Nope ... apart from it was sold almost before it was listed.

Its also only doen 2500 miles a year.... I'd buy something that's had a little more use and will possibly have had all the gremlins solved

What do you mean it was sold almost before it was listed?
Wondered whether it was a car just used for trackdays hence the low miles...

As far as I'm aware, the ad was listed today.... and now the car is marked as sold... so that was a bit swift, maybe it had already been sold by the delaler and the ad went up a bit late.

In my opinion, most elises/exiges that get used on trackdays will have racked up decent mileages... to and from trackdays .. on the trackday for example. They are also more likely to get a few useful modifications (read improvements) too.

I imagine this one has been used on the odd summer weekend when its been dry over the last 5 years....

Ah, didn't spot it had been sold! I emailed B&C about it when the ad went up at the weekend and the reply I received on Monday morning said they'd had 8 emails about it already! Damn, missed out.

Very popular colour, low mileage and not enough Exiges available at present. Will have sold easily and probably without a discount!

I have a Black N/A one with the same mileage thats never been tracked. Used at the weekends with a full Lotus service history...............

I'll keep it for a while. Minimal depreciation on Exiges anyway along with low running costs make them a real bargain sports car. Thats assuming that insurance cost is not too high when you younger.

Next year it will be upgraded to the AMV8 Vantage
