2005 Lotus Elise
The Build
Disguised as a traffic cone, this Chrome Orange Elise benefits from a number of worthy upgrades to sharpen things up. A lightweight flywheel has been fitted to reduce parasitic losses and let the motor rev up more freely, and a BOE exhaust creates a more exciting soundtrack while reducing pumping losses. The front clam was was replaced due to a dreaded parallel parking accident, although it does not appear on the Carfax. Sale also includes stock steering wheel with airbag.

Car history report
Reported accidents are collisions that have been recorded by Carfax and AutoCheck through police reports or insurance claims.
Accidents usually aren’t deal-breakers, but they can affect the condition and value of the vehicle. We always recommend Carfax and AutoCheck reports followed by a pre-purchase inspection (PPI) - even if there are no accidents listed as some accidents go unreported.
