About this car

The Sport 160 is one of the more focused Series 1 Elises, a lightweight, stripped-back take on Lotus's original small roadster. This 2000 car has covered just 26,000 miles, which is very low for an Elise of this age and a good part of its appeal.

It is finished in New Aluminium with blue Alcantara and black trim, and a blue soft top. Full harness seat belts are fitted alongside the standard belts. The dealer describes it as original apart from a Janspeed sports exhaust.

The car has a full service history. It has just come out of long-term storage and is being recommissioned, serviced and MOT'd. The page lists the price as "£30.000", which appears to be a typing slip for £30,000.
