It’s with a touch of nostalgia that I’m offering up a collection of original parts from my beloved 1999 Lotus Elise 111S (S1). Owning this car in England was a dream come true, and while life has moved on, I’ve held onto these components with the hope that they might one day contribute to another Elise project. Now, it’s time to pass them on to someone who can put these genuine Lotus Elise Car Parts to good use.
For sale is a package of original components, carefully removed and stored from my UK-spec S1 Elise. These are not aftermarket imitations but the real deal, offering the authentic Lotus quality and fitment that enthusiasts appreciate. Ideally, I’d prefer to sell everything together to save on time and logistics, but I’m open to discussing splitting the package if you can coordinate with other interested parties.
Here’s a list of the lotus elise car parts included in this offering:
-
Original Steering Wheel: Removed from the car almost immediately after purchase, this steering wheel has only about 5,000 miles of use. It’s in excellent condition, a testament to its minimal use before being replaced with a quick-release alternative.
-
Official Lotus Elise Parts and Service Books (Hardcopy): These are the genuine article – the official Lotus Elise PARTS and SERVICE manuals in hardcopy format. Essential for any owner looking to maintain or restore their S1 Elise, these books are invaluable resources for part numbers, diagrams, and service procedures.
-
Original Elise Alpine Speakers: Upgraded shortly after purchasing the car, these original Alpine speakers are in perfect working order. If you’re looking to restore your Elise to its original factory specification, these speakers are the perfect lotus elise car parts to complete your audio setup.
-
Original Front Amber/Orange Parking Lights + Turn Signals: Replaced with smoked lenses for a different aesthetic, these original front parking lights and turn signals are in excellent condition. They include the correct amber/orange lenses as per the original S1 specification.
-
Original Lotus Body Mounting Hardware Kit: Living in the UK, I was proactive about rust prevention. I replaced all the original body mounting hardware with a stainless steel kit. This collection includes all the original bolts, washers, and fixings that were removed during that process. While used, they are all genuine lotus elise car parts.
These lotus elise car parts have been stored carefully and are in great condition, considering their age. They represent a fantastic opportunity to acquire original components for your Lotus Elise S1 project, restoration, or simply to have as spares.
I am located in Pleasanton, CA 94566 and would strongly prefer a local pickup with a cash transaction. For those further afield, I am willing to discuss shipping options, but please be aware that this will require arranging packing materials and calculating shipping costs. Payment for shipped items would be accepted via PayPal or Zelle only.
If you have any questions about these lotus elise car parts, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I’m happy to provide further details and hopefully find a new home for these pieces of Lotus history.
