This must be one of the best maintained Elites in existence, with invoices totalling over 40,000, not including the re-commissioning work I have just carried out, it is testament to the love and care this Elite has been bestowed with throughout its life, 40 years old and I have no doubt it will still be going strong in another 40 years. The Elite is a 40 year old Lotus and no 40 year old classic car is perfect, I am not claiming it is concours so please don't expect a brand new car, classic car owners understand this, a select few do not.
