Hi guys,
I’m tentatively putting my S1 Exige up for sale, I bought it in the summer on a total whim (I needed to buy a car for a road trip to Lemans Classic in July 2018, so I found my ‘dream car’ and bought it, massively early 
)…But I have no use for it and ultimately taking up a fair chunk of my working capital and space…If it doesn’t sell, I shall keep her tucked up until July.
The details:
Lotus Exige S1
VHPD 190
WVTA Exportable version
2000 X Reg
13,200 miles
2 owners, first owner right the way to December 16.
Lazer Blue paintwork
Alcantara and leather interior
Airconditioning
No modifications
The car has all original paintwork and wears its age with pride, showing stone chips to the front end and side skirts, but nothing unusual for the age and you have to be examining closely to see these. The interior is honestly like new with no wear to any areas. The alcantara parts which can commonly wear and bobble are entirely fresh and have no stains or wear.
The service history of the car is as follows:
03/05/2001 - 915 miles, Storm of Leicester
30/04/2002 - 2,575 miles, Storm of Leicester
09/05/2003 - 4,307 miles, Orchard Lotus
28/05/2004 - 5,351 miles, Orchard Lotus
13/05/2005 - 7,084 miles, Orchard Lotus
24/03/2006 - 7,653 miles, Stratstone Lotus
06/09/2007 - 8,509 miles, Christopher Neil Ltd.
12/09/2008 - 9,086 miles, Christopher Neil Ltd.
09/10/2009 - 9,668 miles, Christopher Neil Ltd.
06/07/2010 - 9,998 miles, Castle Lotus
31/08/2011 - 10,799 miles, Castle Lotus
13/06/2013 - 11,610 miles, Barry Ely Sports Cars
07/08/2015 - 12,298 miles, Barry Ely Sports Cars
01/09/2016 - 12,620 miles, Barry Ely Sports Cars
18/09/2017 - 13,167 miles, Phoenix Motorsports
The car has all tax discs from new (until they stopped being issued), the original bookpack and all four keys (two with alarm fobs and two without) and plenty of receipts and paperwork. I took the car to Phoenix Motorsports in Accrington for its latest service and I told him to do whatever was required to get it up to an extremely high standard (like I have done with other Lotus I have owned) and the result was nothing more than a B service and a rocker cover gasket. The under trays were removed and scrubbed clean before being refitted also. He informs me it is one of the tidiest S1’s he has seen since my Sport160 went to him last year, let alone for an original S1 Exige and I am sure he would be happy to discuss this on the phone if you wish. I am only selling due to lack of storage space and the fact I don’t plan to use it again until July 2018.
Looking to get £55,000
