This little bugger was challenge to find in Orange but perseverance and timing equals success. This is the 6th Lotus added to the modern era of my Lotus collection, the Europa is the next to find. Nothing really special to note about the model, execution is good and serves the 1:1 well. Enjoy the pics!

Sweet ad, I've always been a fan ox the Exige, they're quite pricey here though, aboout £90 or so, which is why I don't have one yet. I think they should have done Krypton Green too, that colour is bonkers!

God you guys pay ridiculous money for die cast. What is the average UK yearly salary? Agreed on the Green, that would be killer!

I've always loved the Exige. The car is really small just like the 1:1 and it's dwarfed by other cars in my collection. But the fact that it can still put up a fight against bigger cars with twice the power like m3 or c63 amg makes me adore this car.

Sadly I've decided to let mine go to make room for newer additions. If anyone is interested in a black one, look for my ad in the adverisememt section.

I can't seem to find your ad. How much were you thinking of selling your black one for including shipping within the US?

Nice add...this one has been on my list forever, but I've never found any great deals.

Orange for me, too...it just suits the Exige perfectly.
I kept putting it off, putting until I got the right deal. The Orange isn`t as plentiful as it once was. Pull the trigger sooner than later!

congrats on the new add. I really like the exige. i saw one at a lamborghini/aston martin dealership on saturday, and It is definitely striking. I made add one in the future, probably in black.

I agree wholeheartedly - because my supercharged Exige Cup was Krypton Green. In contrast, the orange ones look muddy-coloured in dull weather - whereas the KG ones seem to make their own sunshine





In the absence of KG, I went for the silver 1:18 Autoart


Before that I got the Ixo 1:43 Exige in silver... and lefthand drive (correct for me!)




It's not bad for a small model, so I was considering trying to re-paint it, but then I found it in Krypton Green and lefthand drive
, so had to have that too


I so wish that the 1:18 was available in KG. If they never do it, I may have to re-paint my silver one - and convert it to Cup spec with the cage and other safety equipment and to lhd...

speedy - nice car, must be pretty rare where you are ? the supercharged cars are quite rare here, even though I have a Lotus dealer relavitely close by, most of the stock they carry are the n/a ones. I'd love a shot in a supercharged one.
