Noticed that a couple of days ago.... was always going to happen though, the performance of the N/A Exige over the 111R was never enough to justify the price difference IMHO, The S is in greater demand now.

Not sure if that's confirmation enough simply because it's missing from the price list?

Does he know if all the 08 cars are going to have the airbags as standard, or will the exige still be available without?

With the changes to the MY08, if anything, I'd expect a large price increase... wink I certainly would value a MY07 more knowing what I'll be getting with the newer models...

1. All the cars wil have the airbag in 2008 but don't know which interior.
2. Car in Belgium are mainly on order. So prices for 2007 exiges will remains the same (discount on car varies between 0 and 1250 - 2000 euros). The question is more if the demand will increase.

Does that mean Lotus may introduce a 240bhp 'R' to make the models consistant across the range?

Looks like I'll be looking for a used 07 when I come to buying then, shame! Unless they do something to improve the interior they do for the Super Tourer package currently...
