I had a 220 Exige S from new in 2007. Did 18,000 miles in 18 months.

Brilliant fun and as said cheap as chips to run, only things mine had other than normal services, tyres and a set of pads. Where rear toe links under warranty and the Alpine head unit cd player packed in. Not bad for 18k hard road and track use.

They are perfect for small twisty tracks and probably the right amount of power for the road. You could actually use the performance.
As Barry said though on the ring you feel like your going backwards sometimes, im sure my clio 200 was quicker

I only sold mine as I wanted something with a 'proper' engine and more grunt hence the move to a CSL.

For the money though, the performance (below 100) is fantastic and for sense of occasion theres not a lot out there to compete.
