To prevent problems with the original plastic dipstick fracturing and ending up in the sump, potentially wrecking the engine, I designed and tested these plugs, the idea being that you fit this in place of the plastic stick, (which you keep on board for checking the oil level) then run at whatever revs. without any worries! As a bonus it adds a bit of bling to the engine bay! They're fitted with 3 viton 'O' rings, the handle being secured with a titanium screw. Delivery is to U/K only

S2 Elise front uprights.
Pair of Elise front uprights, from my 2001 S2, they have been bead blasted and triple powder coated, for the rebuild of my car.
They'd had new bearings fitted, but the car wasn't driven out of the workshop before they were dismantled and replaced with a pair of Gaz's CNC machined ally ones.
There are a few small places where the paint has come off during assembly and subsequent dismantling, which you can see if you zoom in, nothing drastic though!
Delivery will be at cost with Paisley Freight, as they're the cheapest for heavy items.
Lotus Elise S1 2000 (W) Perfect Project Car
2 Owners from new
I’ve owned my Elise since June 2013, buying it from her first owner after a long search to find one in perfect mechanical condition and with a good service history. Unfortunately I just haven’t used it as much as I’d hoped, covering only 2,500 miles in 12 years, and only 300 miles in the last 5 years. I keep hoping I’ll have the time, but have to recognise I won’t, and it sits forlorn in the garage. I was lucky to get a Civic Type R allocation at the start of 2023, and that has been the fun car of choice (3 kids mean that back seats are important…), so the Elise is just never driven.
Completely original apart from the Bell & Colvill Sports Exhaust and the EPTuning Carbon Air intake. She had all the extra boxes ticked when new - metallic paint, leather seats, stereo system, driving lamps, luggage nets, carpets.
The perfect project Elise in a very honest condition - I haven’t prepped the car for sale beyond a simple wash and vacuu…
Genuine Lotus S1 Elise/Exige/340R Motorsport Steering Wheel Quick Release Assembly
Originally sold by Lotus for use with their Motorsport steering wheel option (which was produced by MOMO), this quick release is compatible with various steering wheels featuring a 6 x 70mm PCD (such as MOMO, OMP, and Sparco).
It’s a straightforward job to replace the standard Nardi wheel with this QR; it attaches to the original splined hub using the original fixings. I can supply a copy of the Lotus instructions.
As can be seen in the photos, it is in excellent as-new condition - the MOMO steering wheel to quick release spacer, 15mm quick release to hub spacer, and all of the screws, are in fact brand new. In addition, there is no play in the mechanism.
The barrel/keys are absent.
The price includes Royal Mail Tracked 48 postage within the UK, although I’m happy to post worldwide at additional cost.
Elise S1 VICTORY wheels
One set of genuine Lotus Victory alloy wheels from a year 2000 Sport 160 Elise S1, these are staggered sizes/widths in 15" fronts and 16" rears in standard 95.25 PCD fitment. The wheels are totally unmarked and 'like new' as they have just been fully refurbished this week by City Wheels of Birmingham. They come complete with correct decal Lotus stickers and green/yellow centre caps.
I can only see one other set for sale at the moment and they are over £2k.
Carbon Fibre Gear Knob
Carbon fibre gear knob to fit any K Series engined cars, I import them from the 'States and machine a hex bronze insert for them to fit the stock M12 x 1.25 thread that's an M10 x 1.5 thread to fit the gear lever. The extra weight (160g) of this compared with an ally one also helps with the shift. Unfortunately the pics don't do them justice, the carbon weave is perfect and has to be seen to be believed!
