Don't follow the prices closely, but it's around what I thought a +2 went for and in the middle of the other two +2s for sale.

I bought my lotus from them. Can't recommend them enough. Excellent to deal with and 1st class in house 12month warranty(paid for me to replace my rad for a proalloy one on my own. No questions asked). Shipped the car to me on a transporter and carted off my px.

Looks like a lot of car for the money :thumbsup and in superb condition.
Don't know if its just that we all get used to big wheels but the wheels on it do look small and a bit lost in the arches :?
