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 ads a bit of bling to the engine bay!

They're fitted with 3 viton 'O' rings, the handle being secured with a titanium screw.

Looking for a decent set of Bilstein coilovers for my 1997 Elise s1 Also adaption brackets if possible, thanks

I am sure some on this group will know me, Andrew Goater, regarding PG1 gearbox building. Over the last 10 or more years, I have supplied numerous B4BP close ratio gearboxes for Lotus cars on this group.

For racing the B4BP is too long gears. In a similar way that Lotus have their own UCR gear in the 340R cars, I have had custom made a 3 gear (6 sprocket) kit which uses the original C ratio gears 1 and 2 but a very close ratio 3, 4 and 5. The intention is you only use 1st gear off the line and 2 to 5 are very close. It fits a C6BP 3.9 final drive box and on 16" wheels gives a top speed of 125mph. If you use bigger wheels or your engine revs more than 7500rpm a 4.2 final drive can be used.

The gears are helical and are the same tooth design as the original gears. So, unlike using straight cut, these are quiet.

3rd, 1.47. 4th, 1.222, 5th, 1.034.

At 70mph (113kph) the rpm's are at 4500 in top gear. This does mean it's very fast to accelerate at this …

Carbon fibre gear knob to fit any K Series engined cars, I didn't make the carbon, but I've turned a bronze insert for them with an M10 x 1.5 thread to fit the gear lever.

I have a few available, insured delivery would be £8.00

The extra weight (160g) of this compared with an ally one also helps with the shift.

Unfortunately the pics don't do it justice, the carbon weave is pefect and has to be seen to be believed!

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…

Screen vent panel that i had carbon wrapped, in very good condition, now I've replaced it with a carbon fibre one. Ideally collect, but will deliver at cost, to U/K only

A pair of lenses that i bought from Junks a while ago, when he was still making them. I had intended to fit them over my carbon headlight brackets, but when they were offered up on the car, you couldn't really see the carbon brackets, so I've decided to run the car in true Chapman style of adding lightness by leaving them off! Hence I'm offering them for sale, as everyone knows they're no longer available from Lotus. Delivery is to U/K only as customs paperwork has become too much hassle now.

Polished ally gear knob, good used condition, bought new from EP and run on my car before switching to one of the carbon ones. Note postage applies to U/K only, will not post abroad as customs paperwork is too much hassle with recent changes.

Excellent condition and will pass noise testing everywhere with lovely sound. Bargain. I live near Exeter or could bring to any British or Midland Hill climb event
