Inspired by a recent result of Levine-Lidman-Piccirillo, we construct infinitely many exotic smooth structures on some closed four-manifolds with definite intersection form and fundamental group isomorphic to \Z /2\Z. Similar constructions provide exotic smooth structures on further four-manifolds with fundamental group Z/2\Z, including examples with even b2+.
