Presented at the Earl's Court Motor Show in 1962, the Elan was Lotus' first commercial success. The car was designed around an ultra-rigid beam chassis, was lightweight and was powered by a robust 1600cc Ford Kent engine when it was launched. All of which enabled this little roadster to put in first-class performances on the racetrack or in historic rallies (Tour auto, Monte Carlo, etc).

Our example is a Lotus Elan S4 that left the factory in 1969. This car was owned by real enthusiasts who improved its looks. The wings were widened, giving the roadster a chunky, sporty appearance, and the whole car was repainted in the same colours as the Lotus Elan Big Valve.
