1988 lotus excel Red for sale

Post by scrappyloz »

Welcome to the sale of my 1988 Lotus Excel. I have had the car for three years and I have spent a fortune getting it to its current condition. The car drives spot on and is Mot’d till May next year. Below is a list of the work and parts carried out.
Good Points
• Mot till May 2012 (no advisories)
• 70000 miles
• 2.2 Lotus twin cam on twin 40’s
• Facelift version
• Over 2500 spent getting the car to mechanically perfect in the past 2 years
• Brand new stainless steel flexi brake hoses
• New brake copper lines
• All four callipers stripped and rebuilt
• New brake pads all round
• New disks all round
• 5 Brand new tyres
• Various bushes replaced
• Various hoses replaced
• New Alternator Belt
• New speedo cable
• Full exhaust system 3 years ago (looks like new, very expensive)
• Body attachments replace with galvanized steel ones
• Carburettors cleaned and fully balanced 3 months ago
• Front Fog lights
• Electric mirrors
• Electric windows
• Power steering
• I have the v5
• Spare key
• Hpi clear
Bad Points
• No Tax
• Like most Lotus’s the interior is tired. I would recommend either replacing it with another (200-400) or just fit a set of bucket seats. It is usable as it is.
• The car was re-sprayed around 4 years ago but there are age related marks. On the front bumper and bonnet there is weld splatter. A good t-cut and mop will remove this. There is also a small paint chip on the front bumper
• Front windscreen is white round the edges. (does not affect driving or Mot at all)
• Front side windows are scratched on the edges
• Electric windows are temperamental
• Wing mirror covers are tatty
