today

They were really friendly when I went in a few months ago and admited they were still getting used to the brand. Mate used to cycle with one of the owners.

Considered a Cayman GTS but it was too easy to get into. 😁

Re: Newbie - Indecisive!

Good choice. 8) For info - sonething like 103 Sports Racers built. 53 of them were both manual-box and 'charged - the spec I was looking for. Took 5 months of waiting for one to appear in one of 3 colours I was prepared to look at. Probably worth exactly the same as when you bought it. Almost free ...
