Exige owner looking for buying advice
Discussion
Hi Guys,
I currently have an Exige Cup 240 which I love but having had it two years I am thinking of a change. I have always wanted to own an M3 but given what I am used to driving I fancy the more focused approach of a CSL. Have any of you guys ever owned an Exige and does a CSL relly feel "special" when you jump in, turn the key and pull away. Any input greatly appreciated.
Oh and another thing, if any ownwers are in central Scotland I would love to come and have a look at your CSL and a wee passenger trip in exchange for the same in the Cup 240.
Cheers
Stuart

CSL is a very special car.
Personally speaking every time I get in it, it gives me a feeling that some special is going on. Driving it feels far more of an occasion than in any other car.
Not sure how it would compare with the hard core experience of an Exige Cup, but it's certainly in the same ball park. From the drivers seat you can appreciate that you somewhere special, somewhere that any driver worth their salt deserves to be.
Plus that and you can chuck 2 kids and your weekly gorceries in the back!!
I'm a bit further north than the central belt, but would happily show off my CSL to a fellow PH'r.

Stuart,
Had an Elise 2 but not an exige. However I do have a Noble M12 which I sometimes compare to the CSL. The CSL is completely different from the stock M3 (well the convertible anyway, as we have one of those as well). I don't think anyone who try's out a CSL turns it down. Its that good. Suggest you try the M3 and CSL and you'll notice the difference.

Hi Stuart, i come from an exige background and now drive a CSL. (i had a series 1)
The CSL does feel special every time you take it for a spin and the grin factor is huge each and every time you drive it. I would also say that for a much bigger car the CSL still has the same composed go-kart handling feel of the exige. It was that similarity that drove me to purchase my CSL!
