A really good Elan Sprint Coupe is seldom seen but here we have just such a car, finished in arguably the best colour for an Elan, full Lagoon Blue without the contrasting white lower panels. A solid colour was a £30 option when ordered new as was the case with this Elan. The car has covered 62, 000 miles from new and comes with a great history. It is faithful to its original specification in all ...

The first owner of this car took full advantage of this, ordering the car with the ultimate engine, the 390 cubic inch V8 4V carburettor engine and four speed manual transmission. It’s almost impossible to write about a ...

This completely original Italian example finished in the rare launch colour has clearly benefited from very careful ownership and ...

Indeed, it was the cover car for the July 2020 edition of Octane Magazine in which Harry completed a 2000 mile “Bond Odyssey” through the Alps ...

This is not your usual rather tired run of the mill Testarossa. It has clearly been very carefully looked after by each owner and since arriving in the UK it has been correctly maintained by Ferrari supremos Bob Houghton Ltd, indeed they sold the car to the last owner. As a result, it presents and drives beautifully with little sign of wear from its 31 years and 49, 000 kilometres of use.

A rare find, this Sprint Drophead is completely original and has covered only 15, 800 miles from new in the hands of one owner until his passing in 2019. Close examination does not disappoint, every aspect of this Elan impresses from the fine original chassis to the unmarked interior and dash to the original hood and toolkit. The panel fit is the best I have seen on an Elan and only some light paint ...

These late production cars are now regarded as the finest of their type featuring a myriad of detail changes and upgrades including a much improved interior with the most obvious change being a larger navigation system screen.

This example ...

With the owner finding the 2. 4 litre engine somewhat ‘lacking’ he embarked some years ago on an engine rebuild to correct ...
