Make sure you join the Exige owners club. My mate Simon was over at Anglesey with the club this weekend. He's got a awesome orange Exige S2, as well as a classic Elan.

They are fabulously addictive cars, but not too reliable by the sound of it!

They dont seem to bad reliability wise, from what i have been reading, most of the niggles are electrical like the dash not working.  :rolleye: but they are very simple basic cars so fingers crossed i should be ok. Test drove 2 now and already love them.  :evilgrin:

Cheers guys, the car will be fully back to stock in less than 2 weeks now, very excited about the new car, but have been questioning my decision to change up almost every minute. Tiz truly a wonderful car to look at and drive, but also a big part of that enjoyment is hanging around on here, which i still will so not all bad.  :drinking:

I have made my mind up on the Exige i want, hopefully it will still be there when i am in a position to buy.  :party:

Found this video when researching. Enjoy chaps its only short but very sweet.  :driver:
