1972 LOTUS ELAN +2S 130 – BEST AVAILABLE – 900 MILES – £38,950
Sometimes an over restored stunning car comes into stock and this is no exception the best I have ever seen.
These Elans are amongst the best looking and driving affordable classics and with the appropriate upgrades also reliable.
After the success of the Elan, it was time to produce a more practical 2 plus 2 car in the Lotus range.
They managed successfully and another stunning coupe was launched late in 1967 and only a few thousand were built up to 1975.
This stunning example had a complete restoration finally completed a couple of years ago and has had a shakedown of over 1000 miles since
Restored to the highest standards using Lotus engineers and specialists ;
Galvanised chassis then powder coated
Body tub completely stripped and re gel coated then painted

Engine and gearbox rebuilt
Upgraded cv drive shafts
Stainless steel torque bars
High capacity alloy radiator
High torque starter
Large Bore stainless steel exhaust

The list of parts and expertise that has gone into the restoration is vast and she is so much better than any other Plus 2 and certainly built better than in 1973 !
On the road, she is a delight, light and nimble whilst still providing enough power to entertain in the way only Lotus does with added bonus of sensible subtle upgrades making it a more developed version of the original
