Tell us about your Elise?

My daughter bought this in 2010 and I then bought it from her in 2016.

Nigel Wilson

End of era. I worked on the Elise project as a supplier. I have had an Excel since 2003, too.

Anthony Donnelly

I’ve owned Elises, Elans and Esprits, while now I have an Evora. I suppose they can’t stand still or they will be left behind. Still a sad day though.

Steve Murnane

Been hooked on Lotus since my childhood – Mrs Peel’s Elan saw to that! It was love at first sight when the S1 Elise was launched! It’s sheer, pure unadulterated fun on four wheels. I really doubt there will ever be another light Lotus that makes its driver so connected with the road.

Dimitri Urbain

My ’99 Elise and ’83 Turbo Esprit here. Elise is about to hit 275,000 miles!

Iain Ogilvie

Three Elises. A 111R, a 220 supercharged and a supercharged club racer I still have. All the sports car that you’ll ever need!

Simon Holmes

My Exige S2. It is definitely a future classic.

Mark Brooks

I worked at Lotus when the Elise was launched. These days I own an Excel SE.
