Offered here is a rare and highly collectible 2003 Lotus Elise S2 135R — number 6 of just 100 examples produced for the UK market. Finished in factory Mica Silver, a colour exclusive to this limited-edition model, and complemented by a blue Alcantara interior, the 135R represents one of the most driver-focused and desirable variants of the Elise range.
The vendor informs us that the car has covered just 18,300 genuine miles from new and remains in superb condition throughout. Reportedly never tracked or abused, it has been kept garaged and well cared for. The vehicle was placed in dry storage from 2020 until 2025, and has recently been recommissioned and serviced in July 2025.
The vendor also advises there are no known mechanical issues, and the car is supplied with a comprehensive service history, including the original service booklet, purchase invoice, and a letter of authenticity from Lotus Cars, further verifying its provenance.
In addition to its factory specification, this example is fitted with the optional Pioneer head unit and passenger footrest, enhancing both usability and comfort.
A rare opportunity to acquire one of the most original, low-mileage examples of a limited-production Lotus that continues to rise in collectability.
