Description
Colin Chapman's USP was to build cars that handled like no other... not necessarily through horse-power, but by stealth and built-in lightness. Our devastatingly pretty late series one Elan Turbo SE looks stunning in period Lotus Aqua Blue and has been enthusiast owned from new, covering a mere 55, 000 miles over the last 27 years. She is in superb condition throughout and has an unmarked charcoal grey, part leather sports interior with electric windows, mirrors and central locking. Her record of history is impeccable with a lever arch file chronologically ordered from day one, a fully stamped Service book and all original handbooks. You could dine off her engine bay and boot area, with the latter still containing a full Lotus tool kit and period First Aid kit! She drives beautifully with unsurpassed handling and particularly lively turbo charged power delivery. All maintenance schedules have been fastidiously adhered to, including Cambelt replacement. Her increasing rarity and pure driving pleasure ensure a shrewd future investment.
