Is it a good idea to get an Elise with this high mileage? The car looks stunning, owner seems very transparent, things like the head gasket (1.8 Rover K-Engine) have also been replaced. The car comes in british racing green with yellow racing stripes, has a Komo-Tec exhaust system. The owner is the first owner actually and the car has a complete service history at Lotus.

My question: is there anything substantial that could go wrong with such a vehicle? Rust of the body and chassis will definitely not be a problem I guess. We have a fully equipped car workshop at home, thus fixing things wont be a big deal. The owner wants 32 000€ here in Austria.
