Used Lotus Elise
The Lotus Elise is a true legend in the motoring world. Despite its small size, it’s a huge force to be reckoned with and can run rings around much larger and more expensive rivals. The Elise is known for looking great, going fast and offering unrivalled levels of grip. If you’re looking for a car that’ll plaster a silly grin all over your face every time you drive it, there’s only one real choice.
It was first made available in 1996, and while an array of generations has followed, they are all supreme when out on the road. The hallmarks of the Elise are beautiful designs, unparalleled agility and a phenomenal driving experience. This small two seat roadster is really a world beater, and not many other cars can live with it. Best of all, it’s British!
Every model of Elise looks good, although newer models are bonkers and very aggressive in design. The interior is well finished but there’s a basic amount of kit, but be under no illusions, the main attraction is the overall driving experience. For such a small car, it’s not as cramped as you’d think, although getting in and out could be a bit of a job for people with dodgy backs as it’s so low to the ground. The Elise is genuinely a nice place to be, and it’s very comfortable.
While it’s happy to sit there and be ogled at, the Lotus comes alive when it’s out on the road. The ride is firm and perfectly balanced, and you really can feel every little stone or impression in the road through the steering wheel. Responsive is an understatement, and the Elise can almost sense what you’re thinking and do it automatically. The power to weight ratio is off the charts, and this means you’ll absolutely fly but stay anchored to the road at the same time. It’s a driver’s car through and through, and not much comes close.
Compared to the autos it’s designed to compete with, and indeed walk all over, the Elise isn’t really than expensive to buy brand new. However, getting big money off is always helpful and you can make massive savings on a used Lotus Elise here at Motors.co.uk thanks to some incredible price discounts. In terms of second hand cars for sale, not many can compete with the sheer enjoyment you’ll get from this awesome British roadster.
Clearly then, the Lotus Elise is unrivalled in terms of handling, agility, value for money and the overall driving experience. It’s a mini rocket that’s easy to drive and never gives up. If ever you needed proof that good things come in small sizes, the Elise is the perfect example. It’s amazing!
