Superb performance on this car. 165bhp when original now almost 75bhp more that bring a 0-100km time in just under 5sec and a top speed of around 170mph.

This is a perfect car for everyday use, quite comfortable to drive and it looks really nice on the road. Best of all is that it is a roadster so under hot conditions you can just pop the roof down and enjoy the wind.

Overall the handling of this car is what makes it a TRUE Lotus car. Every corner seems as a new challenge and although this car is a FWD it is said to be one of the best handling cars ever produced, since the low centre weight and suspension is tuned to provide stability in speeds that only a Lotus car can provide when cornering.

This is one of the finest examples of Elan SE's and I am planning to save it as a classic. This one is one of the rarest RHD's as it has A/C which very few others do.

I've always liked these unappreciated cars. I guess thats why I got a Sky. The right hand drive just makes it more unique.

Very 007! Do you catch crazy looks driving on the wrong side of the car?
