Not sure what this debate is all about.

Can you actually make a S2 look worse than when it left the showroom? <BG>

More courtesy of pissed on heads. What is the world coming to indeed?

Mind you, I have noticed that it's generally the S1-ers that feel the need to 'improve' their cars...

haha, is that blue one not tuts old car? (or parts of it....)

dont think it really counts in this thread as it was a beast until it caught fire! (and doesnt look like a max power cover car).

My recollection of the blue one was that it had a hoor of an engine, and prob needed extra downforce (bear with me...) and therefore took aerodnamic cues from a proven design, the S1 zeege.

The S2 featured in this thread also has a more powerful engine using chav gas, but it took aerodynamic cues from a fridge.

Put short, I like the blue one - therefore its all been sensibly done

Cute hoor is a Hiberno-English term used to describe someone who will do whatever it takes to achieve what they want. Usually a cute hoor will not break the law but it is seen as willing to bend and use the law, use people or use situations to come out on top, by pulling dishonest or misleading stunts en route.

In this context cute means cunning. The word hoor (pronounced hoo-r) is based on the English word whore, but in the term cute hoor has no sexual connotations.

from Wiki

And here was me thinking it was a spelling mistake

Just as well I'm almost colour blind what a shocker proper Exige too, what possesses some people

That's not an Exige, its a Motorsport Elise, a proper race car, and therefore I think it looks fine.

haven't read the whole thing... but an S2 VHPD? The only car I can think of with that engine were the 100 or so S2 Sport 190s?

Which would mean it actually produced 190bhp.... I suppose it could also have been bought as an upgrade engine. You could always buy the VHPD separately (I assume that stands true for the S2 version as well)

Since it ain't road legal, you can't really levy the chavved up insult at it; looks seriously like a piece of function over form (even though I've seen more attractive poops)

It is South West Lotus centre thats selling it so I guess they`ve probably got contacts for engines and stuff.

Looks meaty though.

You talking about the car you linked yeah?

Haven't seen anyone diss it? I certainly wouldn't - in fact, if I had money for a track only Lotus, it'd bear a very close resemblance to that!

(with an Audi/Honda - or RST V8, if I win the lottery!)
