Odometer – 2,200

An exceptionally rare and remarkably low-mileage Lotus Elise Series 1, this example has covered only 2,200 miles and was recently rediscovered after many years in dry storage within a private collection. The vendor informs us it has been cherished by a small group of enthusiast owners since new, with just four keepers from new. Supplied originally by HR Owen Sports Cars, this highly desirable Series 1 comes complete with its original factory tyres, stamped service booklet, and all original driver’s documentation including the Alpine CD player as fitted when new.

Factory options include metallic paint, passenger footrest, leather-trimmed seats, radio fitting kit, Thatcham One approved Cobra alarm/immobiliser, driving lamps, and a car boot tidy.

The standard dashboard proudly bears the iconic ‘Elise’ logo, with crystal-clear STACK instrumentation that functions flawlessly, offering all vital information at a glance — exactly as you would expect for a car with such low mileage. An interior that Colin Chapman himself would surely be proud of.

As Series 1 cars grow increasingly sought after, this is a truly unrepeatable opportunity to acquire one of the purest examples available.

In summary:

- Offered without reserve

- Only 2,200 miles warranted, recently rediscovered from a private collection

- Factory options include metallic paint, leather-trimmed seats, Cobra alarm, driving lamps, and more
