LOTUS ELISE 111S 1999

Hi, for sale is my 1999 Lotus Elise S1 111s with 77,650 miles (Azure Blue). With only 2 previous owners on the V5. The last owner owned it for 22yrs. I acquired the car in Aug 2022 and is now located Aberdeenshire, UK. This is my 7th Lotus Elise variant to own over 25yrs, and my 3rd S1. Feel free to ask any usual S1 questions as the car has had huge amounts of work to bring it to its current condition.

The car comes with / has:

* Full set of keys, cobra alarm fob and Lotus service booklets.

* Full-service history and receipts for all work carried out.

* The Lotus Certificate of Conformity is also present for any EU/USA perspective buyers.

* OEM Lotus hardtop (excellent condition)

* OEM dark blue soft top (excellent condition)

* Matching azure blue roll bar cover

* Focal speakers and iPhone head unit with DAB radio wire in the dashboard.

* ITG Carbon airbox & SS exhaust system

The car also has an option of seats to choose from. You can either fit the original Lotus 111s seats to keep the OEM look, which came with the car (black leather – with slight wear, see photos) or the Corbeau Carbon backed seats currently fitted (slightly more comfy, better lateral hold / movement).

Overall, a superb car which is in fantastic working / restored order. Time for it to find a new home.

Quick service history overview (previous owner):

The car lived its life in outer London area and regularly maintained by Lotus or periodically Steve Williams before it was stored. The previous owner after 12yrs of regular use took it off the road, put into storage between 2013 to 2022. Steve Williams had the job to recommission it in July 2022 (£4k receipt at 68K miles).
