Lotus Elise 1.8 Convertible – Ruby Red
Offered by Signature Classics, Totnes, Devon
Experience the pure enjoyment of driving this striking ruby-red Lotus Elise 1.8 Convertible. Lightweight, responsive and unmistakably styled, it delivers engaging performance and the distinctive engineering character that has made the Elise a favourite among sports-car enthusiasts.
Exterior
The Elise’s distinctive silhouette is defined by clean aerodynamic lines and a purposeful sporting stance. A custom-made front splitter complements the design, while the stunning alloy wheels complete its eye-catching appearance. Finished in vibrant ruby red, this is a car that looks every bit as exciting as it feels to drive.
Interior
The driver-focused cabin keeps distractions to a minimum and places the emphasis firmly on the road ahead. Unique custom-made seat covers and carbon-fibre door-sill covers add individual touches, while a new carpet set and shower-cap cover further enhance the specification. The period CD/radio provides entertainment on longer journeys.
Performance and Maintenance
The 1.8-litre petrol engine is perfectly matched to the Elise’s lightweight chassis and agile handling. Recent work includes a new radiator, cooling fan and thermostat, together with poly hoses. The car also benefits from a stainless-steel sports exhaust, catalytic converter and uprated braking components, with EBC Green Stuff pads fitted all round.
The head gasket was replaced just 2,600 miles ago. At the same time, the cylinder head was skimmed and a new multi-layer gasket fitted, providing further reassurance for the next owner.
Additional Upgrades and History
An IHG carbon cone-fibre induction filter adds to the car’s performance-focused specification. It is accompanied by an extensive and complete history file: a substantial, three-inch-thick collection of invoices and service receipts documenting its maintenance and care.
The car comes with the original owner’s handbook and Parts 1 and 2 of the Lotus workshop manuals.
A Distinctive Driver’s Car
Whether you are a committed Lotus enthusiast, a collector or simply looking for a characterful open-top sports car, this Elise deserves serious consideration. Its combination of recent mechanical improvements, extensive history and unmistakable road presence makes it a compelling example.
