This car has production number 258. This gorgeous Lotus Elan of the 1st series was fully restored, the car was completed recently.

The restoration was carried out according to factory original specifications.

 A comprehensive photo report and invoices of the restoration are present. This magnificent lotus Elan is in a superb condition and the car sounds and drives perfectly!

The Lotus Elan is globally acclaimed by connoisseurs and drivers as being the best handling classic sports car for the open road.

The low weight of only 680 kilogrammes (glass fibre reinforced plastic body mounted on a central-tube chassis) combined with a powerful 105 DIN hp engine and splendid road holding have resulted in a spectacular compact sports car with a top speed of 180 km/h and an acceleration from 0-100 in 7.8 seconds; STELLAR performance in the 1960s! An iconic sport car creation initiated by Lotus director Colin Chapman and designed by Ron Hickman.

This is a very sporty, superbly handling, and very much sought-after Lotus Elan Series 1!
