2000 LOTUS ELISE

For sale is my very special S1 Lotus Elise. Standard but for S2 Bilstein suspension and a sports exhaust. Extensive history and a record of every service carried out since new. 55K miles.

The car underwent a recent complete suspension refresh. Rust removed using electrolysis, new OEM bushes, ball joints, drop links, track rod ends and rear toelink joints. Wishbones POR15 treated with gold hammered topcoat (2 coats of each). The underside of this car arguably looks better today than it did when it left the factory!

‘A’ service with cambelt completed in 2023 (fewer than 3000 miles ago); Fram oil & air filter with Shell 5-40W fully synthetic, Gates cambelt & tensioner. Conti alternator belt. New braided brake hoses with brake/clutch fluid change. New airbox hose, dizzy cap & rotor arm. 'B' service carried out 1500 miles prior to that. Good brake disks & pads.

The Titanium Silver bodywork is in excellent condition with just the odd stone chip and, most importantly, no signs of osmosis. Rimstock wheels are perfect and free from kerbing. Interior has some wear on the driver’s sill (like they all do) and benefits from having 111S black leather seats.

4 new Continental tyres, new battery and recent MOT. Car is due at Craig Moncrieff specialist in Edinburgh for a service in early July so that the car is ready for someone to just enjoy this summer.

Genuine Lotus hardtop by separate negotiation.
