Another quick question guys, couple exiges (S2) ive been looking at dont have air conditioning, does it get really warm in the cabin without this? Was reading the latest evo which has a buyers guide for exiges and was saying its hard to shift the exiges that dont have air con. And finally what are the yoko A048 like in the wet or just in general using at this time of year?

No problem with 48's in the wet as long as they have a reasonable amount of tread left, though obviously experience with the combination helps.

Can not answer on the A/C as its never a problem in the Elise, but I would have thought it would be dependent on how much slow commuting you did in Summer, and more important down South than in Scotland.

Exiges without A/C do seem to suffer resale- I dont really know why.

Whilst its useful (its one of the only things I miss from my s2 exige) its not like its the finest A/C system in a car. And it seems to break a lot now the cars are getting older.

I did used to put it on when on track at Knockhill in the summer as it does get warm in the car.

Anybody know how much power the A/C absorbs on the track?

None, aircon turns off when engine is on full load...

They are prone to cracked pipes.

Hi everyone, picked up a laser blue exige s from Swindon yesterday, flew down and then drove the car back up the road. Really happy with the car, only thing is just found out yesterday that im away on mon for 7 weeks . Will get some pics up once ive washed the car as after the drive up the road yesterday its badly in need of one.

Good work Dean, hope you managed to get them down past the numbers we were talking about in the pms

[Deany1986]

Yeah JJ down to what you thought I would be able to get it for, seems like a good deal . In really good condition, previous owner traded it in there for a porsche.
