Ouch! ;-)

Now, I know I've had a green 340R...and now a blue one but giving the option he had of a standard car....I wouldn't of changed it.

Visually I love the S1 Exige. Still not had one. I'd love a wee deal with this and my 340R

Blimey thats strong money for an 11 year old car although I guess rarity and desirability are the reason for that. I'm also in the Blue camp :wink:

How many years before the blue RS comes? ;)

The S1 Exige is a fantastic looking car. The one in this thread was completely the wrong colour originally, but I think that's what made it. Every S1 Exige i've seen has been an aggressive colour or silver. Orange, black, grey, yellow, red... I bet there weren't that many that left the factory in baby blue, and now there is 1 less of them.

I wonder if he'd have considered it if there were Scandal ones out there..

My Mrs would never contemplate a green car as she for some reason thinks they're unlucky??? I on the other hand love scandal green, Stu's 160 is an absolute dream! :thumbsup

I s'pose every little gesture to keep the tree huggers happy is positive.... :lol:

I would not done that to that exige. When I got my Sport 135 I was quite keen to put a 160 spoiler on the back. I was concerned that it would be a spoiler in more ways than one; now glad I chose not to. Think the spoilers look great, but would take something from the originality of a 135. Same goes for painting that Exige
