As a new comer to Elan ownership but having grown up in the day this is great stuff!

What would be a good read on the subject?

Hey guys, Oxford models produce some Elan Plus 2's in both 1/76 scale and 1/43rd.

I have one of each to go into my lotus model collection, and they are really well made.

What the heck has that got to do with Jochen Rindt's S4??

[PC777]

If you read the whole post you should find that the original poster was looking to make a model of his car, also a few other people were making it sound that they were not aware of the +2 model as he might have been interested in making a +2 model of some of the other formula one drivers cars.

So I hope you don't mind but I thought I would just point out that models of +2's existed.

Hi all again
Meanwhile someone places fotos of Rindt?s S4, have a look what I just finished
It is a trio of Lotus used by ex-Team Lotus drivers
-The Esprit was used by Nigel Mansell during 1982-1984 seasons
-The Europa was used by Peterson during British GP 1973
_The Elan Plus+2 was used by Fittipaldi in the same event
With every transkit you can complete at least 2 cars (Elan or Europa + Esprit)
Manufacturer is Axel-r
www-axel-r.com
Includes reg.plates and complete JPS livery
I just hope you like

P.D: my previous knickname here was "clarko1230" (who started this thread) but due wit problems while log in process I was forced to join again

Thanks for your commitments Paul
You don?t have to be a good modeller to make them
For the Elan the best option is an Oxford Elan .You only have to paint the toof in gold as there is a black version
For the Europa you can choose between a Cararama Kyosho or Spark (depending the money you want to spend)
For the Esprit the AutoArt is the best option (paint interior in red as the real thing)
Now I am involved in the Rindt?s Elan S4...let?s see
