Complete new body/chassis units are no longer available вЂ“ Lotus says it has lost the jigs. If possible, check the carвЂ™s history вЂ“ and bodywork вЂ“ for signs of track-day thrashing and impact repairs.The chassis is immensely strong and bonding shouldnвЂ™t deteriorate, but the glassfibre body can get tatty and its front crumple zone takes all the impact in a crash.Underneath, check the floorpan is flat, straight and not battered by stone damage. AutocarвЂ™s editorial on the introduction of the Elise went on for three weeks as testers realised the significance of this little car, which finally gave the Caterham Seven a run for its money in driver enjoyment.How? Because the Elise combined stunning response, feel and cornering ability with a subtlety and a level of ride comfort that the Seven couldnвЂ™t match.Where an afternoon driving a Seven on great roads would leave you grinning from ear to ear but exhausted, in an Elise you could have all the fun and still be relaxed and ready for more.The Rover K-series engine and gearbox were lifted unchanged from the MGF and various Rovers, but it was somehow happier in the Elise than in any of its original hosts.With double overhead cams, 16 valves and all-aluminium construction making it very light, it was more like a race-car engine than a road-car one, and, like the Triumph Stag engine in the вЂ™70s, needed more monitoring and maintenance than lesser power units.Elise owners generally gave it the care it needed, hence problems are far less common, and it proved capable of withstanding substantial performance upgrades, too.A car that doesnвЂ™t display exceptional ride and handling for a sports car needs work (often just bushes and dampers) вЂ“ or has been modified unwisely.
