Popular Post GFWilliams Posted October 25, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 Hello chaps, Bought this Exige V6 from Jamie today, absolutely love it so far! I'm sure there will be many many photos of it out and about as I'm a photographer and will be daily driving it for a while... In fact I'll get more photos up later today I reckon!

Kalli Posted October 25, 2016 Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 Welcome George Get yourself on the phone to Jim V pronto! Suggest you mention mine as a bench mark for sound as I know he does a number of different tailpipe sizes, etc. Also have a chat to Jez at Back On Track to get it fitted! He did an excellent job with mine. I think you, James, Mark and I need to meet up. Mainly because my PC background needs a refresh, and I feel like i'm cheating using someone elses Exige...

Been a fan of your photos for a while from my PH days, so it's great to have you here. My Cup isn't that camera shy so possibly an opportunity for the future.

Xisthos Posted October 25, 2016 Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 Congratulations! I'm sure you feel awesome for having such a great car at your disposal anytime. I should say that your car is lucky as well for having your talent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFWilliams Posted October 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 (edited) Thanks for the warm welcome, interesting to drive it back to back with my (150hp) Caterham this evening. Exige is certainly quicker, Caterham is more fun. Edited October 25, 2016 by GFWilliams 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pits Posted October 25, 2016 Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 Gorgeous car George, great choice. Good to have you on board. You've already had a shot of an Exige win Pic of The Month, I have a feeling that it won't be long before we see a liquid yellow one win it! Enjoy!

Popular Post GFWilliams Posted October 26, 2016 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted October 26, 2016 I'm looking forward to getting some proper photos of the car, my plans for yesterday didn't quite work when I got asked to leave from the location I intended to shoot it! My big debate now is whether I take the Caterham or Exige to Brands Hatch on the 7th Nov. I think due to cost of consumables and insurance it might be favouring the Caterham, but I really want to try the Exige! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xisthos Posted October 26, 2016 Report Share Posted October 26, 2016 Eh, just noticed that your car has it's hard top off in the garage shot. I thought it required the dealer to remove it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFWilliams Posted October 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2016 It has the soft top conversion, just a few bolts get it off then I can have twice the fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xisthos Posted October 26, 2016 Report Share Posted October 26, 2016 Interesting! If there are no vibration or water breach issues then I'll probably do the same to my car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFWilliams Posted October 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2016 Speak to your dealer, you have to buy a soft top and the mountings really, although you could just remove the hard top and hope it doesn't rain! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xisthos Posted October 26, 2016 Report Share Posted October 26, 2016 Sorry to derail the topic. I am aware of the soft top kit that you can buy. So if they remove the hard top, you can't easily put back the hard top again? That's what I was referring to, apologies for the confusion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalli Posted October 26, 2016 Report Share Posted October 26, 2016 The Exige roof is exactly the same as the previous generation S2 roof. That part of the car hasn't changed. The hardtop on the coupe's are only mounted with anti-tamper bolts. With the correct bit (or through the dealer) you can remove these. Once done, the roof unclips and comes out. To attach, it's exactly the same (albeit use different bolts for ease). The car will suffer from leaks, but generally only if you drive with the soft top off during rain. Otherwise, no leaks, nor window alignment requirements. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
