Quite well sorted looking S2

Looks nice. Shame it's a CAT D write off. Be doing well getting near the asking price for it which is a shame. I know how hard it was to sell my CAT Elan I had last year.

Not an M100 but with the forum members skills on keeping out the water this surely has to be of interest to someone.

Saw it pop up this afternoon. Looks a great car with several of the more desirable updates. However, I can just imagine the conversation with the Financial Director:

"But it would be a matched pair"
"You don't need two Elans"
"But it's a nice colour - you like blue cars"
"You still don't need two Elans"
It's not a S2, though - I've always fancied an earlier model"
"We could have a new floor in the sitting room for half that"

So we will

Sorry, you need to get a more appreciative partner not sell the other Lotus !! Start the way you mean to go on

A fine point!.. I'll go shopping for an Esprit as well to teach her a lesson!

Don't do it Dave, Been there done that. Fortunately, I decided to keep both cars. If I had to sell one of them it would be the Evora.

Yes it's a great car to drive. It's the only one in Bahrain. But it's not an Elan. You can't drop the top down on a nice sunny day.

Don't tempt your luck An Esprit might be a bridge too far

I'm very fortunate in having a partner who actively encourages me. One wasn't enough so I was forced out to buy another 2 Now that I've sold one there's space on the drive again for another

Doesn't give essential information on ad but Mot expired June 2015 and done around 76k so would usually go at that price... think the problem is the 'custom bodywork'

'Agreed insurance of £6,500 ' what about a box of matches rather than ebay ?

This car has been up on EBay at least 4 times to my knowledge so far and not even a nibble

Are you getting shot of Elsie Jamie

[Nickydee]

How about this one


http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1992-LOTUS-EL ... 1614249438?

Brought to break but apparently seller has changed his mind. Must be a good car if the seller thinks it will fetch more complete bearing in mind the prices he asks for his parts. Don't expect a test drive!.

[dapinky]

Just a quick question - what is the highest known recorded mileage on any M100?

Whilst I have heard of many in their high 100's, and Gerald has/had one with well over 200K....

.... are they really 'known' for going over 300K??????

Nick - this was on EBay the other day then magically disappeared off their site for a few days and is obviously now back I bet it doesn't have a tool kit though

Dave - did you ever know or meet Richard with his BRG. Last time I saw the car (Lakes Sykeside camping trip and/or Donington yonks ago) it had done 230,000 miles from memory. I think he was recommissioning it a year or two ago so I hate to think how much is on the clock now

However, I've never heard anyone boast that "THESE ENGINES CAN COVER 300000+"

By the way, whats a jumper ? I thought it was something you wore when it got cold

"IT A 25 YEARS OLD CAR AFTER ALL NOT A JUMPER"

[dapinky]

Mark,

I don't think I ever met him, but it still falls far short of '300k+'.....

.... like you, I thought a jumper is a posh name for a wooly pully.
