After about 6 years of membership on SE I finally managed to work out how to upload pictures this morning - in a rather poorly mad-friday induced hangover.

So without further a do - here is my very first SE picture - maybe Ill be able to enter the calendar competition next year! Ill post more later

Congrats on new car....... and your new found photo uploading skills

Nice pic. Like the fine film of dirt on the car

. Shows you are using and plenty of shiny photos elsewhere to see. Is the tow loop and arrow standard at the rear or added?

Exige looks better every time I see one.

car is getting used plenty - its only a weekend warrior, but gets given plenty when I'm out.
Miss my Evora, but its nice to be back in an Exige.

Justin - yup that was me at Fennel last weekend

Towing eyes aren't standard - but i kinda liked the "cup" look

oh and ignore the change in number plate = Pete was trying to disguise my car for his Facebook site

Hope you enjoy the car. That was the one I spec'd but didn't buy. Apparently the premium interior is a big improvement.

Great colour and great choice of roads for a weekend blast. Was out that way for a wee run today.

Great car ...... isn't it !!!

Cheers guys.

Mikie not sure if the car was specced for customer - Craig said is was due to be their new demonstrator (which was then swapped out for the blue one and red one when I took the yellow)? If it is - you specced a very highly desirable car. Its awesome.

Interior is the full leather premium pack - but as an extra they added in the contrast yellow stitching which is normally reserved for the premium sport (half leather) interior. The car also came with the performance brake upgrade,….which is,…in a word AWESOME. Also has race pack - and I do use the 'race' setting for the traction control a lot. Seems to suit my driving style which is more about clean lines than showboating….. Sport is a bit too loose and tour is a bit sticky on the throttle response I feel.

Delighted with the car - like I say, sad that the Evora has gone (Ill post pics of it soon), but it is nice to be back in a Yellow Exige after all this time.

Im trying to run it as much as I can at the moment - for me a mild winter would be great….and next year hopefully we can use it a bit more - hopefully at the Alford Speedfest amongst other things.

Oh and just to explain the last 2 pictures. I was desperate for the car - and it missed the trailer to Edinburgh - so Craig was dispatched to pick the car up personally. As we know Craig is the worlds most careful guy I had total confidence in this plan with the added advantage that he ran the car in for me and gave it its first oil change before I collected it!
