If i was getting a standard Exige I'd choose Military Grey after having seen loads of different colours at the factory.

It's really stunning in the flesh, and a more unusual take on the metallic grey theme but you have to see it in real life to appreciate it. I wouldn't have even considered it until I saw it.



hi pits, is the military grey still at the factory? i originally specced this colour but there was no way to see an example!

I doubt it, those pictures were taken back in February.

It would be what I'd choose for a standard Exige V6.

Sorry this is a quick thread hijack and call out to the 'The Pits'!

If you get chance could you PM me as I'm the owner of your old Tuscan S - I'd be keen to catch up on the early history of the car if possible. The car is perfect by the way and in very good hands :-)

Cheers,

Simon

Managed 239 miles round the west of Scotland stopping at Loch Fyne Oyster bar for lunch - the car drives very well - you don't realise just how quickly you are cornering until you catch up with somebody else, which happened a lot. Only another 760 miles and I can start to really explore the cars capabilities.....

Was that your green Exige sitting outside? If it was, it looked absolutely outstanding!

I was the guy picking up my Orange Evora..

Yep - As ever with an unseen paint choice, I was a little unsure what to expect - I guess 'expectations exceeded' covers it.

Your Evora certainly has some presence!
