Offered for sale is a 2005 Elise, Chrome Orange with factory Touring Package. I acquired the car in October 2018, and am the second owner. I believe the car was originally titled in AZ. I am selling the car because of a change in my situation. I purchased the car with 18,792 miles, and it currently has 20,405 miles. Clean title. Non-smoking owner. Garage kept. Since I acquired the car, it has been maintained by William Thomas Roadsters. Bill Thomas is a well-respected authority for Lotus, and I am fortunate that he is about an hour from my home. He performed all of the major mechanical upgrades on this car, howeverI purchased the car with a Fujita intake and a Quicksilver stainless steel exhaust, both done by the original owner. Bill did a full inspection after I took ownership, and his inspection included assessment of the cam shafts; no wear detected. Since I’ve owned this car, it has been used for fun driving and 5 HPDE events. The car is located in southern NJ, 20 minutes from Philadelphia. Here are the details.
