Spotted - Stunning S1 Exige and S1 Elise 170

[riwiho]

Arnage town, Sunday 13th June a couple of hours after the 2010 Le Mans race concluded.

I spotted these two and was blown away by the quality of the vehicles, sorry the pictures are not better. I had enjoyed myself () a little too much during the day and just grabbed a couple of quick shots.

Sorry it is not a more interesting topic, just thought some of you may want to have a look and share in their brilliance.

S1 Exige:







S1 Elise Bell & Corvill 170









.....and just a few yards down the road earlier in the weekend was.........

Did'nt think it was possible to make an S1 Exige look hideous but they've managed it alright

Take away the word 'Exige' from all the decals and I think the black through to silver paint works well.

I actually like the paint on the Exige... nice to see something different I guess. Not really my cup of tea, but it doesn't look too offensive. Perhaps a bit OTT, but I do quite like the union jack on the offside front wing.

I'm guessing it's airbrushed or is the whole car wrapped?

The Elise is Skyman's (from SELOC) old one. It went abroad a couple years back.

What is going on with the alloys on that F40? They look different front to back. Sacrilege to remove the gorgeous OE alloys to start with IMHO.

Thats not a standard F40, its an LM Micholotto car. Note the perspex slider windows and front splitter. Seriously rare and even more hardcore than a standard F40 if thats poss!
I'm just going to take my anorak off!;)

I love the sides but I don't like the stripes. I think that the black to silver is great but the red details make it look a bit fussy for my tastes, hats off for trying something different though. Long live individuality.

I got a video somewhere. It spent the afternoon/evening driving round Arnage town. It did sound extremely fruity so the LM explains alot.

Different wheels is still odd though

They're Enkei alloys on the rear. Seen a few F40's on them, might have been an option.

Fronts look like compomotives, maybe you cant get the Enkei's any more
