Anyone know this car ?

[jmracing66]

Does anyone on here know anything about this elan ? I?m looking to get a car as a road car with some sprints or racing in the future.

What?s the general opinion on the spec/build ?

Wot's the black rectangle sticking off the front?

That's for breaking the timing beam in hillclimbs

The car looks to be nicely put together from the pictures, though the devil is in the detail.

I don't know the rules for club sprints, but I believe it will need a full cage fitted for circuit racing.

If you just want it as a fast road/sprint car then it is fine as it is. I have been told it's a very fast car!

Thanks, I?m not sure of what?s been done to the suspension etc, but on the face of it it doesn?t look too bad for the money.

If I'm completely honest with you, I have worked for Paul Matty as part of a work experience course. The attention to detail they go to before a car goes on sale is unbeatable. The price of this car seems ideal seeing as it is such a fast car!
