Yep, the green with red interior is definitely full on S160 stuff...they don’t make them like this any more!

The car is de-catted but otherwise still running original suspension and everything else. Have to say the pops and bangs on the overrun are something else when it’s fully warmed up, and then there’s the idle smile

Scandal Green S160 has got to be the best looking Elise ever. The shape/wheels/colour combination is just perfect.

Car is back from the trimmers, and I am delighted with it. They’ve done a cracking job, would highly recommend. Only bit they’ve not done is the handbrake gaiter - because my car never had one, there was nothing to attach it to. I’ve ordered a black suede one with red stitching complete with mounting frame, if it doesn’t quite match they’ll modify it for me.

That's a very nice S160

Made me miss my old S1.

Welcome to the Cup club. Looks great. I’m a first time Lotus owner and bought a Cup. Great car. Is it a 220 or a 250?
If you are in Facebook then join the Elise Cup Owners Group.
There is also Elise Cup Owners Register too.

Tony,

Was at B&C on Sunday for a test drive in a 250. What a great car, will be buying one but waiting on specs available from Jamie. He is also a top guy.

You car looks great. Out of interest what year is it and how much did you pay ? Would like a nearly new but not many around sadly.

Hi. Yep Bell and Covill. Actually it’s a new Voodoo Blue 250. Alcantara interior, air con / noise suppression / carpets (yes I’m a wuss 😂), cruise control (for those damn average speed cameras). No carbon pack or ti exhaust or two piece exhaust. Might add some carbon at a later stage espically didn’t feel that the carbon splitter/side skirts was a option since I’d probably scrape them at some point. Looking forward to picking it up on Saturday.
