May 2006 "Track and Race Cars" magazine (no I dont subscribe, at least not until my subs for Guns & Ammo runs out).

Its natchly a tack biased review, but surprisingly the summary is that the Exige S with the Super sport pack is better all-round track and road car then the 240R. Its their assertion not mine.

"to come so close to the almost race ready 240R and deliver a daily driver with the same ability on track is a real improvement from Lotus."

Just saw this laserblue? Exige S in classifieds...it looks better then I thougt with those colorcoded bits...very very nice
but those silver Alloy Wheels (as 240 Cup) does not look bad, but a bit to friendly?

That's probably their demo car. Apparently, for reasons known only to themselves, Lotus made all the dealer demo cars that colour.

It actually looks very nice in the plastic. With Black wheels it's a very good package. Having seen Joe's in grey though I think that's a better look I'd go black with Silver wheels were it me I think, and have some colour coordination going on inside.

Just picked mine up, Black with silver wheels, and I'm really pleased with the look. I'll get some pics on as soon as I can work out how. Still running her in but what a bloody fabulous machine.

Joe, I'd love to see some pics of yours if you have any.

Thanks Rene. I'm not very technical so it may take some time to get pictures on here. Plus I've been pretty much living in the car since last Friday. I just don't want to get out of it.
