Hi all, after nearly buying an elise 18 months ago, only to do the sensible thing and buy a flat, i picked up an S1 sport 160 last night. Its titanium with black 111s seats, 2 previous owners, one of which was C/O Lotus, got Sports suspension and the upgraded alarm.

This is going to be a long weekend - i'll need to wait until Monday when i get the insurance Cert' to tax it, plenty of to speed it along tonight then.

A crappy phone pic last night:

Wow! Looks beautiful. Well done, I've always loved the way the 160 looks.

Pity about the 111S seats.

Get rid of that CAT and get a sports exhaust for pops and bangs if it has not already been done.

Sensible move on the flat front.

If it's got 111s style seats its a straight 160 and not a 160S. No big deal. Nice colour mate, welcome to the cool club

Get an induction kit on it and a 52mm throttle body. I have these on mine and it sounds nuts. I used a lotus additions induction kit.

A great car purchase, you will never regret it !
