Hi
Many years ago in the late 60s I helped someone build a yellow Lotus Elan. Since then I have been hooked and have always wanted one but never managed to buy one. I was offered one in 1976 but couldn't raise the £1000 he wanted for it!!
I have now retired and am seriously looking. I'm too old, fat and arthritic to get into a "baby" Elan so I'm looking at +2s. What a joy to be looking at them after helping build one 50 odd years ago.I have refurbished a few fast fords in my days but now I'm looking at refurbished cars. What a difference in values between various cars. They are out of reach of the average person, which I am, so a rolling restoration might have to do.
I will get one!
