That's the problem - the yellow is under the lacquer!

hhmmmm, i see i see. Its not my cup of tea, but then i dont personally care how my car looks. The dirtier the better.
If you take pride in the looks of your car, and you dont like them, theres a huge demand for 2nd hand OZ's so you should have no trouble selling them.

Got to a signwriting place and ask them to vinyl the lip black? If they are able to shrinkwrap a whole cor I'm sure they could cover up that yellow.

Don't think it looks that bad myself but then it might look different in reality. So are the wheels instead of an Exige and have you gone for LSS/Nitrons too?

Derek has gone on about a "sport racer" all weekend and he has finally gone back to Sheffield this afternoon to give me peace and quiet! We did have a look at MMC today and he still thinks the white Exige is the business! Personally, I hate it bit hey, I'm only the registered keeper of the car and what does it matter what I think! If we get something else, I'd like it to be in keeping with the bright theme that we have at present so as not to let you down regarding my clothing, footwear etc., matching the car!!!!

Hi Karen,
I only bought the 135R as Derek would not sell me the Kermit! I've told him to keep it! White Exige will be tough to keep clean.....wait till you see pics of todays run!

You won't ever forget that will you?

I'm surprised you managed to come away from MMC without a new car!

I love that white exige, made me want to sell a kidney and buy it. Was v tempted to go for a test-drive, but luckily against it. Next time at MMC, I think I'll wear blinkers.
