Secondly, CONGRATS!!!!! that is one gorgeous Car and it looks amazing in the dark and snow - respect for getting a resi permit and driving it home in this weather! we should lunch darling ? Some photos (excuse the quality, I am not a photographer)...

Wow - that's really quick. Great over delivery - well done Lotus! Congrats Mark! The colour looks amazing ? Do the run in on the Corsica trip ? Look forward to seeing it in the flesh and getting a pax ride ?

Not wishing to fuel the debate but Pits you need to add in the gearbox into your assessment above, I think that's a fairly significant element. i also wonder about the comparative 'engineering & design' quality and robustness of the two

089 - is Mark Allin's, I was just a custodian...

To add more emotional grief - go custom paint! ?

Congrats Anthony & Mark - awesome! Great to know have we have at least 2 of the 6 here. now talking specs only three things matter: 1) colour - I look forward to the angst, the changing of minds, the emotional pulls and then the final decision ? 2) harness (six point) and bar - it HAS to have these.... 3) aircon - cos we have all gone soft, but it helps on the drives to Spa and Ring! very exciting guys ?

Hi - so here are our details: march 2014 build 51 pewter grey
-
Yes and yes - I will need to get back to you on those; Orange in storage and grey back at hanger111... ?
-
Yes, next time and also I should be in the Exige. I will post up when I am at Spa next - probably April.
-
Yes, I was at Spa on fri - what a shame we didn't know we were there. I was in the silver Gt4, with my friend who was in his blue Gt4. It was a great day.

Motorsport 70l fuel cell or Pro Alloy 60l tank?
farook replied to CaptainSlow's topic in V6 Exige Projects & Upgrades
So, I used to get ~150-175 miles from the standard tank in my v6 cup. I am impressed people are getting ~200ish. I have never got anywhere near there... ? I used to have a 60l tank in the v6 cup and my range increased to 220-240miles. I had 'sold' the car and the guy wanted it returned to stock so I had it removed - but then he couldn't complete... long story... Any how, that led me to consider and go ahead with the 460 upgrade and got hanger111 to fit the larger 60l tank - with two tanks fulls I am managing 180-200 miles. in terms of how the gauge works - it's just normal, except yo -
Thanks MarytnB - it makes sense. But I think it was Freejack that was asking the question...

Drew do it before the summer so you have the full season to use/enjoy... see you soon, best, f

Thanks, fortis, Arun & redviper - not one to generally go la la over something but this is very good....! Fortis - Not me I am afraid not been to Anglesey yet, but I do know the group that went with the sector 7 jag.

Hope you don't mind Norbert - add comments on your thread as this is after thread... Day 2 - dry roads, dpm set to Race and full throttle application - WOW! This is just so bloody amazing and addictive - I am so loving this upgrade and falling in love with my car even more.... Can't wait for a hooning trip and or track day - hopefully both soon. Guys those of you who are undecided - don't wait do it, you will have no regret and you will be totally thrilled. This what the Exige cup should have been all about.
-
Thanks Norbert!! Yeap me too with track testing else just honing on roads... yes in the front - I didn't realise this was different to KT... Do you know why the difference and benefits...? I will ask Greg.
-
I have only covered a couple of hours and a 100mile but as Norbert said on his thread it's like a new car! It's bloody amazing - the torque is brilliant and the power is reliant less easily passes 160leptons - 991gt3s watch out we are coming a chasin... my phase 1 was only the power upgrade but it is so worthwhile.... It's how the car should have been and if not, that's what they should offer have offered... Phase 2 for me is suspension, brakes, exhaust, lsd, clutch, gears... Probably over the darkest winter?

My car lives!!!! i am very pleased to report that I picked up my car this morning and all the issues have been resolved. To say I am very pleased would be an understatement but I would equally say that Greg at hanger111 is also very pleased. We were all in a tight corner and the car would not yield... Thru preservance Greg has managed to find the needle in the haystack that was causing the problems. Quick recap - issue was two fold a misfire on cold start pointing to an air leak and during road testing some slight hesitations. They chased, replaced, reviewed and resolved: -
