Lotus Excel SE, 1985,Red (now with photos)

Post by ATKRUZ »

This is a sale for a LOTUS EXCEL S.E. and is a 1986 model (though purchased originally at the end of 1985).
£3,250 Ono and I live in North Wales.

I have had this car for over three years and driven around Britain, generally for fun/commuting but also to Club Lotus events, and across to France (for the Classic 24hrs Le Mans (highly recommended)). It is a very usable everyday classic car that has always started on the button. It is not concourse condition but it is very presentable with bright red paintwork and half leather honey beige interior. Its always had good use and maintenance and not stuck in a garage for years on end. The roof lining was replaced by
the previous owner.

This car is 26 years old but it has a fiberglass body and a galvanized chassis and hence still looks fresh.

The 2.2 litre HC Lotus twin cam engine has a stainless steel exhaust and manifold and sounds wonderful!
 

In my tenure
All belts replaced (recent)
Recent oil cooler
New clutch & slave cylinder
Replaced fuel tank & rear offside brake caliper
Replaced starter motor for reduction gear type
It has a reconditioned water pump
Track rod ends
Good tyres all round
Lots of history, bill receipts, photos and old MOT certificates.
Genuine reason for sale
Road tax until August 2012 and MOT expire in March 2013
98,000 miles

Note: The top corner of the drivers seat has a small split in the leather.
Drivers door window frame could do with replacing (replacement supplied with the car)

VIEWING IS RECOMMENDED! -

Everything works and she's ready to drive away. Comes with the private plate
