I was number 75 silver S2.

Next time

Laser blue S1 Exige was me

Looks really similar to my old 111R. Great choice and welcome to NYLOC

Must have been two of them then. I'll get a photo up later.

Bare aluminium with green and yellow stripes?

I spotted it from the other end of the car park and literally skipped over - I couldn't believe what I was seeing! That is Gordon Murray's personal car. Same size as an Exige but with three seats, plenty of luggage space and a 621bhp V12. Amazing!

Mate, that is the very tip of the iceberg. If I'd stopped to photograph every Ferrari and Aston Martin I'd never have made it to the circuit! You can actually access the pre-73 car park and various amenities without paying entry. If I wasn't so hooked on the racing, I'd be sorely tempted. It'd be a ...

The Revival car parks were over-flowing with rare and evocative metal. These were the best I stumbled upon. Oh - and as you'll read on the link below, a McLaren F1 makes an Exige look unbelievably crude by comparison.

Every day as I'm heading from Wakey to Beverley I see a red S2 Elise. Anyone on here?

I think i'll want the 190.

I understand in 2006 various revisions were made. Do you know what these were? Do they make much of a difference to the car?

Various things - I'm sure somebody more knowledgeable than me will be able to help.

Fly-by-wire throttle.
Revised brake set-up.
Probax seats ...

I was staggered to get £380 for my S1 seats earlier in the year. Kind of off-set the £800 I'd just dropped on a set of Kevlar Corbeau LE-Pros

Apparently this year nobody crashed a Mustang but a group of lads were standing around a Corsa getting high and pumping out bangin' tunes. Not my cup of tea at all - especially given all the awesome motor racing on over the Easter weekend.

Not much on there but some ephemera and parts I've removed from the Exige. I'm clearing the decks before we move. If anything doesn't sell then it'll be binned or charity ...

Picking between NYLOC members is like choosing a favourite child. I will be envious when you have a correctly fitting engine cover, though, Steve!

Si - looks like you've ended up with an engine cover anyway, mate. I reckon your car will be built before mine's back on the road at this rate
