Lotus 2017 Elise

Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

  • On the road

    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Street legal go-kart.

    Performance

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Lack of top speed is not an issue. MX5"s could beat me whilst running in (limited to 60mph) but the tables are turned when bends and roundabouts come into play.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    5 out of 5 5.0

    No problems in first three months of ownership.

    Image

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Based on yells of "Nice car mate" and "Phoaar", pretty good.

    Comfort

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Better than the old one, but hardly the lap of luxury.

  • Security and Service

    Service

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Subject to significant delays. Not helped by exceptionally poor service from the garage. If I buy another Lotus (possible), it will not be from the same dealer.
