Some cars need a sport button to make them interesting. A supercharged Lotus Exige gets on with it from the moment you climb over the sill. Finished in Pearl White with black wheels and carbon-fibre details, this 2008 Exige S looks every bit as purposeful as it should. Exceptionally clean and beautifully presented, it’s a rare sight on Irish roads, with the history and specialist attention to make it particularly appealing. With just 49,000 kilometres and five previous owners, it comes with an outstanding, fully documented service history spanning two service books. Imported from UK Lotus specialist Jon Seal Sportscars in March 2023, it has been dry stored throughout its current ownership and serviced annually. The money spent here has gone into the right places. HPE previously refurbished the upper and lower suspension arms and replaced all bushes, while new original Lotus Bilstein suspension was fitted in 2023. In 2024, extensive work was carried out by Hangar 111, a UK Lotus specialist. Having this work undertaken by a workshop familiar with these cars and their particular requirements is an important part of its history. This included a full gearbox rebuild with replacement third-gear synchro and new seals, a Helix clutch and a Fidanza lightweight flywheel. With the front clam removed, a new radiator, hoses, fittings and air-conditioning condenser were installed. Fresh fluids and a full suspension geometry setup completed the mechanical work. The front clam was repainted to address stone chips, the headlining retrimmed and the engine cover refinished. A few chips have appeared since, but the overall presentation reflects the care this car has received. A full paint correction and three-year ceramic coating were carried out in 2025. The HPE billet shifter deserves a mention of its own. Fitted and set up by HPE with new original Lotus gear cables, it’s a lovely piece of engineering that makes the shift much more precise. A polybushed rear engine mount complements the setup. Other highlights include a TRD airbox, 2bular exhaust, extended rear diffuser, carbon-fibre front splitter, carbon engine cover and carbon sill covers. Inside, custom embroidered Corbeau LE Pro leather seats, Alcantara door cards and an AIM digital dash finish things off nicely. Replacement window seals, a new battery, EBC discs, Mintex pads and four Nankang NS-2R tyres add to the extensive expenditure, with the brakes and tyres fitted in 2025. Finding an Exige S in Ireland is unusual. Finding one this clean, with such comprehensive history and so many of the major jobs already addressed, makes it particularly special. All the right touches to improve the experience without losing what makes these cars so appealing. Getting in gracefully remains the next owner’s responsibility.

I bought my first Classic Pajero from Simon recently. From my first interaction with Simon to delivery I had a very pleasant experience. When viewing the vehicle, I took my time and Simon let me take as long as I wanted and he was there in the background to answer any questions I had. I felt very comfortable throughout the viewing. Due to my personal circumstances, the purchase took a little longer than usual, and Simon was very understanding about this. I came away with a beautiful Pajero and felt confident and extremely happy with my purchase. I can’t speak highly enough of Simon and his team. Finally I’d just like to say, I’m not a collector or dealer, I just turned 50 and decided to treat myself, so if you are thinking of your first classic car, I can highly recommend Deane Motors and Simon.
I can’t recommend Simon highly enough. Over the years, I have trusted him with both selling my own classic cars and purchasing vehicles on my behalf, and every experience has been exceptional. What sets him apart is his remarkable attention to detail. Nothing is overlooked—from paint depth, chassis condition, originality of components, and matching numbers, to the quality of previous restoration work and even the smallest signs of wear that many others would miss. His inspections are incredibly thorough, honest, and backed by genuine expertise rather than just trying to make a sale. You either have an eye for a car or you don’t, Simon does. I also requested him inspect a car on my behalf in Holland before I committed to buying, without seeing the vehicle myself. His assessment was accurate, balanced, and completely trustworthy, giving me the confidence to make informed decisions. If he recommends a car, I know exactly what I’m getting. If they advise walking away, it’s for a good reason. On the sales side, he has always represented my cars professionally, accurately, and with complete integrity. Communication can be on a fine line at times throughout the process and yes it can be frustrating and having spent time with Simon I appreciate how busy he is running the workshop from a mobile ordering parts and keeping the likes of his PA (Simon Walsh) on his toes In the classic car world, trust is everything, and Simon has earned mine time and time again. Whether you’re buying, selling, or need an expert pre-purchase inspection, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him. His knowledge, meticulous eye for detail, and unwavering honesty make them one of the very best in the business. Keep flying the classic car flag lads, Iv tried over the years to sell classic cars and failed.. these are not new cars, these are old cars trying to be kept alive by the likes of Deane Motors..Backboned by the legend Ollie Deane
Simon is an absolute gent, I was stuck for a way to get out to the dealership and he picked me up from Dublin City centre (now that was him being sound, don’t expect him to do that for you too!) but the whole way out I got to learn alot about life and business from him! A very genuine man, absolutely does not fit the stereotype of a sleazy salesman trying to rip you off! He’s genuinely prioritising a great customer experience for you over squeezing any bit of extra cash out of you! They’ve a serious collection of motors on offer there too! I highly highly recommend 🫡
