An odd choice, swapping an Exige for a modded Elise twice the age for £0, but I freely admit I know nothing about them. If the Elise is so amazing though it does make you wonder quite why he wanted to swap.

It's lighter and faster with one of the finest reliable engines in recent years with a supercharger bolted on top, whats not to like?
 
I'll admit to knowing nothing about Elises too, but surely the Club racer is worth more? and will hold its value far better?

<3 k20 though.
 
I advertised mine for £23.5k @ 39k miles on a 57 plate, around the going rate looking at other cars. It had a set of spare wheels + tires plus all the original parts I swapped out.

The Elise is an odd one value wise, it's a Sport 190 so worth around 20K'ish if totally standard. It's had 25K of mods done but as we both know that won't be recouped in the sale price, the price of these modded cars are hard to call as it's worth what someone is willing to pay.

I've seen similar cars advertised (not 100% of what they actually sold for) for the same or more money.

The only reason he wanted to swap is that the chap was a Gulf Racing nut, ie Gulf Racing watch, coat, etc. It's a sound car as it's been serviced by a renown Lotus specialist who vouched for it etc while we had the cars inspected.

Tim, the Honda car actually hold their value better it seems.

I do like that Stag, now if you're handy with spanners I suggest a Chevvy V8 engine conversion, get rid of that sodomised Dolomite lump.
