(pistonheads link coming soon)

I have owned this car since September 2011, it's been nothing but a joy to own, but now I have the opportunity to own my dream car.....a Lotus Exige.

Since owning the car I have taken every length to look after it, including always keeping the car garaged.

In October 2011, it had a major service (performed by PSR Automotive), which included a cambelt change, new discs and Mintex 1155 pads replaced front and rear, and replaced engine mounts.

In March, I purchased brand new Team Dynamics 1.2 alloys. 16inch front and 17inch rear, which is a popular performance upgrade. I also purchased brand new Yokhama AD08 track tyres, which have only covered 500-600 miles since being fitted.
The original 17inch alloys are in good condition and are included in the sale. They have the recommended Bridgestone tyres fitted. The fronts have a couple of mm left, however the rears are on the markers. WIth new rear tyres, these would make ideal winter wheels if desired.

The gear stick gaiter is not fitted, but one is supplied with the sale (can be seen in the interior photos).

70200 Miles
FSH (had a major service in 10/11)
MOT due 24/10/12
Taxed until 31/12/12
Moonland grey colour
Colour matching hardtop (Red soft top also included in sale)
TMS Stage 2 remap to ~240bhp
VXR sports exhaust
MMG rear diffuser (original undertray supplied if desired)
16/17 Team Dynamics alloys (original 17s supplied also)
Yoko AD08 semi slick tyres
Armourfend protection on front of the car
Custom numberplate included
Alcantara re-trimmed interior.
HPI clear (not Cat C or D)

Looks great mate. Good luck with the sale

[Wolfstone]

That does look good! But it feels a little cheap to me, with the wheels, hardtop, Stage 2, etc etc. What year is it?

[Pazuzu]

Very nice, great colour!

It's 2003.

I thought that was a fair price, and it's what I bought it for back in September.

The reason I haven't lowered the price is due to me spending quite a bit on the big service, and then the new wheels + tyres. But then it got more miles on it that a lot of VXs too, not that that's a bad thing if the car's looked after properly.

Dan, would you be interested in selling the hardtop and possibly the TD wheels separately (I'm interested)? You'd probably get more ££ in total for the little bit of extra faff. Eta, is it an OEM lined roof?

^Thanks for the interest. I won't be splitting anything. With the hardtop and wheels gone, that makes it a much less desirable sale. And I would be putting illegal tyres on the car too, so it wouldn't be sellable in that state.

Oh I forgot to add the location. I'm in Tewkesbury - GL20 6EB

[spuk87]

Fair enough , if you do change your mind I call first refusal!

Haha, I think I know where you are as well, my friend lives up the road from you and I spotted "J4" driving past Morrisons in Sidcup a couple of weeks ago. Have you been past between 9-5 or evenings as I work very close to home. So you either know where I work or know where I live lol!

[J4EY D]

Must be where you work Keep your eyes out for spotted posters under your wiper every weekday for the forseeable future Im just by the oval if you know where that is. If you need any help with anything, or have any questions just let me know

[Wick]

Haha, I will do. And thanks for the offer, I dare-say I'll discover some niggles when the honeymoon period wears thin so I might call on you. Thought as much, I know the Oval well! I actually live up towards QM hospital but park obviously where I've been spotted for work. I'll keep an eye out locally.
