New Bonnet Gas Strut for Sale

Post by Lotus Jim »

Hello Chaps,
Having a bit of a clear out and Ebay-ing session of Lotus parts and other stuff I've accumulated over the years to help fund the renovation work on the Excel.

I have found in my box of Lotus spares a brand new bonnet gas strut. It looks like the later replacement type that is the Range Rover classic item. It is still in its wrapping and is the same as the one fitted to the Excel that I recently bought. Before putting it on Ebay I wanted to offer it to you chaps first. I'm happy to sell it for £10, which includes shipping it via second class Royal Mail delivery via a signed service (the price will increase if someone outside of the UK would like to purchase it due to the additional shipping and tax costs).

I have included a few pictures for your information.

Please let me know if you would like to know any further details.

If you would like to purchase it, please feel free to drop me a message.

No worries mate, at the moment it's mainly Lotus Elise S1 parts that Im selling, however any Excel stuff I start selling off I'll probably offer to people on here first. Ive also got a lot of non-lotus gubbins that I need to get rid of as well. It's amazing what you accumulate living somewhere for 10 years!

Hi, I'm really sorry, however I was contacted by another member yesterday morning and am currently finalising payment/shipping with them. If the deal should fall through I will let you know. Sorry for not updating this post.

However its great to hear of another Lotus Excel in the local area! I'm based in Hitchin so you are pretty close to me!
