not sure what model it is, its on an 04 plate so I think its to new for a 49?

I am new to the Lotus elise & am looking to get one

any hints on posting a few pics?

Cant view the pictures!

sorry try again

The paint job is Type 49. It is a little unusual as it has up to date wheels and I thought Lotus stopped doing ltd editions about 18 months ago.

Beautiful though!

For the right amount of money wouldn't they will spray the car whatever colour you want though?

That's a guy form the EALC (East Anglian Lotus Club)

www.eastanglialotusclub.org/cgi-bin/ealc.cgi?action=welcome

Try the link for their site, might be worth an email etc to find out more about the car.

Nope, I wanted a custom paint job (and they advertise custom paint for £1k) but I was told that the factory was too busy and they couldnt do it.

The car is a 111r with a custom paint job not a type 49 - the exhaust is central, exiting through the rear diffuser, so must be toyota engined. Looks like harnesses in as well. Interesting paintwork though not my speed.
