History of Lotus Marques
The origins of Lotus Marques can be traced back to the UK where the humble beginnings evolved into the business that was finally established in Australia during 1992.
Living and owning Lotus vehicles in the UK has proven to be a valuable experience when dealing with specialist suppliers and component manufacturers.
This local knowledge provides an unparalleled foundation that allows Lotus Marques to supply an extensive range of spare parts for our customers.
Making experience count
30 years of experience in the UK dealing with various parts manufacturers and suppliers enables a "one stop shop" solution to be offered to Lotus owners.
Regardless of what Lotus spare parts you require, it is possible to utilise an extensive network of trusted suppliers to service your needs.
Quality spare parts
Lotus Marques has a relationship with around 250 suppliers who consistently demonstrate they only supply quality parts.
We have a policy of only supplying the best quality parts to our valued customers.
Wherever possible we prefer to supply components manufactured to contemporary standards (ISO9002) utilising the latest state-of-the-art technology.
This often involves importing special components from key manufacturers who have a clear understanding of our business needs.
Our objective is to supply product that fits correctly and provides assurance plus reliability.
Thirty years of experience have shown that not all replacement parts are of equal quality and manufactured to the same standards.
Its fine to fit alternative spare parts providing you carry the necessary research and satisfy yourself you have a quality replacement that is not going to compromise your Lotus vehicle.
NOTE CAREFULLY - Not all after-market parts are identical or the same quality.
Spare parts philosophy
When it comes to supplying alternative spare parts, Lotus Marques has a simple philosophy which is as follows
The spare parts Lotus Marques supply must be equal or better quality than supplied by the Lotus Factory
The spare parts must fit first time and not require any modification
The spare parts must perform the function they were designed to do and provide a reasonable service life
All new spare parts come with a full manufacturer’s warranty
Lotus Marques will not knowingly source and supply any product that is not backed by a guarantee or warranty.
Quality parts are provided from our significant stock holding and are priced accordingly.
Purchasing wisdom
The following Words of Wisdom are provided by John Ruskin (1819 - 1900)
It's unwise to pay too much, but it's unwise to pay too little.
When you pay too much you lose a little money, that is all.
When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything,
because the thing you bought was incapable of doing the thing you bought it to do.
The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot.
It can't be done.
If you deal with the lowest bidder, it's well to add something for the risk you run.
And if you do that, you will have enough to pay for something better.........
Product Guarantee
If in the unlikely event you have to return faulty product, you can either exchange the item or have your money refunded.
This guarantee provides peace of mind to all our valued customers.
Lotus Marques stands behind all our products and if you require after-sales service and support, then an experienced member of staff is only a phone call away.
Genuine Lotus spare parts
If you own a Turbo Esprit or an Elise or any other Lotus vehicle and you are looking for genuine Lotus spare parts, then you have come to the right place.
We can supply genuine spare parts from the Lotus Factory located in the UK.
If the part you require is not available form our stock, then it can usually be obtained fairly quickly as we usually air-freight all our parts from the UK.

This quotation will usually provide a fixed price that takes into account the currency exchange rate and all freight charges etc.

Lotus Marques manufactured spare parts
Lotus Marques specialises in manufacturing rare, obsolete, custom parts and performance components suitable for a wide range of Lotus vehicles.
It is only possible to manufacture these high quality components by having the necessary experience and appropriate resources.
Second hand Lotus spare parts
Are you looking for a component that is obsolete and proving difficult to find?
Then contact Lotus Marques and we would be pleased to locate what you are looking for.
We will also provide "a qualified inspection" to ensure the spare part is in serviceable condition prior to shipping.
There is absolutely no point in shipping parts half way around the world only to discover they are expensive scrap.
Whilst various web sites offer the promise of cheap parts, too often we see individuals who have parted with their hard earned money and receive parts that are unfit for use.
There are also incidents of parts being advertised, payment being made and the ordered parts never being received.
With the extensive network of qualified suppliers at our disposal, Lotus Marques offers a 3 month limited warranty on any of the second hand parts we supply.
We can also arrange to drop ship parts to you and save double handling expenses.
