From memory, at the motorshow last year the had a chrome orange exige which also had one white & one yellow stripe on the Lotus Cars stand. Probably worth a call to your friendly local Lotus dealer!

Do you mean this one:

The Red one in Footballers wives is a factory car IIRC. They had problems shifting it as it does not have air con.

Looks nice though

Thanks just what I've been looking for. Do you know if the stripes were done by dealer or specialist company?

So I understand, having been informed last night, this is an Exige Cup car, which is a limited run car with roll cage, dry sumped Toyota engine and other race spec goodies. Apparently it is a special to represent the Euro series.

All for £44,000 of your best english pounds!

I do of course, stand to be corrected?

Have a look at SELOC, there are a number of suppliers who can provide the vinyl (all colours) and the fitting service.

A number of threads recently about a viper stripes and colour combo's

JCT600 had one of these for a while but apparently the stripes were done by an outside firm. Did a good job though.

Not sure if that one is a Cup model but there are a few around. There has been a Chrome Orange one in the classifieds on here for ages. Started at £44k but has come down a fair bit.

If you want vinyl stripes made up get over to the SELOC forums and u2u rick111s or post in the Kent forum.

Rick works for vinyl creations and I'm sure will be able to give you some assistance or direction. He also has one of THE nicest S1's I've ever seen (total Alcantara GJOB, Gullwing roof, Honda conversion etc).
