Exige picture & video thread

Not a bad result...

 

[Bibs]

I think the TC in the Macca doesn't like wet surfaces! Cracking start and result by the Exige though

[Neal H]

That McLaren did make an awful launch! Brilliant one by the Exige driver though. 0-62 in 4.01 looks spot on.

New arrival 

[paul lodey]

Certainly brightens up the neighborhood!

[Gordon S]

Lucky boy - looks fantastic!

Don't think that's Nic's car.   Curious about what year the CupR is...noticed that it had a front oil cooler on the left side vs what we have and the radiator cooling fan setup seemed different???

Soon be the first of march

[Davey D]

First wash and clean of the year. Always looks so good afterwards 😍

Lovely car. How are you enjoying it?

That car of yours @Davey D is crying out for a Cup 380 rear spoiler!😎😉

Absolutely loving it 😃 enjoying every moment of ownership,  from driving it,  to just admiring it parked up in the sunshine. Can't wait to get out for some drives with other owners

yeah I really fancy one, but I would also want the cup bootlid as well thought 🤔😅

Did you keep your originals,  or sell them on to recoup some costs?

I'm just sat in the waiting area at lotus Silverstone at the mo,  having is first MOT.

Been getting a price for the carbon rear diffuser surround,  and cup style rear towing loop😎

@Davey D So is Olive Green a metallic or solid colour? I looked at the Olive Green 410 that Sytner had early last year, got offered a reasonable amount to change but went away to check the spec of the car, as they didn’t know anything. And think about the colour as at the time I wasn’t sure, anyway took too long & some one beat me to it.

I may have a carbon rear diffuser surround for sale shortly if you are interested? Would be significantly lower priced than Lotus OEM!

It's a solid colour,  yet still manages to look a different shade of green depending on the lighting. 

When I first went to look at this car I thought it was going to be metallic, so was surprised when u saw it wasn't. It wasn't what I was expecting, but still liked it so made the purchase

I kept the old rear lid and carbon panel and also the rear wing - unlikely but I might want to go back to original at some point.....👍

Agree though - if you go Cup wing you really need the Cup lid😎

Picked up the new car in December, not had too much use yet but hoping to get out and about as lock down eases 🙂 only done 400 miles so far

Also a picture of the interior at the factory before delivery 

[Jcx]

that looks lovely well done.  get some miles on it - even if at lower revs - to learn about its handing characteristics.  they are truly epic when you get it dialled in and you are dialled into it.
