- This week (after several attempts of trying to get in the thing) I review the Lotus Exile Sport 350! As far as pocket rocket's go, there's no getting better than this!
For a car that weighs just 1125kg! Couple it with a 350bhp Supercharged V6... on paper it sounds outrageous... but is it?
Many thanks to Damien and Lisa for lending us there beautiful Lotus.

Treated myself to a 390 FE it's the best car I've ever owned 😂
Thanks for the review Max, glad you enjoyed the car, keep them coming 👍
Thanks for the car!
I bought one a year ago. Incredible car, so much excitement and drama behind the wheel. It is impossible not to smile when taking the wheel. Too fast for open roads, I can't wait to stretch its legs at my first trackday this year.
We have an exclusive trackday if this interests you?
Thank you for the very enthusiastic video.
Nice comparison with the 981 GT4
Got to love the Sport 350
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great review. If you think the 350’s loud try the 410……
Would love to give that a go
Epic car and great review 👏🏾
Thank you Nosh 👍
Very entertaining Max. Another great video mate.
Thank you James
I am happy to have one - in english racing green - since three years - so long I get in it I will keep the Lotus....
I’ve got the exige s2 with 190bhp, I came from a 400hp car. I’m curious to try one of these, I wonder if that much power is a bit much for b roads? I find the s2 just right. My 400hp car was too much for English roads.
Great video but I was waiting for the conclusion vs the GT4 you mentioned at the start. Which is more of a thrilling drive and which do you prefer, Exige or GT4?
Hi Nathan, apologies I didn’t sign off with a conclusion. Although very similar on paper, they’re both totally different to drive. Lotus is more raw but the gt4 you can sit back on the motorway and be comfortable. More of a thrilling drive, the Lotus
@@DrivenPlus Thanks for the response. I was curious because I’ve had an Exige for 4 years now and keep thinking of a change. I can’t imagine anything comes close for sheer exhilaration so expect I’ll have to compromise a little in that area if I go to a GT4, but with the benefit you refer to, of being a bit more everyday useable. Just don’t want to make the change and regret it the first time I hit a Welsh B-road! Really need to get myself a drive in a GT4…
@@nathanmercer4652 you really won’t regret buying a GT4 mate. Highly recommend 👌
@@nathanmercer4652 I sold my 410 with the intention of getting a GT4. I made a mistake, the Exige just blows it out of the water for engagement and I’ll be after a 350/390 next year.
@@si.fazoul Interesting. Did you end up getting a GT4 or were you just underwhelmed on a test drive? I think the 350’s have more than enough performance for the road so don’t think you’d be disappointed even after a 410 (also plenty of options to increase power if needed)
Love this review.
Thank you! Glad you love it 😎
Very great job man! Have you tried to fix a camera on the pedalbox to film your footwork for this car? It would have been very great to watch your footwork for this kind of cars. ;)
Thank you! I struggle to fix it somewhere but I will give it a go for someday where I can fix it!
@@DrivenPlus Great, thank you guy!
Great review, you’re a natural!
Thank you so much!
When you mentioned it got new engine mount for saving weight from the old models, do you have more info on that?
3:15 Is that a cup in the engine bay?
17” alloy wheels all round?, literally says 18” on the rear tyre in the shot.
350 all you need? just think the spoiler on the 380 and above looks so much better.
The rear lights look better too actually
Awesome car shame I’m too large for it 😂
over 1 to ? quite heavy for a sports car :) more a GT
Too powerful for BRoads.
Agreed. Elise is more suited for B roads

great review. would you buy one for yourself, being the lack of ac. can it be bought with AC. is it worth search for the sport 380 or 390. how much more money for that? thanks alot Mike
Thanks Mike, hard question but all great cars the 350 is still a brilliant choice. But AC is a must for me
