Could the steering wheel be made to look any more gash? The recent airbagged ones are bad enough but this is even worse. :roll:

The box is where you put your common sense after shelling out 48k for an Exige.

The spec is quite something.

But this is either a road car for somebody with truly too much money (=no need for half the spec on a road car) or someone with truly too much money BUT who will at least take the thing racing.

Bravo to the buyer.

Derek, leave your JPS on the drive. It should be a keeper.

I presume the box is to store your balls after telling the wife you just spent 49k on a Lotus!

Looks tidy though! :thumbsup

Jesus. :roll:

Much as I love Lotus, I'd plump for a R500 and pocket the change.

meh.

If they can sell it for £49k, then good on them. They're a business after all not a charity.

The Exige S is around £40k - £44k just now and they seem to be selling fine... so surely the Cup 260 needs to be priced higher - which it is. Simples!

Very nice but think I'd keep my 220 S and spend the £7k fitting the Hangar 111 300bhp conversion and ap 4 pots and it be faster and cheaper :D :thumbsup .

2p worth.
