Vehicle Detail
I am selling my 1991 Lotus Elan M100 convertible. I have owned the car for two years. I absolutely love these cars as they can driven regularly, they are reliable, and are pretty quick for a 4 cylinder. This is my third M100. I have put roughly 3000 miles on it in two years. This is a rare Lotus with roughly 550 sold in the states in 1991. It has a collector car registration for NJ. The turbo is strong, brakes well, clutch and gears are smooth. The car is mostly stock with the exception of a recent paint job, muffler, and rim/tire upgrade. It is driven throughout the year. Its starts up in the winter months with no problems. Interior is presentable and clean but not perfect. If you are local I encourage you to come see it in person and take it for a spin. It recently received the following: Recent service with Synthetic oil and K&N oil filter Ignition moduleCoil packs Light weight 17' Team Dynamic rims (I have a fifth rim as an extra with no rubber)Air filter conversion ( I have the stock air box which can easily be switched back) MSD plugs New radioCustom Lotus hood linerLotus floor mats Short shifter (I have the original shifter which screws back on)Car was painted Calypso Red (original color) one year agoAftermarket mufflerAll lights are in working orderFront lip spoiler Here are a few items that I wanted to address this Spring but will leave it up to the new owner: I recently cracked the left side mirror. It stays put but would need to be replacedCould use A and B pillar seals AC needs to be chargedTop is in good shape but has a small crack in the plastic window which is about an inch long The turbo, battery, and oil pressure gauge/cluster is not working...could be fuse relatedHorn doesn't work ( I have a new one) Power windows work but need adjustingI have a bin with extra parts that goes with the car. It is a driver, very presentable, but not perfect. It needs additional TLC to get it to the next level. It is taken and shown at local car shows. These cars are bullet proof and easy to drive. The stock engine is reliable and can be used as a daily driver. Parts are easy to find and not overly expensive. Feel free to call if you need additional information: 973-687-8904. Please DO NOT WASTE my time with low ball offers. I have enjoyed it for two years and looking for it to find a new home. It is being sold AS IS. It also listed locally so I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime. Thank you for your interest.
