Fitted the soft top last night, I think the new Exige suits a soft top so much better than the last model.

Bloody right, especially as I did not realise that it had an instant conversion. Best of both worlds now Graham.

So what is the difference between the coupe and the convertible, different type of softtop?

Sounds to me then that the best bet is the coupe which has the splitter and wing, fitted with a soft top.

Is it standard or an aftermarket conversion?

OK, won't say that I am jealous, but closer now that the roof can come off.

I could actually buy one now that the kids do not need the the investments that we had put by, but it is a few years late now to do it justice, needs the overseas track days and a tut that could keep up with the last ones out of the bar.
