1991 Cracking low mileage 2 owner car SOLD
This car was recently a barn find after the previous owners husband stopped working on her, brake overhaull. She had been left sitting for 6 years.
To get her back up and running a new set of matched flowed, uprated injectors were fitted. New calipers all round and new pads. She had been previously fitted with new updated discs back and front before being left with vented discs on the front, so only required a strip down and a good clean. The chassis was in excellent condition with only slight surface rust so this was all cleaned and given a coat of under body compound. Four new tires were fitted on re painted wheel’s in the correct Silver as they were previously a dull Grey color, the wheels which also had the Lotus name painted in Lotus Yellow along with the calipers, all fluids etc changed. Stainless Steel wire braided brake hoses are also fitted. Fuel filters changed twice to make sure no crud was coming from the tank and she went for her first MOT in 6 years and passed with no advisories.
Since she was now up and running well, she was sent to our local paint shop who did a cracking paint job on both upper front wings, the front bumper, rear spoiler and boot lid which had all suffered by the usual lacquer lifting. Her hood is in very, very good condition and only required a deep clean, it was then treated to an Auto Glym 3 part treatment which included a sealer, re proofer and dye. It now looks as good as new with no rip’s or tear’s, even the seal’s are good.
The interior was given a bloody good clean and came up well with no splits or tears on the original dark Grey Leather with Yellow stripe seats. She has quality Grey carpet’s (could still use further cleaning) with quality Grey over mats embossed with the Lotus logo as are the headrest’s.
She has now had her first damn good clean and polish in six years and is looking particularly good.
Her genuine mileage when rescued was 42, 250. This has obviously increased by a couple of hundred gentle miles as I have been gradually breaking her in. She has a nice tone from her sport’s exhaust, not to loud, just enough to let them know your coming.
She has had only two owners from new, the last owner having had her since April 2003. She comes with all her original documentation, hand book’s and service book’s showing the original dealers stamps and service history.
Even the original alarm immobiliser/ alarm still works and has two fob’s
This little Elan must be one of the lowest mileage car’s around which has not been thrashed, has genuine history with full documentation to prove and therefore a good sound investment for the future.
Email for photographs as I cant get them to load.
