Hi Guys... New'ish here

[JcxMIG]

Hi Guys,

I've just joined the forum so thought I should say "Hi!".

I am Joe, I have an Exige 410 Sport in Military Grey.  It is my second Exige - the first being a black 350 Sport.  I am 100% smitten with my 410 and hope to keep it for many years to come. 

I live in Northants on the Cambs/Rutland border and i am a life-long petrol head.

I have a regular column in Absolute Lotus Magazine and i am a photo hawk on Instagram @jcxmig  posting tons of pics of MIG 191 my beautiful 410.  I also feature on the #MyLotus page richly filled with Lotus owner stories.

I recently attended the C&M meet organised by Lotus Cars and was pleased to meet a bunch of guys who I had gotten to know a bit via Instagram and i guess some may well be on here too.

I look forward to meeting more of you in due course.

Cheers!

Joe

Hi Joe, welcome to MLOC. As soon as I saw the photo of your Exige I thought I've seen that car somewhere before and after reading on realised it was in Absolute Lotus.

The Exige looks stunning in military grey and obviously worthy of a second glance from the feline fraternity by the looks of it 😄

[JcxMIG]

Cheers Phil!  I look forward to joining you on some drives out.  Glad you also read AL  It has some cracking content.

Welcome mate, I have seen your car on tour on Instagram. Love car and you sure know how to take a picture. Be great to see you and your car at a meet one day. 👍🏼

Thx @Neilshannon27 I share 1 in 20 or 30 pics taken.  I find if it take enough pics i manage to capture a few worth sharing.

Fantastic car in a amazing colour welcome to MLOC 👍

Great wheels Joe,  looking forward to seeing it in the flesh.  If the cat in the picture is anything like mine, it’ll wait for the car to be spotless before walking over every panel with dirty paws.  I honestly believe she aims to get every panel with the least steps.  I actually found her sleeping in the passenger seat at the weekend, post wash.  By the look in her eye and the speed of her movement, she know what was coming her way.  Didn’t stop her curling up there 10 minutes later.😠

I spotted you 11 March .  See post in “spotted”

[JcxMIG]

Thanks for the nod. 👍 hope I waved if you were in your lotus.

my cat has been in the elise when the roof was off in the garage, and when I saw him there he jumped up and scrambled up the seat back and out, pulling threads in the upholstery on the way! Little b@st@rd!!
