2014 Lotus Exige S

The Lotus Exige S has always been one of our favorites. It adheres to a classic recipe that hasn’t changed in decades of light weight, scalpel sharp handling, buckets of power and aggressive styling with every inch engineered purely to excite.

In 2014 Lotus launched its fastest Targa-top ever, the supercharged 258kW Exige S Roadster.

Propelled by an unburstable Toyota-sourced 3.5 litre V6, enhanced by an Australian-supplied Harrop supercharger with power directed straight to the rear wheels via a perfectly mechanical feeling six-speed manual gearbox, the mid-mounted Exige S pulverizes the 0-100 km/h stat in just 3.8 seconds.

10kg lighter than its coupé sibling due to the removal of the large rear wing, front chin spoiler and roof the Exige S Roadster comes as standard with AP racing calipers, ABS, a three-mode stability control system, air conditioning and four speaker audio system with USB port, CD player and electric windows.

Australian delivered and ordered in the stunning combination of Starlight Black Metallic over quilted Cognac leather Sports seats this fastidiously maintained Lotus Exige S has travelled just 8,400 kilometres.

Optioned with Premium Pack interior that includes quilted leather seats, leather steering wheel, leather trimmed air-vents, centre console, quilted leather door cards and door sills plus Metallic finish shift gate, plush pile carpets, Silver finish offset 17” front and 18” rear wheels and LED headlamps and tail lights this slice of Britannia cool carries a classically menacing road-presence.

A credit to its last owner and an asset to the next, offered with a full suite of log books, service history, tools and manuals and maintained in simply outstanding condition this plug and play sportscar is bang-for-buck a very savvy choice.

A distinct point of difference and giant killer on both the road and/or track from prancing horses and rear engined taxi’s, driving this no fuss sportster is an event each and every time you step behind the wheel.
