Black alloy wheels, though not standard, are in good condition, as are the tyres, with a spare wheel included in the boot. -
Interior condition
The interior is complete and in good working order. The seats show some wear and marks (see pictures), but all gauges, electric windows, and the radio function as they should. The AC is not working.
The carpets are in good condition with some signs of use, and the dashboard is intact with a few minor marks, including a missing plastic grommet and a left-side trim cover by the mirror (see pictures).
There are also some scratches on the plastic trim near the seatbelt and a small rust mark on the edge of the seat frame. -
Exterior condition
Bodywork is rust-free and undamaged, with plastic panels, good alignment, and all openings functioning smoothly. The underbody is clean and tidy. Paintwork is presentable overall, with some marks, scratches, and stone chips, particularly on the inner edges of the wheel arches. Roof is complete and in good condition, with no holes, only minor age-related scuffs. The windscreen has a few small stone chips, and there is slight surface rust on a metal mount in the boot.

Facts about the model
Engine: It was powered by a 1.6L DOHC turbocharged engine, developed by Isuzu, producing 165 horsepower in its SE Turbo variant. This allowed for impressive performance, with 0-60 mph times in just over 6 seconds.
Chassis and Handling: Lotus engineered the Elan M100 with a focus on sharp, precise handling, and its ability to grip the road is often highlighted as one of the car's strongest points. The suspension system provided a comfortable ride for a sports car while keeping excellent control in corners.
Transmission: A 5-speed manual transmission delivered power to the front wheels, marking a departure from Lotus’ usual rear-wheel-drive setup.
Interior: Inside, the car was relatively simple, with a driver-focused cockpit. While it wasn't luxurious, it did have features such as power windows, leather seats (in some models), and a manual soft top.
