Phil,

Beautiful car. Good luck with the sale. Have you considered forwarding a link to "Bring a Trailer" as well to open it up to a wider audience?

Is there a paint code on the bottom right hand corner of the VIN plate?

My Elan sold on the 2nd auction to a Lotus enthusiast in AZ.
He must be enthusiastic as the car is shipping in 48 hr.!
I'm glad its going to a good home and the price is right.
Don't worry about me missing the Elan.
I found something with similar DNA; 2005 Honda S2000.
It's the Lotus Elan v. 2.0!
Happy Motoring
Phil
