This thing is 100% magical. Simply nothing else like an Elan.

Yeah my friend’s British dad had a little green one growing up. They are nice.

Read Peter Egan’s stuff on these, it’s entertaining. Simultaneous euphoria and madness.

It’s incredibly spacious and as long as you’re not too wide. You can drive it if you’re 6'2". But it’s skinny! Bigger around the waist folks will be challenged.

Not really. It’s a nut and bolt restored car and like most of them, doesn’t have that old car smell anymore. it’s also a convertible so less smell retained?

Any time I see one of these (which unfortunately is rare & usually online) it makes me think of Peter’s old articles in R&T. Easily my favorite automotive author.

Same for me, I grew up reading Side Glances before bedtime. His writing is a gift.
