You are right. It’s a black pack 220 with three exterior carbon panels- front access panel, deck lid and roll bar cover. Plus the carbon seats from the cup.
Those carbon pieces are big money. I have the deck lid and roll bar cover- not yet the front access panel. The seats, trimmed in the OEM pattern are ££££ as well.
I’d rather just buy a Sprint but they scarcely come up at all. I’ve no interest in the lower powered version, which I suppose narrows the field even further.
Don’t think I’ve ever seen one advertised in a private sale either .

Maybe. But there are loads of other cars I’d like to try. I’ve done well over the years keeping any depreciation I suffer to a minimum. The Elises for sale at £40k plus take seasons or years to sell. Stratton have had that red car well over 12 months.
I have the carbon parts to fit and I’ll buy a 220 if one presents with low miles (with forged wheels) in a private sale.
Due to the numbers available, they don’t seem much affected by depreciation. But they aren’t £40k plus cars - not for me anyway. I was offered your car at £32k and regret turning it down.

I’m not ‘complaining about missing out’ I’d rather not be into £40k plus for an Elise. So I’m not. They are value at what you paid. The market was pumped up for a long time but we are seeing an end to that now. I mentioned the Stratton car as it’s been for sale for seasons. Elises are niche cars, they don’t seem easy to sell.
Most looking for an Elise seem to want a Cup, which I don’t really covet. Not keen on the aero personally. As you say, you’ll do well with yours as it’s a rare spec. Enjoy in good health.
