1968 Early Lotus Elan +2 in very good condition For Sale

For sale is my 1968 red Elan +2 owned by me for last 8 years, but now not used very much - so looking for a new owner.
The car has partial history and underwent an engine rebuild at 93000 and last year rebore and new pistons, etc. I have changed doughnut rear axles for a universal type - original is available - and replaced wishbones on front suspension as well as having carbs refurbished.
Interior is in original condition apart from replacement mats. Car has alternator and electric fuel pump as well as device to improve headlamp pop-up. Servo for brakes is fitted. Sunroof is in good condition.
There are a couple of scratch repairs but otherwise paint is in very shiny condition as pictures show. It has been resprayed but I don't have details.
More pictures/ details available on request.

A lovely example of an S1 Exige. The car is in stunning condition and as good as I've seen. I can't really claim any credit for it as it was the previous owner that went through the car to make it what it is. It's a 2000 model and was originally Silver but the last owner painted it Yulong White, ( a JLR colour seen ...
