Just leather in mine!

Surfex HD is very good stuff for engine bays in my experience. It can be used at various dilutions for other kinds of cleaning jobs too.

I think the missing engine cover is likely one of JMG cost cutting/weight saving changes. I bought mine new in 2015 and it didn't have one either, but a Chrome Orange S for sale from the same dealer did, so I asked if that could be put on mine instead! I'm a big fan of the Toyota engine but it's not a pretty one to look at!

Not sure if there's a UK distributor somewhere. I had a look on elise-shop for example but couldn't find them.

Best of luck! 👍

Exactly, and given the likely rarity I'd say it's an acceptable compromise

Higher mileage than what you're after. Although the ad suggests only 3 in this exact spec were made https://www.pistonheads.com/buy/listing/10633202?cId=10570148&cId=7612933&cId=8677047&cId=9692088&cId=10637829&cId=10241521&cId=10633202&cId=10295647&cId=9149459&cId=10714528&cId=10155670&cId=10529307&cId=10711144&cId=9822182&cId=9822184&cId=9822187&cId=10615053&cId=8549300&cId=10369920&cId=9522386&cId=10366791

Love Amethyst Grey! Looks smart

All dressed up with no particular place to go

Very interested to see the end result!! You've picked a great company to do the work in my opinion. Having been a customer of KDS myself for 8 years or so now, I think Kelly and the team are amongst the best detailers/painters in the world. Ah sorry! Only realised it's a joint effort at the end of the video!

Looks amazing!! What a fantastic setting!

Silver S1 Elise and a yellow Evora, maybe an S, in my neck of the woods yesterday afternoon. Nice to see 2 Lotus's in a day. A rare occurrence!

I use GTechniq I2 Tri-Clean to clean the leather and then follow that with their L1 Leather Guard which has UV Protectants in it. Both are easy to apply and don't leave any residue. I probably do this every 3-6 months depending on the level of use. Really good products in my opinion.

Just had this exact tyre and size configuration fitted on my Evora. Really impressed so far. I didn't think the initial turn in could be improved but it has! Noticed the difference within the first few corners. The steering feels slightly lighter in general too which I like. The tyre noise at speed is also markedly lower than the P-Zero Corsas that were on the car previously.
