Bit of a cheeky one really, but one of my mate is looking at the possibilty of buying an S2 Exige in the spring and wants to try one as he's never driven a Lotus, his current shed is a Corvette.
I've assured him he'll fall in love when he drives one so was wondering if anyone in the central belt might be up for showing him round theirs and taking him for a wee drive, maybe even give him a wee shot? I know it's a bit of a cheeky request so fully understand if no takers.
Cheers
Mark

Seeing Mike's VX in action recently, it did raise some interesting questions about future options for quicker Lotus.

A tweaked 2.2 is a peach of an engine, much better than the cammy NA Exige IMO...
