Had the same issue's when adding the footrest in my CR, The car came with the correct "long" mat for the passenger foot well, bu no one could source the short mat. In the end I fitted the footrest and let the mat sit on top, over time its sagged and now looks like an OEM solution lol.

I've owned both a 2013 V6 with NVH but not full carpets and a 2015 V6 CR with no NVH but does have mats. For me there is hardly any difference in terms of road noise. You can hear the engine more in the non NVH car which in fact makes it feel more special.

Just about to put cup 2's on, where's everyone buying them from?

Fantastic, there's some great history to that car. I waited 18 months for delivery. It was the 3rd one ever delivered. It's been ceramic coated from new and treated better than the wife... according to her lol

My old car. You've got a good one there. Would be great to see it again. Funnily enough I live in Derby. Get yourself over to Midlands owners club MLOC we have monthly meets Jeff

CR battery weighs approx 12.9 Kg

Dont think its powerful enough? From doing some research: CR 60ah V6 72ah 350 74ah

Time for a new battery on the CR, current one's no longer holding charge. It appears the one used on the CR is no longer available and its secured differently to a standard V6 one. Clamps over the top rather than at the bottom. Anyone got recommendations on a replacement?

My CR weighed in at 1160Kg fully fuelled. (no NVH, radio etc) I've since added, forged wheels and 2bular exhaust so should be under 1150. Lotus once claimed there could be up to 12kg difference in clams.

380 CUP would look amazing in Signature Orange

Even with the add on titanium silencers I cant meet noise limits at most UK tracks!

Fully agree with what your saying. I'm on my 2nd Exige V6. I was one of the first back in 2013 to take delivery, then changed to another in 2015. I paid just over £50k back in 2013, and similar in 2015, I just cant see how it can justify a near on £40k increase now. Looks like my next move will be away from Lotus, I've paid a deposit on the new TVR that's coming

No, I can swap them in around 10mins with the help of a spring puller

Hi Norbert, I have to use the additional silencers to stand any chance of getting on UK tracks, unfortunately its still too loud for most. Quality wise its great Jeff
