I actually quite like that (other than the pointy bonnet vents)

If it was painted Pink and Yellow it would look a little like Penelope Pitstops car.

Maybe that's why Dick Dastardly's stood next to it?

Or maybe he's passing it to you...... to you, to me, to you!
Really?

eh?

Has someone put an Elise front end on one? Looks NA side vents I must admit.
In fact....NAH....look at the rear end. It's too rounded which means either some plonker put all the body panels off an elise on or......it's an Elise!

I'm sure it would have been cheaper to buy an Exige than to do this to a Speedster Turbo.

Nicely done but why?

[ad551]

I found it on this page http://www.lotuscars...6/rbf/manus.php

It just seems a bit of an odd decision to me, but I suppose if both clams were needed there is nothing stopping you doing it, apart from the small matter of taste

When new clams are £2K each . . .

Does look good, but if I wanted an Exige I'd probably buy an Exige. Obviously there were different circumstances here though...

Better than some of the other monstrosities on that website though

its got like 350+bhp i think?

An the 2nd hand Exige GT-3 motorsport Clams were?

Then you have to chage the front crash box too as it's different on the S2 and the side sills and doors too.

New light clusters front and back and probably a new rear exhaust as the tail pipes would be in the wrong place.

Can't be cheap, maybe more affordable as he already had to buy new clams but not a cheap conversion.

Found some more info: http://www.vx220.org...Vxt-t62977.html

411 BHP! I suppose it's good to have the performance to back up the looks. Not my cup of tea but I can see why it appeals. Surely easier to but a VX engine in an Exige though?

my 220 needs some work done to it as the body work has had some bad repairs so figgered may as well go all out

[Yellow_or_black?]

'All out'? And it's 'figured'. Unless you meant 'fuggered'... Right. If we all contribute £5, we should be able to buy this VX and save it from a life of chavvy despair. Send contributions to...
