    What a car! Sounds lovely too. Can't beat that pure driver engagement they offer.

    Thinking about buying one of these in the future. The older I get the more I enjoy handling. I'm dying to test drive one.

    Lotus Elise/Exige are modern classics already.
    These are in a class of their own, and there will be no new ones built from Lotus.
    Therefore I think these cars will keep their value or increase in value in the future.

    • @DWI_Community
      @DWI_Community  2 года назад

      Yes completely agree. Values of these in the UK has been shooting up already. Very collectable already... Rightly so given the driving experience

      I bought my Elise for 16.5k a few years ago and It's now worth more like 20k, that is a high miliage one too. They are going up quickly and less people are selling them now. Everyone wants one before we have to go electric because you'll never get another car like this.
