New V6 Exige S

Post by scottmitchell » Tue Sep 10, 2013 12:15 am

Hey Guys,

Been a member before but can't for the life of me remember my old username/email so new account it is!

Had 3 Lotus's now:

2006 S2 Exige - Ardant Red
2008 S2 Exige S - Burnt Orange
and now a 2013 V6 Exige S - Midnight black I think its called.

V6 is by far the most epic car I have ever had the pleasure of driving, originally took my S2 in for a service, had a test drive and couldn't say no!

Anyhoo, heres some pictures.

Nice one, heartening to hear you think it is soo good that all logic goes out the window to become 'I must have one'.
Do love burnt orange though, my favourite colour, black is certainly more subtle.

I used to live fairly close to you (across in Ashkirk Place), I remember seeing the orange Exige at your place.
Seen the black v6 around the city a couple of time too, looks great :)

Cheers Guys :)

I was completely taken by the black, used to think it would be too subtle but it just looked fantastic on the V6 :D

Corranga what are you driving now?

That'll give your neighbours something to talk about!

Lots of danger of taking a car into Murray for a service and having to walk past various bits of class hardware, believe me...

My silver then green S1 used to sit in Ashkirk next to Erica's red Vx220. The Vx is gone now, but the S1 remains, though is tucked away in my garage most of the time. I'm on the Kingsway now, my dark grey Alfa 159 can usually be seen outside 8)

Actually, my brother lives at the top end of your street and spotted you last week, and commented that he saw a shiny and new black Lotus shaped thing (he's no car person) and was ready to give me a right bollocking for buying a new car :lol:

Looks good. 8)
Think I also saw the orange exige around town a fair bit so will look out for this one.

Much as I like having the Type72 exige, I don't think I will ever get another black car tho :blackeye
