2018 Lotus Elise 1.8L Petrol · RUY 2

This 2018 Lotus Elise presents an exceptionally clean MOT history, having passed every inspection since its first test with zero recorded defects or advisories. The vehicle has covered only 25,451 miles over eight years, which is significantly below the typical annual average. This suggests the car has been treated as a weekend or fair-weather vehicle rather than a daily commuter. The consistency of the MOT results indicates a stable and well-maintained condition. There is no evidence of a worsening trend, as the vehicle has maintained a perfect record throughout its documented history. The lack of even minor advisories suggests that the previous owners have likely addressed maintenance proactively rather than waiting for annual inspections to identify issues. While the low mileage is generally a positive indicator of limited wear on the engine and drivetrain, it can also suggest long periods of inactivity. Vehicles that sit for extended durations can sometimes suffer from seized brake components, perished rubber seals, or degraded fluids. Because the car has only covered roughly 200 miles between the 2025 and 2026 tests, it is clear that the car has seen very little use in the most recent year. The primary risk with this specific vehicle is not necessarily heavy wear, but rather the potential for age-related deterioration of rubber components and fluids due to infrequent use.
