... Few days before christmas, a straight cut gearbox, and a pair of rear calipers, complete with park brake.
But 'll have to wait 2025+ to enjoy them...

So today I tried out another of my Christmas presents on my Elan, a Kitvision Escape HD5 action camera (a much cheaper version of a Go Pro). Here is the video of my first drive, sorry for the vertical video, the sound quality and the fact it stops after 10 minutes. Not the most exciting video but Im glad I managed to get the ol' girl out for a final run before the new year.

Unfortunately no, nor the fhc (the proper elan to have :wink: )

However they do do the esprit, elise and evora plus a rather good line in British humor.
