2005 Lotus Elise

Overview

Finished in Starlight Black with a rare cloth interior, this Elise was ordered without the Touring or Sport Pack. The suspension has recently been refreshed to help it handle like new again, and a faster steering rack has been fitted to give it an even more nimble feeling. Known for its legendary handling and its playfulness in the curves, the Elise is an absolute joy to drive at the limit. Despite being so capable from the factory, mostly unmodified examples like this one are rare – making this a good find for the purists among us.

    Reported Accidents
    One or more accidents have been found on record through police reports or insurance claims.

    Accidents usually aren’t deal-breakers, but they can affect the condition and value of the vehicle. We always recommend Carfax and AutoCheck reports followed by a pre-purchase inspection (PPI) - even if there are no accidents listed (as some accidents go unreported).
