I’ve owned the Exige since 2022, and it’s been a brilliant motor vehicle. The car was purchased from a close friend, who had bought it from Jon Seal; before that, it belonged to another friend’s father. I always buy cars with good service history, which has continued throughout my ownership. Serviced with Millers Racing engine oil & brake fluid, and MT-90 annually. The Exige comes with its original wallet, a thick file of invoices, 2 keys, and 2 service books full of stamps.

Other than regular servicing the Exige has had the following works done in my ownership:

The current MOT runs to 20^th April 2026.

The history file (both physical & digital) contains many service, maintenance and upgrade invoices totalling nearly £15,000 in my ownership and many more £1000’s prior. There are no warning lights on start-up and cosmetically the cars bodywork condition is in line with the cars age and mileage. The Exige has always been garaged and has never been used in road salt in my ownership – only being taxed April-October. Northern based Lotus specialists Seriously Lotus & Performance Autocare know the car well and have carried out most of the listed works.

Like the bodywork, the interior condition is in good order for the cars age and mileage. All interior elements have been coated with Gtechniq L1 leather guard, with all exterior glass coated with Gtechniq G1 ClearVision.

This Exige was always meant to be a keeper, but with a baby on the way, a fleet shuffle around means I need to thin out the toy collection. I know I’ll regret selling this car. It took me a long time to find this example, and it’s been pampered in my ownership.

The car is available to view in Swinefleet, East Yorkshire (DN14). I do have a covered trailer and would be happy to deliver the car at additional cost. Vehicle is now back on its original plate AU06 CSZ. For any questions you can call/message me on 07368 192143.
