Picked up an Exige V6 today after 6 or more years of lotuslessness
Fun remembering that cats eyes feel like potholes and having to properly grip the wheel on motorways

Loving it so far, hopefully get out for some runs and track-days this year.
Few bits I want to change like the wheels and red bits but this is how I collected it-

S1 Elige Audi 1.8T
S1 Elise Honda K20
VW T6.1 family bus

Nice! The red bits look good, maybe except the fuel filler cap. Not mad on the wheels either but I bet once you're in it you completely forget about all those things!!

Mmmmm, nice wheels!
EDIT: I'd lose the visor strip and filler cap. The rest looks

Congrats Phil, lovely car and good to see you with one again.
I also like the red but it is just a matter of choice.

Cracking motor, enjoy. I don't find the red bits that offensive, maybe just the fuel cap but the rest looks OK to my eye
