I hope you enjoyed the video, if you have any questions, please ask below and I'll do my best to answer!
what is the name of the lotus german tuner?

If Lotus copied your mods and had it on offer from factory they'd sell a lot of cars. It looks and sounds perfect(sure it handles as well).
How much did it cost all up. 100k?
Really beautiful building your car.
that has to be one of the most desirable custom interiors ive ever seen
This is the most beautiful lotus I’ve ever seen
Totally agree
This car is more unique than every limited car today
Don’t ever let anyone say that money doesn’t bring happiness. This guy is loving life
My car is like my therapy, when I'm driving it or working on it, I'm happy and forget life's other problems...
GFWilliams this is very true, same here. When I am really stressed out or need to motivate myself I’ll go for a drive. Best part is when it’s golden hour, it’s just so unspeakably beautiful.
It helps for a bit. But once you stop chasing the dollar, existential crisis starts to kick in.
It doesn't bring happiness by itself, but you can have a Lotus that makes you happy every time you drive it
Money can distract you from unhappiness at best. But happiness or unhappiness is apart of who you are - it applies well before you lay eyes on your wallet of a morning.
Why hasn't lotus offered this guy a job, i'e never wanted a lotus more after watching something like this.
Fair play mate, that is easily the sweetest Exige I've ever seen. Everything you've done has improved it, but it still looks OEM and doesn't scream mod.
GreyMatr couldn’t agree more. It just looks so clean
I've followed you for years as a photographer, but today you showed me your eye when it comes to your own car details. And it is perfect
Thanks, I appreciate the support!
@@GFWilliamsnet I've followed you since I found a tutorial you did of a ferrari in a hanger. Years ago
Holy shit dude, this spec is perfection. I've always found the Lotus interiors really off-putting, but this is remarkable. Kudos
The engine is the most off putting
@@ukskills6615 lotus is all about downforce and traction it’s a tiny car if you want something with a lot a hp get a hellcat or a Shelby
@@simeonspence1953 i understand that its just not very cool having a toyota engine in your sports car
@@ukskills6615 does it not sound good? 😅
Wow! Nice to see someone modify a car with aesthetic good taste firmly in mind! The air vents I completely ‘get’ and it was worth all the effort 👍
Man, this is great build and truly an original.
I feel like today Lotus is the only brand that is making car that are meant to be driven and enjoyed and not just to show up your money in front of pubs.
Incredible customisation, congrats!
Andre Tennis totally agree mate. People ask what car do wanna get if you get a few quid. I said one of these with the right power and mods these are pretty much amazing in every aspect. Brilliant car
lotus - give this man a job. The interior here is amazing.
This is likely the most impressive custom car build I have ever seen. Your taste for colors and creativity for fitment make this Lotus absolutely gorgeous, Lotus should be jealous. Every single detail on this car I love, it's jaw dropping.
This guy is very dedicated to the cause. This guy makes a better car than most auto. manufacturers. I bet all the big nobs like Jay Leno would love this car. I love the Alcantara wraps and the Ferrari air vents. Personally I can't afford a Ferrari, but I feel I could stretch to four Ferrari air vents. @GFWilliams he made a very nice car
Man my heart explodes when i see you shipping in so much passion in all those details! thanks so much for presenting your beautiful Lotus to us!
Wow best looking exige ever
The whole thing is incredible, you have really, really good taste. I can’t believe how good that interior is.
This car is a gem! You ve tastefully transformed the Lotus into the superclass genre.
That is an awesome build! Lotus is my favorite brand as they make exciting cars with so much emotion. I can't imagine the feeling you get when you walk towards your car. I bet you walk at half the speed just to cherish that moment even more.
So rare to see a build finish up so clean and cohesive; just at a first glance it is obvious that a lot of thought and attention to detail were put into every change, you should be really proud of this build man!
All those mods and the rear view mirror is still a Rover Metro. Absolutely love this
Wow what a gorgeous car all around. Outside, inside, engine, sound...perfection.
Such a beautiful car and all the touches just brings it to another level!
Amazingly clean build. When I look at a car that’s done so well and so tastefully that the car looks stock to the untrained eye, that’s perfection. Every now and then my TH-cam feed offers up pure gold. Glad you popped up. Great car. I can’t say that enough.
Stunning car! Every modification was so well thought out. No expense spared. Well done!
So cool to see you here and showing off your masterpiece! Looks EPIC and with such a good taste, considering so much mods, but that's where the magic is... So absolutely proud of you! Kudos! You keeping it for a good while i hope!
Absolutely gorgeous Exige, and sounds wonderful. Stellar job, George!
Man its rare a car this modified still looks like it could be stock. Even the rear diffuser and front splitter are done tastefully. That custom shop your working with has great taste. Really spot on man well done.
That car is incredible. That's a project done properly.
Wow, plain amazing! That's a stunning piece of art you've created! I think I'm not just talking for myself when I say you can be proud of it!
What a beautiful car every modification just makes sense and they all go great together.
Everything about this build is so tasteful! That interior is a master piece of execution and design.
It is not about how the car has driven enhancement or how it looks, it is all about how much effort you have put into it........great effort !!!!!!!!!!
Brilliant work. I will always have a soft spot in my heart for the Exige. My first contact with one was in the early 2000s when I started Kingston University. My campus had one in the reception area, it was donated by Lotus to the faculty as they were sponsoring some of the automotive engineering courses. Sometimes we got the chance to sit down inside. It was a car that I promised my self if I ever made it in life I would buy. Recently I popped back into uni just for old times sake to meet up with old friends and to reminisce about the good old days, was shocked to see the state that the little Exige was in. The university had not take care of it at all, there was moss growing in the window seals and you could see the rot had settled in the engine. There were cracks in the body and the paint was discoloured. Watching this video had triggered the urge to buy the old lotus and restore it to its former glory.
Great story, it'd be great to restore it to it's former glory!
The interior of this car is the best I've ever seen. Gear shifter !!! Materials !!! Wooooow.
Wow wow wow, I think this is one of the cleanest builds I've ever seen. On first glance you wouldn't think so much has been done to it but when you zoom in on the details it's so impressive. Every detail has been made perfect and its amazing to see how much work has gone into perfecting this car. I absolutely love it!
Thanks, it really is how I wanted it to be now, if you don’t know about Exige’s, you’d look at it and just think “that’s a nice Exige”. If you do know about Exiges you can spend a long time spotting the little improvements!
I didn't even realise how much you've done to this. Very nice mods. The longer I watch this video the more I appreciate the work put in and the insane amount of money too.
Wow.... Just wow. What an amazing amount of detail and work put in. Very well built!
Lotus, watch & learn ! Amazing build. Probably the most beautiful I even seen so far.
Magnificent machine George. Always nice to see someone with both the passion for a proper drivers car and the intent to drive it (rather than just garaging it). The custom spec is fantastic as well.
The amount of custom work is amazing. Usually such a heavily modified car can lose value but this has got to be a special piece that will be of great value to someone.
What an absolute dream of a car!!! And by far the most beautiful Exige I've ever seen!
LOVE IT! The digital dash and tail lights look amazing.
This exige is really the most proper work i‘ve ever seen👍 awesome!
congratulations, this is the best mod Exige in my opinion. The interior is phenomenal
my god this is an amazing build,super tasteful and doesnt lose that lotus look
I love what you've created. The rear lights is a favourite, but the whole package is very special. Well done.
Awesome!! Your attention to detail is out of this world. Now just to build an Exige a bit like this....
What a beautiful car! Those interior mods make this the dream lotus, no question!
Amazing car! You did so much work on it yet you retained that factory feel in a way. It looks like it is supposed to be this way. Great job, hats off to you!
Been following you for a few years now, and love your work outside of TH-cam. I liked this video a lot! Hope you keep this up, with other sporty cars :)
WOW so nice! Congratulations on this truly great accomplishment. Tuned and modified with taste and sense.
Loved the video! So nice to have an indepth review of all of the mods! its one amazing car! Congrats!
That's a very tasteful set of upgrades - well done!
BEST looking lotus!! Wow congratulations man!! Happy for you!!! Thanks for sharing such a beautiful customization
Loved the video!! I’ve been wanting something like on your car this ever since I found you on insta! Amazing, amazing car and the production quality on the video was outstanding!
This car is what lotus should be. Congratulations and enjoy that beautiful machine, sir.
The production quality is just perfect, also u have a great taste in modifications
Honest video; love your Lotus and big compliment on the video. Subscribed and looking forward to future video’s!
Love what you’ve done, nice work!
Without obsession your aims and ambitions are unreachable , the car is a credit to you and I enjoyed watching the video.
this is so clean and so good that I am watching it multiple times
Absolutely love everything apart from the steering wheel and vents. You totally smashed it with the mirrors:)
Absolutely love the car. Great work and attention to detail. You lucky man!
Well done man, didn't realize you had done so much to it. Great mods, and the total package is very well done.
Absolutely awesome upgrades and presentation... 👏🏼❤️
What a fantastic work man. It looks better than anything Lotus offers and that is crazy. Im blown away by this. You kept the Lotus spirit of keeping things simple and light but you managed to make it beautiful and extreme quality, something that Lotus still cant do. Enjoy it.
Great work! Very clean! Nicely done!
What a true piece of art. Well done with the customization 😲👍
Lovely motor! The interior is so much better than stock. The vents make a massive difference 👌
Compliments! Amazing tuning!!
Amazing work done on this masterpiece, well done mate
Wow. Fantastic work. Love this car and who knew what else it could become?!
That sound! 😍 absolutely love these! It has to be an obtainable dream car!
the most beautiful exige I've ever seen.. damn good mate
The work you guided is AWESOME! I own a 2009 / 2010 Elise, been thinking about some upgrades. I'm going to use your work as a guide. Beautiful
Wow! Best car mods ever! You have got some seriously awesome skills.
It's very rare to come across such a heavily modified car and love everything about it but I think you're spot on about every little detail, it looks and sounds sensational. Never really wanted a Lotus but this car definitely changed that!
Thanks, that's good to hear that I didn't go too far (yet)!
Excellent video all around. I highly enjoyed getting to learn more about the Exige. I also really appreciate that you went in-depth with your explanations for each change. I can very much relate with your thought processes and decisions made. I would absolutely love to do something like this with my cars, present and future.
Thanks, it's sometimes difficult to know where to stop when modifying and how to keep things tasteful. I think I've managed to do it quite well, although I can't guarantee all future mods will be quite as restrained!
Just superb ! Very tastefully modified !!
Excellent car! Lightweight, powerful, delightful modifications.. what else can i say? 10/10!
Hell yeah, custom tricks from a Lotus owner ! I love your mirror design. I've never seen anyone brave enough to "cut up" a newer exotic before. You're obviously a true hot rodder.
Just wow! It looks like that interior is from the factory! A++ job 👍🍻
I've been a fan of your photography work for a long, long time. But I'm now also a fan of your car choices and mods, very very nice Lotus you got there. Keep the videos coming. :)
Thanks! I have some new videos on the way soon with some exciting new stuff on the car...
Looks like a mini F40, love it.
EPIC Lotus and EPIC video
Amazingly clean build
This some refreshing content from the British scene well done!
New subscriber 👌🏼 I love your attention to detail and the distance you were willing to go to create a real unique car. Can’t put a price on smiles per miles 👍🏼
Probably the sickest lotus I’ve seen 😍
Love your taste. The interior is absolutely gorgeous and the exhaust notes are a total EarGasm. Well Done👊
Brilliant work on car and terrific video. Congratulations on both.
Such an amazing car. I'm blown away by Exige's now. This has to be the car I work towards. Well done mate, great vid!. My current project in a Mini Cooper S R53, in a very small similar way it's pretty raw as a hot hatch. I look forward to checking out your other vid on the Exige!
Not a fan of yellow paint or carbonfibre or alcantara BUT this is the nicest Exige I've seen. You are rightly proud.
The interior is out of this world! When I saw the exposed gearbox linkage I was confused...because your Exige is older then when those were fitted. Good cal into explaining and nice it can be retrofitted!
Aces! Awesome sound and great attention to detail
Interior is superbly done, very tasteful 👌
Fantastic work - well done
Amazing car , love the custom work
