Nice car though
I have now read about this car's 'wrinkled chassis'(ooer) and withdraw my nice car statement.

Left over crest; tightens.

Barge and Pole come to mind.
Some poor sod will buy it though - Bids already at £8k.

This is the new 2020 business idea isn’t it?
Auction houses popping up everywhere.

How about not having a sig at all?
Re: Nice elise for sale...
Has it been in a shunt or is that how Lotus painted them?
I saw paint overspray on the A pillars inside too. Not a usual spot that gets painted...

Look how rusty that suspension is
So for those of us who haven't spent our adult lives licking Lotus chassis, other than mileage, what else is fucked on this car?
Re: Nice elise for sale...
The dent behind the seat that they mention and picture is on the aluminium tub. I'm guessing it would take a big hit to do that.
An absolute unit
Re: Nice elise for sale...
The shitty paint job but yeah the totally fucked chassis that needs replaced should pretty much cover the "Whats fucked" element
Re: Nice elise for sale...
The sill is also bent in the other photo. Mines is straight as an arrow there.
Re: Nice elise for sale...
At least these photos show it all.
Re: Nice elise for sale...
The photos are time limited by AWS I think, so I took actions into my own hands
So you're saying that bit of sill and tub aren't supposed to look like a box of tissues that's been trod on in the night?

Going to take a hefty smack on the main chassis rails to push the bulkhead panel in enough to dent it like that
Cheers, Harry
Re: Nice elise for sale...
I’ve just seen that crease behind the seat

Yep - I'd rate this as a cat B. That chassis is not repairable.integrale_evo wrote: ↑Fri Oct 30, 2020 3:49 pm Going to take a hefty smack on the main chassis rails to push the bulkhead panel in enough to dent it like that
Re: Nice elise for sale...
Being sold fully aware of the damage no doubt. Unsuspecting wouldn't spot until too late no doubt i.e. bid on pictures alone.
I didn't spot

Yeah, bury it in a 20,000 word description and put the photo at the end of 150 other photos
