About this Collectable

"Simplify, then add lightness". Not our words, but those originating from a certain Colin Chapman. With his sports car brand Lotus he built icons such as the Seven and the Elan and, possibly the most famous model, the Elise. The British know best how to build a purist driver's car. An Elise is already special, but it's hardcore sister, the Exige, is really a all-out sports car. Lotus gave the S2 for a tiny bit more usability, because the Exige S1 was a bit too extreme for some.

This is the Exige (S2) S, which means: they added a supercharger. This example has been consequently given an update by renowned Lotus tuner Komo-Tec. On the dyno, this Lotus therefore delivers no less than 270 hp, a healthy 50 hp more than a standard Exige S. And that at a weight of only 910 kg.

This Exige is an original left-hand drive car. The exterior is in Alpen White with 44,500 km on the clock. Originally delivered in Belgium and fitted with a KT280 kit by the second (Belgian) owner at Komo-Tec. The current owner imported the Lotus to the Netherlands two years ago. In addition, this Exige comes with an optional soft top, so on sunny days the hard roof can be removed or replaced with an easy-to-open version (and turns your Exige into a hardcore Elise).

Less than 2,000 kilometers ago, this Exige was serviced by Van der Kooi in Houten. All booklets are included with the car and the invoices of the maintenance history are also largely present.
