At that price ('or make me an offer') (!) that won't last long...

Is it me or is that cheap?

Be an interesting car to own though.

thats AlunR's car ...been up for sale for a few weeks, with a load of timewasters that recon the mileage is too high so hes lowered the price a little...its a sorted, mint condition, straight car

if i had the money i;d buy it. mileage isnt everything. thats not even slightly high anyway!

I so wish I had the spare cash to buy that car - if we hadn't just moved to a house earmarked for a big extension I'd be putting my money in Alun's hand.

When I went to detail it he offered me the keys for a drive, but I had to decline because I know I'd have been smitten. Its simply stunning, and having heritage too (believed to be the very first S2 Exige, as well as a famous TV car) I think it makes it that little more special.

I have made a tentative enquiry re part exchanging my Elise 111S, not sure if that would interest him though.
I wish i had waited a few weeks as i have seen a few Exiges of a very similar age and price to the Elise that i bought.

I've been sitting here doing the sums but i just can't afford it a the moment. If I had the money it would be certainly one I would be looking at.

I have passengered in AlunR's car and it is a very nice car and the mileage wound't worry me. My Exige is now on over 30,000 miles and still feels like brand new.

I have purposely not mentioned which car i am interested in, there are some very good detectives on here.

The mileage doesnt really worry me to be honest. The biggest concern i have is going from an Elise to an Exige after only owning an Elise for 2 months. I am not the most confident driver and dont want to kill myself in it. Hopefully i will be having some training in the future (waiting for birthday present hints).

I had a good chat with him today and hopefuly we can come to an agreement.

Lovely car. Can honestly say I wouldn't replace my 160 with it though, maybe that's just me. The grass isn't always greener. Would rather spend the spare cash making my car quicker and more individual...
