Description
2005 Lotus Elise 111S Touring Finished in titanium silver over black leather interior.
Originally supplied by JCT600 and registered on the 11 January 2005, this Lotus Elise 111s is one of the last K series cars produced and being a Touring specification means the car benefits from noise reduction in the cockpit and taller gearbox ratios.
The last owner purchased the car in 2017 from well-known and respected Elise Specialist Will Blackman and has clearly been cherished throughout its life as the car presents and drives beautifully.
Over the years the car has been fitted with a number of sensible and desirable upgrades including
• Front Splitter
• Upgraded Tow Hook
• HID Headlight Conversion
• Elise Parts uprated front discs with bells & slotted discs
• Upgraded EP Radiator
• Windscreen washer incorporated into wipe arm
• Front Mesh Grill
• Engine Cover Mesh Grill
• Upgraded EP Gear Linkage
• Nitron Street Series 2 Shock Absorbers
• Janspeed Rear Exhaust Box with Big Bore Pipes (sounds ace!)
• Hurricane Induction Kit
• EP Diffuser Eliminator Drop Kit
• OMP Super quadro steering wheel
• EP Removable Steering Wheels Boss with 40mm Extension
• Alpine CDE Head Unit with blue tooth and DAB
The service history is fully documented including a fully stamped service book until 2017 when the last owner purchased the car at approximately 44, 000 miles. Since then the car has only covered a further 4800 miles and we understand that the last owner carried out regular oil changes himself.
We have fully inspected and serviced the car, and made the decision whilst 'we were in there' to remove the cylinder head, have it skimmed and pressure tested and to fit a new head gasket and associated parts to allow the new owner to use and enjoy the car safe in the knowledge that the venerable K Series engines Achilles heal had been dealt with.
Supplied with the original book pack, both keys, original tool kit and a ring binder full of service and upgrade receipts.
These Elise 111S are fantastic fun to drive and we have no doubt this excellent example with delight its next owner and we welcome prospective purchasers to view and inspect the car on our ramp if desired.
