*** ANOTHER FANTASTIC GENUINE ''GARAGE FIND'' BY DAVID BRADLEY CLASSIC & SPORTS CARS ***
A 1974 LOTUS ELAN+2 S130 FINISHED IN RARE REGENCY RED WITH A COMPLIMENTARY OATMEAL INTERIOR
THIS IS A WONDERFUL ORIGINAL/ UNMOLESTED ''GARAGE FIND'' WHICH HAS NEVER BEEN RESTORED AND IS SHOWING JUST 18, 537 MILES HAS BEEN OWNED BY THE SAME FAMILY FOR 45+ YEARS AND HAS SPENT A NUMBER OF YEARS HIDDEN AWAY UNDER COVERS INSIDE THE COACH HOUSE OF A TRULY MAGNIFICENT 14 BEDROOM GEORGIAN COUNTRY ESTATE!!
ALTHOUGH WE ENJOY DEALING WITH & APPRECIATE CONCOURS/ IMMACULATE BEAUTIFULLY RESTORED CLASSIC & SPORTS CARS WHICH ARE SOLD ACROSS THE WORLD ONE OF OUR FAVORITE PARTS OF OUR JOB IS RECIEVING A PHONE CALL ABOUT A CAR WHICH HAS NOT SEEN THE LIGHT OF DAY FOR MANY MANY YEARS AND AS SUCH WE REALLY ENJOY THE CHASE OF FINDING THESE ''GARAGE/ BARN FIND'' CARS WHICH HAVE BEEN FORGOTTEN OR HIDDEN AWAY FOR MANY MANY YEARS IN GARAGES/ BARNS IT ALWAYS AMAZES US WHERE THESE CARS TURN UP & WE MEET SOME VERY INTERESTING PEOPLE AS YOU JUST NEVER KNOW WHERE OR WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO FIND AND WHO YOU ARE GOING TO MEET AND THIS IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF FINDING A LOTUS ELAN AT A TRULY MAGNIFICENT 14 BEDROOM COUNTRY ESTATE AND THE STORY ABOUT THE ORIGINAL GENTLEMAN OWNER WHO HAD SADLY PASSED AWAY & THE FAMILY COULDN'T BEAR TO PART WITH THE CAR FOR SENTIMENTAL REASONS AND IT WAS PLACED INTO STORAGE UNDER BLANKETS ON THE ESTATE AND FORGOTTEN ABOUT FOR MANY YEARS UNTIL WE UNEARTHED THE CAR!! - WE WERE MADE VERY WELCOME BY THE FAMILY & EVEN MEMBERS OF STAFF WHO WERE SO AMAZED & INTRIGUED WHY WE WOULD BE INTERESTED IN THEIR WORDS ''THAT OLD DUSTY KNACKERED CAR FULL OF COBWEBS & SPIDERS '' & AFTER SEEING PICTURES OF THE TRANSFORMATION FROM SUCH FORGOTTEN CARS WHICH REQUIRED FULL RESTORATION WHICH WE HAD PREVIOUSLY DISCOVERED OVER THE YEARS TO THE COMPLETE TRANSFORMATION OF A FULLY RESTORED EXAMPLE BROUGHT BACK TO IT'S FORMER GLORY THEY SOON REALISED THIS LOTUS ELAN HAD A LOT OF POTENTIAL AND THEY TOLD US TALES ABOUT THE OWNER & THE CAR AS THEY COULD REMEMBER THE SOUND OF ''THE FAST SPORTS CAR'' DRIVING DOWN THE COUNTRY LANE ON THE APPROACH BACK TO THE ESTATE THEY KNEW THE OWNER WAS NEARLY HOME AND THEY PROMPTLY GOT BACK TO WORK!!!
AS CAN BE SEEN THIS LOTUS ELAN IS NOW READY AND WAITING FOR A NEW LOVING CUSTODIAN TO CARRY OUT A FULL & TOTAL NUT & BOLT RESTORATION BACK TO ITS FORMER GLORY BUT WHAT A WONDERFUL CAR & STORY WHICH MAKES IT VERY SPECIAL IN OUR OPINION!!!
A VERY RARE OPPORTUNITY TO ACQUIRE A GENUINE COMPLETE & UNRESTORED LOTUS ELAN+2 S130 WHICH IS SUCH A ''TIMEWARP UNMOLESTED SURVIVOR'' AND IS A PRIME CANDIDATE TO COMPLETE A CONCOURSE RESTORATION AS THE CAR HAS NEVER BEEN TAKEN APART AND OFFERS AN INCREASINGLY RARE OPPORTUNITY TO FIND AN UNMOLESTED EXAMPLE WITH EXCELLENT PANEL GAPS AND ALL ORIGINAL CORRECT FEATURES!!!
WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING THIS CAR ONCE THE DETAILED RESTORATION HAS BEEN COMPLETED IT WILL BE AN ABSOLUTE STUNNING MOTOR CAR IN ONE OF THE BEST & RAREST COLOUR COMBINATIONS AVAILABLE!!
