I think so too... 
Going by PH there's not much on offer. Not many if any N/A Exiges or S with performance pack.

Not too sure that they are actually going up, but would agree that they don't seem to be coming down.
Take the prices on PH with a pinch of salt though. These are all "wish" prices. I wouldn't think that too many of them will be sold at the asking price. No doubt there will also be many that aren't sold at all and will be traded-in or retained.
All that said I seem to recall that a couple of guys on here struggled to get shot of theirs for more than £20k probably about a year ago (no names mentioned
)
I think a more interesting thing to watch is the S1 exige prices. There seems to be a lot of long term elise/exige owners now swapping or looking into swapping into S1 exiges. I know you shouldn't buy a car if you are looking for an appreciating asset but I think that this may well happen with the S1 exige. I wouldn't mind one myself but don't think I could live without the toppless experience

04 plate N/A Exiges are the ones you want, worth paying another 2k over asking price for them. Yes

Lots of dreamers. I sold mine in a day when I had it up at 19995 and for that amount, and could probably have got the same now.
I offered £18 for the topgear miley black one and the guy was thinking about it, that eventually sold at £18.5 so they are still falling.
Cant see a fortune being lost if you bought a £20ish k one now.

I would love to say that my only problem was lack of garage space, but I think my fiscal position is probably a bigger issue

Stratstone Lotus have an S on an 06 plate and 3.5k miles for £26k.
I am not that up on prices at all but the S seems to be getting more affordable as each day goes by and seeing most S models over £30k this one looks ok but not sure if its the best spec.

i think they may stabilise till the S prices dip below £25k - i know i'd happily spend another few £k for an SC - its well worth it - there was one at £25.5 with 7k miles on it, 06 earlier this year - in amongst my ariel delays was tempted!

There's now a 2004 47k miler up for £18.5k on Pistonheads.... not too bad
