The Lotus Elise 111R was introduced in 2004 building on the success of the 111S, but most notably featuring the introduction of the 2ZZ 1.8 litre Toyota VVTL-I engine. A significant upgrade over the K-Series Rover engine previously used.
This new engine produced 189bhp giving a 0-60mph time of 4.9 seconds. The power was driven through a 6-speed gearbox and the car also featured servo-assisted braking with ABS, a first for the Elise model. Standard equipment for the 111R included a half-leather interior, sun visors, central door locking and a Blaupunkt stereo with front and rear speakers.
This particular car was sold new in June 2004 by Bell & Colvill. Having covered 22,350 miles with just three owners since 2004, this car is wonderfully presented.
Finished in the elegant colour of Bordeaux Red (B95) with a complimenting tan leather interior, this Elise stands out from the crowd. A black soft top completed the exterior styling. Specified with the Touring Pack, bringing additional specification to the car including auxiliary front driving lights, soft-top with sound and thermal insulation, electric windows, an upgraded Blaupunkt stereo, interior storage net, sound insulation and a carpet set with a lightweight aluminium passenger foot rest.
Presented with a comprehensive and detailed history file, the car features an extensive service history documenting the mileage. Every service invoice and MOT certificate remain present within the history file.
Having been inspected and prepared by our team, the wheels have been refurbished and new tyres fitted. With a fresh service to be completed upon sale, this 111R Touring is ready for a new enthusiast to continue its journey. The car will also come with a comprehensive 12-month warranty.
