My unmolested Sprint Blue has less than 75K & is not far off as 'mint' as a 15 year old car can be. 'eliteists'..? - I wouldn't even straight-swap my coupe for a higher mileage Plus/LE

Just remind me? How many 'exclusive' LEs, against, say, 16NAs?

I like the external look of both, I like the Recaro seats, six speed, push button start..... But most of all I like the rarity of them both. They are both 'Limited editions' and both 'top of the range'....... and I like my 180mph clocks, wheels and rare Energy metallic Green colour ( the only one at AutoItalia 2012)
Its a good thing we all have different tastes in the look of the Coupe, makes the meets so much better than looking at a row of exactly the same cars!!!!

I think I've been vague, I meant from perspective of owners of LE/Plus's, do either wish they'd went for the alternative model?

JLow75 I was only being sarcastic when I said elitist, as I know the poverty spec owners get touchy at the inference of the LE/Plus's being superior*



* which of course us owners know they are

Could that be because they've been scrapped?

Put a 6 speed on it, and you have the car I want

You wait till I've fitted the Zender kit it, clay barred it & put the pictures up on here

What is a plus/LE some of you will be thinking.... ha

Le all the way but I wont slag off the
plus just because its inferior to the le!

Plus over LE any day. I don't like the festive interior of a LE.

I have to say i have always dreamed of owning a le if i could afford one or if the missus would let me.

Having spent so much on my near mint 16vt now if they was fetching the money i would sell and buy a le anybody want a swap??

I still have the Auto DS Zender kit I never got round to fitting on my Sprinty. I think it's an omen there may be a Sprinty No 3..

I agree the LE interior can look a bit cheap if it's not been looked after, but a clean one I think still looks good.


Not too bad for a car with 90K+ mileage.

Picture taken before I added the dash panels which close off that nasty hole in the footwell. Those panels really finish off the interior.

Sorry, I was just wiping my keyboard. I'd started thinking about Vinci Grey LEs.

An le is one thing but a vinci grey one is just plain automotive porn!

Not that I am bias!

The only model I wanted was a Sprint Blue 20VT but after viewing a couple I releised the only Coupe I really wanted was a Black LE !!

I love the fact the red brakes, piller badges & push button start go with the interior colour. Plus the matching colours of the wheels, filler cap, grille, headlamps, rear light cups & of course the door mirrors all shout LE when you see one as sadly the other models will pass by without that presents.

Dont get me wrong I can praise the coupes all day long & am excited when I see another on the roads..... I just the model Ive always wanted in my heart of hearts.

Standard fit on a Plus. All part of making the Plus that bit classier

But I thought the plus was assembled from leftover bits and bobs just to clear the unwanted parts bins?

Well we all know what "thought" did

Ha ha ha you cant beat a bit of banter!!! (le's are better though)

two cars i would love. Black le or Sprint blue plus. unsure which one more

Being the current owner of a Sprint Blue Plus and the ex owner of Marios red LE I still prefer the LE. I think the interior feels special when your inside the car. It suits red paintwork more than others though.

(At the car, not bilbo )

Black LE
Yellow Plus

Sprinty VT

END.

I like them both to be honest and when I'd set my heart on a coupe it was just a matter of which one came up first.

However you grow to love the LE interior even more when you realise people's reaction to it is verging on offense. It makes it all that bit better.

Executive lounge -v- tart's boudoir (as it's been described to me). One is very nice, one is very fun (so I'm told).

Lol superb!

Only way to win would be to own one of each!

Wider Plus alloys to hold a 225 tyre
Brushed aluminium push start button
Red brake calipers all round
Honeycombe front grill
Silver faced dials with 180mph speedo
Black Italian leather Recaro seats with red stitching

This is my ambition....

Amen to that

My VT6 is nicely understated - all the plus kit apart from the red stitching!

If you think the black leather interior is too dark.... get some tan leather as per my scruffy Sprinty!

I agree with that
