DD - you know perfectly well I'm nothing to do with the business you and Stephen are in!

al4x - that's true. I've been up to Strattons quite a few times, partly because I was sorely tempted by a Morgan. They are actually where I got to drive the Exige S (very slowly!) about a year ago so it's worth asking if you can get a test drive next time you're in the area. They also have a lovely collection of Aston's out the back :D

Congrats on the new motor, just be very very careful in the wet! I out-ran one at brands hatch in a BMW Z3 when it was raining, and their rubbish! To be fair though once the track had dried i got destroyed by it :oops:

God that is one good looking car!! You are very lucky. Just be sure you break-in the engine first. The last thing you want is a new motor that burns oil like a motor that has 200,000 miles on it.

It's been tipping with rain all day, and I'm praying that it all dries out overnight as I'm picking the Lotus up tomorrow morning, yay! :D I'm like a child on Christmas Eve at the moment!!

Doh, it rained! Absolutely AWESOME though - definitely would recommend everyone to get an Exige test drive ;) It has a Stage 1 exhaust on the back so isn't the quietest thing on the roads, and when the secondary cam kicks in at 6,000 rpm (so the car continues to pull like mad right up to the red line), the noise is like a jet fighter :D

Because the roads were wet, we took it easy but it's stil fantastic fun. However it really does show up how poor a lot of the UK's roads are (I don't think I have any teeth left). Can't wait to take it out on a dry, sunny day :)
