I swapped my Elise for an Exige Sprint earlier this year. Very pleased with it, they are fantastic cars. I'm always interested when I see one on the various forums and keen to talk to owners but I have never seen one on the road.
Hopefully some at LITP this weekend.

Is there a Sprint Register anywhere? As there are not that many around it would be quite nice to know how many remain and where about's they are.

The Bumpf said 40 cars, year dated excluding 1982.
So far I have been informed 1982 does exist and there were a number of cars made for Europe and Japan over and above the 40.

Would be great to hear from any owners.

Thanks

Rick

Saw 1982 yesterday and had a chat with owner. He was very pleased with the car. Looks well. Upgraded Intercooler I think?

If you go up to see it can you check what anniversary year is on the build plate?

Did view it previously but forgot to take note of it.

Standard car if I recall correctly. Price now is more realistic than the 28K they originally had it listed for.

Unfortunately had a change of PC since I started the register.
I may have left some information on SELOC. Have a browse there and you may find some info.
