Not really a newbie but....

Post by Simon82 » Thu May 22, 2014 10:42 am

Picked up my first Lotus (Exige S V6) from Murray's a couple of weeks ago.
Been around the forum for a while and attended some trackdays with my civic but hoping to be a bit more active now :)

:welcome Simon.

I was also looking at your car at MMC before you bought it (along with the Laser Blue Elise S) and I think the car suits red very well, especially with the silver wheels.

Thanks for the welcome guys :)
First track outing in it on Monday so hopefully get more of a feel for the car.

I opted to get the black wheels put on the car instead of the silver ones Steve although it did look good on the silver ones too I preferred the look with the black
