Hi all, I've had my Exige V6s for 6 months now and I do adore the thing. But anything more than about an hour in it and my lower back gets really sore. I've tried using a camping mat as extra padding but it doesn't help. Has anyone suffered the same issue and found a solution? Cheers, Ben.

Lotus Bristol have an Elise Grey 390FE coming soon if its of interest to anybody. Unfortunately it is too late to change the spec of the car, much to my disappointment.

I have seen the white one, although not my favourite colour it does look very nice. Looks a good price and very low miles too. Im still waiting to hear back about the green 350, which is only about 30 miles from me as that looks ideal.

Thank you, I've managed to find the chap and I've sent him a message through FB. Just waiting to hear back...

That looks excellent! They won't let me in the group because I don't own one so I will try to find him on FB. Thank you for the heads up!

You're right, I think I am just going to have to take the plunge with a deposit and get in early once I see something suitable. I looked and test drove an R8 at the beginning of the year, great car, looked and sounded lovely but I quickly realised it had the same problem as I had with an old M3 and that was its too much of an all-rounder, it felt special maybe 20% of the time, whereas I think an exige will feel special all the time. Might get some hate for this but I don't get on with the looks of the Evora, I can't put my finger on why exactly but I just don't. I'm also very keen on the Exige's roof off capabilities!

I know too well, at my end of the price range they moving very quickly! I saw online the LF1 that Will had which looked lovely. Central Lotus had a dark grey S in that would have been perfect but by the time I could go and view it, it had already been sold! Originally I had set my budget at 40k but have since realised that it may not be enough hence looking up to 45k. Unfortunately for me, it seems prices are on the up! I have toyed with the idea of buying a year or 2 old 350 at the 55k mark but realistically it's just too much for me at the moment.

Hello all, I am looking to buy an Exige S or 350 but they are a little thin on the ground at the moment. I am open to most colours and would like the race and convenience/comfort packs, premium sports pack would be a bonus too! Coupe or roadster I don't mind and manual is a must. Budget is £40k-£45k. Thanks for looking.
