The LOTUS EXIGE (2004-09) 2DR ROADSTER 1.8 189 SUPER SPORT is a rare, compact two-seat sports car, rather than a practical hatchback or family car. Its low, purposeful shape and open-air character put it in a specialist corner of the UK used-car market, appealing to drivers who value excitement over space and convenience. mycarcheck.com has recorded nine look-ups covering four distinct VINs, so these figures are a small snapshot, not a definitive guide to every car. Within that sample, average recorded mileage is 40,000, with about 1,000 miles added yearly; the average is 6.7 previous keepers. The average private-sale valuation shown is £7,600, best treated as a data point rather than a guaranteed asking price. Compared with roadsters such as Mazda MX-5, the Exige is focused and less versatile: suited to weekend drives and enthusiasts, not family duties. Expect thrilling handling, modest comfort and little luggage space on longer journeys.
