LOTUS ELISE CUP 250 GP Edition 2018

Due to country move, I am regretly putting for sale my beloved Elise Cup 250 GP Edition. The lower-than-average price reflects the urgency - the car is in superb shape! The car received the RRR Motorsport 300 HP upgrade, composed of 2Bular 250 4-1 manifold, sports cat and backbox, charge cooler, intake kit, smaller supercharge pulley and the EMU Black ECU. The upgrade brought the car power to aprox. 297 HP at the crank (253.5 hp at the wheels @7150 RPM). You can see the dyno results in the pictures. The upgrades were done in March 2022 and the car is running 100% OK since them (including passing MOT). The car is a track killer and it is accelerating like never before (0-62 in 3.7 sec, measured with RaceBox), and it is a huge fun to drive - on and off the tracks. All the original parts replaced are with me and can part of the sale if the new owner so wish (see pictures). The car is in great shape, and will be serviced and MOT'ed at Bell and Colvill before deliver (at my expense). So, you will get a ready to go car. Just test drive it and you will see how good it is. Smooth acceleration and torque curves, nos gasps or issues.

This is the GP Edition of the Cup 250, and I do have the Lotus Certificate of Provenance showing how exclusive this car is (the first out of only 5 sold in UK!). Starting by the colours and wheels, and going all the way to the gold-flaked metallic paint, it is a work of art and a head-turner. The car has the optional Lotus original carbon fibre bucket seats and super light forged wheels. A car to be driven and cherished for a long time, still.

Car has almost new Toyo R888 tyres and new Pagid RS brake pads. It has both hard and soft tops, and it goes with a Lithium battery charger. Original speakers were replaced with the much better Focal ones. Car has PPF in the front and side, also on the side mirrors. It wasn't very well done, so there's some lifting (might be noticeable in the pictures). I didn't remove the PPF as it is still accomplishing what it was designed to do: Protect the paint. Car vanity plates will go with it (GP18 CUP). I am the second owner. The mileage I put in was mainly from trips I took with the car (right now I am in Portugal with it, returning on the 15th of July - the return journey is already accounted for in the announced 15k miles). I simply love to travel with it. I did track the car from time to time, and always looked after it carefully before and after each track day. So, the car is very well maintained. Never had an accident - not even a minor one (neither did the previous owner). All manuals, keys and the Black and Gold certificate of provenance kit is included.

I am away from UK at the moment (taking care of my move) and will be back beggining on the 15th of July. Will be happy to show the car then. I can't take part exchange as I will be leaving UK soon. So, please, firm cash offers only.

Priced to sell! That's the cheapest Cup 250 on sale... an unique opportunity!
