Frequently Asked Questions

EliseParts’ Loyalty Discount scheme is a much fairer way of giving something back to our loyal, regular customers.

You will need to register to have an EliseParts account before placing an order. After registration you should log in and place orders under the same account. Our website will keep a record of your purchases and automatically allocate the correct discount depending on how much you have previously ordered.

The discount you receive increases each time you reach the next level, it is only for online orders through your account as the orders and relevant discounts are automated.

Since we started the loyalty discount scheme, 50% of our 33,000 customers are between 3% and 4% and another 30% are at the top level of 5% already.

Please note that we are unable to offer discount on Lotus OE parts.

Discount Levels:

£501 - £1000 1%
£1001 - £2000 2%
£2001 - £3000 3%
£3001 - £4000 4%
Over £4000 5%

The levels are EXCLUDING VAT and Delivery Charges; discount cannot be used towards any Special Offers we are running i.e. you cannot get discount twice.

We ship orders over £250 (ex VAT and postage) to anywhere in the UK Mainland free of charge. To qualify for free delivery, orders must be made via our secure website - unfortunately, we can’t add on the difference if you’re near the £250 threshold.

** Please note that due to courier out of area surcharges, some Highland areas are excluded from our free delivery service and will incur some additional costs.

We aim to deliver within 2-3 working days on the majority of our products; if there is a likely delay we’ll contact you as soon as possible. We’ll also let you know when your package has been shipped.

Packages delivered by Parcelforce, FedEx, or Post Office Special Services will need a signature at delivery. If you miss delivery, a delivery card will be left for you to re-arrange delivery or collection. Items are usually held for seven days before being returned to EliseParts and we will need to make a charge for a re-delivery.

If your package is damaged in any way please sign for it as damaged and inspect the contents; if you are dissatisfied, refuse delivery and contact us for a replacement otherwise we cannot claim any compensation and will need to charge for the goods.
