With all-new models still a way off, Lotus has introduced a limited edition Elise and created new trim and mechanical packs for the Elise and Exige. The be-striped Elise limited edition (199 worldwide, 100 of those for the UK) is called the Sports Racer and comes with a blend of the new 'Sports' and 'Touring' packs that give it, amongst other things, sports suspension, switchable traction control, leather upholstery, extra soundproofing and a hardtop. The price is £31,995.
