It was an Exige.
Was it? My bad, still an amazing looking car, you rich boys need to buy more of them
Amazing indeed, not sure it justifies the 100k plus price tag though, of course its fine if they hold their value, but you'd be better of buying a Sport 350 or 380 for 90% of the experience at half the cost.

Or an Evora, i like the Evora.
I'll start saving my pocket money up and not spend it on penny sweets for one.

That Exige was *awesome* in the flesh. Bet it absolutely flies!
Circa £110k-ish apparently

Yes it is the press as per usual, the photograph my car and the Lotus and say racing, yet my car and the Lotus were parked on display the entire day.
The racing was by idiots outside refused entry as parking was ticket holders only. So apart from these people causing issues and creating Festival Park all over again it was a fabulous meet and a huge success for Autobrite as they had over 1000 customers through the door on the day, fantastic success story in Stoke.
It is also what happens when you turn of all the nannies, engage LC on cold semi-slick tyres.
The car lit the tyres up on the 1-2 shift, further impacted by the slight curve and undulation in the road, the car quickly spat him out. Very stupid to even consider LC on a cold engine and cold tyres, in such a busy populated area, this could have ended far far worse!
This shows the actual crash:

Gutted for the owner, but a bit more common sense and it would not have happen!
