richbk Posted February 19, 2010 Posted February 19, 2010 as some continue to fight through the snow and drips, and others go on line to get the car tax, or down to the local mot centre to prepare for spring. martin is slowly defrosting his fingers and leigh considers the potential upgrades for one, other or both of this loti. some are keeping an eye on cayman S 's on pistonheads!! what are your plans for lotus ownership for 2010 richbk
andywolf Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 Loving mine as is currently is and hoping to keep all as standard at the moment!
lummo Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 Keeping mine as it is, for now. I am starting to save up for a full suspension & brake refresh though, which will undoubtedly be needed before too long..
MrSimba Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 I'm having the two spoiler struts and front splitter painted satin black next week, then just the TRD airbox and I'll be happy!
Midtec Posted February 23, 2010 Posted February 23, 2010 Would like some new shocks/springs all round (next MOT may force the issue ) but other than that will be keeping everything standard for now. Would love a Honda upgrade but would have to get a devorce first
JonS Posted February 23, 2010 Posted February 23, 2010 I'm gonna drive it... drive it a lot... mostly on the friggin motorway!! But hopefully a couple of track days as well, and a long weekend trip to the highlands is already well into the planning stages! As for mods - if I sell the Kiddy house... maybe (but unlikely!) Selling - I sincerely hope not!! We've done so much together, I'd hope to keep it for ever! lol

Would love a Honda upgrade but would have to get a devorce first rear shocks are only a few thousand miles old...you must be pushing on on those track days nitrons might be good, although if you lower the front end, you might be able to rent the car to he council as a snow plow with that splitter have fun richbk
ConMcL Posted February 23, 2010 Posted February 23, 2010 Few more mods to do for me this year. 1 paint and fit the motorsport engine cover I've got 2 replace the 295mm ap disc with some 304mm aps as they need replacing 3 fit the carbon interior bling I've bought and I must resist the urge to charge cool it
TheRon Posted February 24, 2010 Posted February 24, 2010 Just working out sprinting plans for this year - joined Midland Speed again and sent off entries to 3/4 sprints and hillclimbs so far. Going to concentrate on the local events (Curborough, Shelsley, MIRA, Prescott) and then maybe a weekend trackday/sprint trip to Anglesey in June. Not planning any changes to the car for this year. Con - I can't really see the point of a SC Honda Exige that isn't charge cooled...it's like having an amplifier that goes all the way to 11 but only ever turning it to 10 :-)

Martin R Posted February 24, 2010 Posted February 24, 2010 A few trackdays and some much needed driver training if i can stretch to it. My 190 BHP is more than i can drive to anywhere near its potential. I expect i will do a bit of fiddling but i am going to keep it as OE as possible. The noise it makes still brings a massive smile

I think your point is well made and wholey accurate
G Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 just bought the new car a couple of months ago so keeping it for a while now. mods already,fitted a 2bular exhaust and i have a trd airbox to fit when i get a free weekend. car doesnt want for anything else except, Cf rear wing, front splitter, sidepods, boot lid lol. i am thinking about having some stripes fitted. we will be getting out in the car a lot when the weather warms up, and looking forward to arranging more meets this year, already signed up for the serpentine run. also planning to get a few trackdays this year, Laura is desperate to have a go at rockingham and i want to drive local tracks mallory and donny again (fingers crossed its finished) hoping to get across to europe on a champagne run and squeeze in a trackday at le mans.
