Red Exige S2

Spotted last night joining the M74 from the slip road at Uddingston heading west. Stretching the legs nicely with a Porker in tow, probably sounded good too but all I could hear was the Busso in my stealth Sportwagon GTA :)

Re: What's the views - new car, at least it's a Lotus

I can't really comment much on driving experience of other Lotus cars but the longer I own and the more I drive the S1 Exige the more I realise quite how special the little car is. Sure plenty variants of Lotus are faster and no doubt 'easier to live with' and engineering advances of newer models me...

Re: Thoughts on Exiges?

I guess the decision making process does ultimately go back to the heart or head rules. I knew it felt potentially dangerous, on the edge and perhaps even foolhardy to go for the S1 but it felt right once I'd found the car, I knew that. Certainly the perception one gleans from online reading is the ...

Re: Thoughts on Exiges?

Interesting. Suppose I was thinking of looking at a low mileage S1 (~19k miles) - anything in particular I should be checking? Where are you based? If you're interested in seeing one first hand I'll happily take you out for a drive in my S1 Exige. Firmly not for sale I must add though sorry! I just...

Re: SIDC - Saturday 24th March, 9am to 1pm - Knockhill

Yep that was a brilliant way to spend a Saturday morning 😀
Really well run event and a joy to explore the capabilities if even only a little of the Exige and nice meeting the folks I chatted to. Look forward to seeing some snaps of the day
Cheers

Re: V Max....?

Vmax'd the old E34M5 Touring I owned a good few years back, pretty impressive on the Autobahns of Germany driving a 1991estate car at 176mph and felt totally stable with it. That straight six was epic 😉

Re: SIDC - Saturday 24th March, 9am to 1pm - Knockhill

I've got a slot for this now so will be heading over from Glasgow in the Exige 😀
Is there a convoy heading across from my way? Perhaps on previous posts - I'll take a look!

Re: Blue S1 Strathaven

Where is this place in Strathaven? I'm looking for a good body shop - seems to be well regarded?

Can't find any contact details for the company?
