Modification/Maintenance: The following maintenance and modifications have been performed since the current owner purchased the car in March 2023:
Suspension:

Interior:

· On Rails Engineering Double Cup Holder (mounts to factory dash and can be removed)
Misc:
· BBS RG Wheels (16x7 front – 27mm offset – 13.5 lbs; 17x8 rear – 35MM offset – 17.75 lobs)- painted good. Fit perfectly with no rubbing or spacers needed.
· GRP Front Tow Hook
· MWR Lift Point Kit (allows car to be put on a lift without fear of it falling off backwards)
· Removed sun visors (OE parts included)
· Installed InoKinetic Andy’s Plug to deactivate immobilizer and removed factory alarm (car now starts easily with key in on position and one press of the Start Engine button)
· Oil changed and new rear Bridgestone RE71RS tires installed in anticipation of sale in May 2024
· Auxillary port that allows iPhone to play music over factory Blaupunkt stereo
Known Issues:
· ABS light will come on occasionally during long drives but resets itself when the car is turned off and back on again. Likely a wheel speed sensor – never got around to taking it to a Lotus dealer to have it scanned to figure out which corner is the culprit since it doesn’t happen too often and I have yet to engage ABS since the car is so light.
· The front Starshield has several nicks and a few small tears in it and should be replaced eventually (note it does not have spiderwebbing or cracking like on some Lotus Elises- it is just 19 years old and has seen better days)
Extras:
· Original window sticker
· Owner’s Manual, Owner’s Manual Supplement, and Toyota 2ZZ-GE Engine Repair Manual
· Lotus factory Exige/Elise Repair Manual
· Weathershield Cover from InoKinetic (two months old)
· BJD Industries Hardtop Storage bag
· Two extra rolls of trim for rear diffuser
