Mica Blue MK1b

Hi Guys,

I'm a (sort of) new member, I've purchased a MK1b after years of toying with the idea.

Here she is:

Glad to have found one in such good, solid condition. 'Only' 5 owners and its been enthusiast owned for last 5 years, pulls really clean and strong and drives brilliantly - had lots of recent parts to keep it fresh.

Quick mod spec:

Lotus Elise Bucket Seats
Scorpion Exhaust w/Custom Tips
Banded 1980's Vauxhall Steelies

I have a few plans but thought I'd share it as is! Absolutely loving driving it though, every journey is an event compared to the more modern stuff I drive day to day.

It is indeed Adam's old car, he's obviously looked after it.

Sweet looking motor dude! I've always wanted a Mica Blue. One went on ebay for 500quid last week, I was very tempted!

What happened to the steels?

I like those wheels! Very nice.

Someone on here was looking for banded steel wheels a while ago...may be worth looking back to see if they want them?
