We need more news like this, a refreshing break from the climate of terror crap we are used to.

One of my mates just sent me this link via e-mail - with the attached comment

By the way guys, can you all club together and buy me an Exige please? I'm pretty busy at work and won't be able to build one like I'd intended.

Glad that you all agree with it, especially as SE would of course, do it even better.

I know how he feels I was just about to start my V8 conversion but alas my ingrown toenail means I wont be able to complete it / buy all the parts.

Hint. Hint.

In all seriousness It's nice to see guy's clubbing together to help out
