History

Presented at the Earl's Court show in 1962, the Elan marked Lotus' first real commercial success. Designed around an ultra-rigid beam chassis, the car was featherweight and, when it came out, was powered by a robust 1600cc Ford Kent engine. This enabled the little roadster to offer first-rate performance, whether on the racetrack or in historic rallies (Tour Auto, Monte Carlo, etc.).

This car was first registered in May 1969. The car has been in the hands of its current owner since 1993.

Conditions

Exterior:
The bodywork is in good condition. The red, white and gold paintwork is in the colours of Lotus' historic sponsor, Gold Leaf. The wheels and bumpers are in good condition. This car was signed by Romain Grosjean, then Lotus driver, during a drivers' parade at Spa-Francorchamps.

Interior:
The interior is well preserved. The leatherette seats are in good condition and the instruments are functional. This car is right-hand drive. It is fitted with a black soft top and tonneau cover.

Mechanicals:
The vehicle is in excellent mechanical condition. The chassis has been galvanised. The engine has a "big valve" cylinder head and twin Dellorto carburettors. The exhaust is stainless steel, and the axle ratio has been modified.
