Cheap Exige S up for grabs...

And where it says 'Damage - front end', it's clearly not!
Front end, back end, side end and interior end!
And the lucky buyer may even be getting some of my claret....

I know I was!
Cat B is only to be broken.
I couldn't see any way that it'd be cost effective to put it back together.(obviously my insurers felt the same!)
It needs a complete chassis which can only be bought from Lotus costing Łkkk's.
Even then the replacement VIN starts with 'RC' which indicates it has a replacement chassis so further weakens its value.
Plus the only undamaged body is the passenger door, engine lid, wing mirror and possibly the rear spoiler is cosmetic damage only.
BUT - the engine/box are sublime and have only done 3k miles so would be good in a Caterfield or something.
The seats, if not damaged by whoever chucked the suspension and half the front wheel on them, are also worth a bob or two as are the remaining 3 wheels.
