2001 LOTUS EXIGE

2001 Lotus Exige S1 finished in a striking blue with just 11,937 miles from new, manual gearbox and an exceptional service history.

This outstanding example represents a rare opportunity to acquire one of the most sought after modern Lotus models in truly remarkable condition. Described during appraisal as being in 'out of the box condition', this is a very low mileage and rare original car that has clearly been cherished throughout its life.

The Series 1 Exige is regarded by many enthusiasts as the purest expression of the Lotus philosophy. Developed from the acclaimed Elise platform, the Exige introduced enhanced aerodynamics, increased downforce and a more focused driving experience while retaining the lightweight engineering principles established by Colin Chapman. Its combination of low weight, communicative handling and naturally aspirated performance has cemented the Exige S1 as a modern classic and a highly collectable performance car. First registered in 2001, this particular example remains wonderfully original and unmodified, making it especially appealing to collectors and enthusiasts seeking authenticity.

The vehicle has covered just 11,934 miles and benefits from a comprehensive maintenance record including servicing completed by respected Lotus specialists and main dealers. Service history includes August 2002 at 5,282 miles; December 2013 at 7,019 miles; March 2015 at 8,149 miles; February 2016 at 9,901 miles; April 2018 at 11,497 miles and June 2020 at 11,911. In addition, a documented, major service was completed in May 2026 at 11,934 miles. The car has been in dry storage. The MOT is valid until 03 May 2027. Vehicles of this calibre rarely become available, particularly with such low mileage, originality and ownership credentials. A highly desirable example of one of the most important Lotus performance models of the modern era.
