1966 Lotus Elan Series 2

Transmission: Manual
Colour: Yellow
Mileage: 40101miles on the clock
Paperwork up to date.


On offer is a series 2 Lotus Elan presented in yellow with black leather interior. With only a handful of these roadster models manufactured in the early '60s and the manufacture did not have racing in mind when they designed this car, even though it only weighs in at 650kg with the mild steel backbone and fiberglass body. Soon Lotus owners assumed that it should belong on the track, however it was not suited for the track. Lotus resisted in modifying the car for racing and at a later stage Lotus designed the Elan race model.

The vehicle in question has undergone a body off restoration by a very well known restoration shop in Cape Town a few years ago and this car has the most impressive history file that can be presented on request. The 1600cc twin cam engine has been rebuild and runs very well. This stunning little car drives really well and will fit in many collections and certainly will turn heads where ever you go.

Feel free to contact us if you are interested.


Location: Muizenberg, Cape Town, South Africa
