Hi there
I've just ordered my Exige S in Graphite Grey and I know that this colour has been slightly changed by Lotus. Does anyone have a picture of their car in the latest Graphite Grey colour ?
I'm sure its the dogs &^%^** but I'd love to know if anyone already has this colour

Cheers

Try Here and an action phot below taken on the A377 earlier this year

The colour is indeed the dogs danglies, as is the noise from the supercharger on boost, I'm pretty sure that you won't regret it, and that Joe Exige S won't mind me posting pics of his P&J.

Westover Sports Cars (Poole) pre-ordered another Exige S in Graphite on the back of seeing mine. It's sitting in the showroom and is still available as far as I know.

not sure about the recent changes to Graphite Grey, but I have a MY54 Exige in that colour and still really like it.

The "S" needs to be the right colour because of the colour codeding. Dark colours look good imho. Graphite....good choice

Nice shots Joe. Do you have a special 'GLOSS' function on your camera? No matter how much I scrub my car it doesn't photograph as well as that.

Thank you!
Just a normal Sony digital camera.

I've invested in the full Zymol treatment (Circa £300 from Parc Ferme). I cannot recomend this stuff enough!

All you have to do to maintain it is wash the car with Zymol bathe instead of normal shampoo, chamois it down and then go over it with the spray on field glaze. The car is then absolutely gleaming again. The whole cleaning process takes 1 to 1.5hrs.

Zymol requires a top up every 6-12 months at a cost of £90
