Quite possibly ... It was too hard to turn down with its history, condition and mileage.

It's a lovely car that's wanted for nothing; few cosmetic bits to tidy up as you'd expect, and just given the interior a deep clean as well as cleaning out a few hard to reach areas and treating the rubbers / plastics.

It'll be living in the garage and only doing a few k miles / yr when it's dry and warm.

Nice, I like the colour…. thumbup

I bought this 111S from JS back in January, similar story, great history, condition and mileage.

I’ve put 3.5k on it since then, 1k of which was a long weekend in Ypres for Ypres Lotus Day.

Excellent choice, however, as much as I would have liked an Exige s1 (I did want one but it was beyond my budget so Elise s1 111s it was), not sure I would swop an Elise s1 and Exige s2 for an Exige s1 - a lot of thinking required to make that decision.

Market conditions for selling, and the need to reduce two to one made it quite an easy decision. My S2 Exige was for sale and just no bites whatsoever. The S1 Elise was higher mileage and modified too so on the lower end value was, so a little bit of man maths meant it worked out.

Our two at my wedding back in June this year. The Elan had a bit of assistance getting there from the AA due to the starter motor giving up about 15 miles away rolleyes.

Dug out of a hedge in 2012, got on the road September last year. A lot of work still to do.

Didn't you have a thread about that car on here? So pleased you've got it back on the road again, wonderful effort.
