Hello to everybody! i am new on this forum. My name is pierre,i live in south of france and i am retired.My Lotus is a S3 Elan That i own since 9 years.I have also a AH Sprite since...42 years and a french Panhard PL17. My interest is mechanic and my other hobby is competition control-line model airplanes since 50 years.I bought the Elan in poor condition...but poor "only" for the body, the assembly, electrical etc;;; Engine and gearbox , all the driving train were perfect; It has Spyder front and rear wishbones. I have found a 3,55 final drive, new(really) on ebay. Very nice car! Not for sale, sorry! frienly! Pierre

Hello Pierre
Welcome to the forum.
As already mentioned there are quite a few Elan owners in France and on this forum.
Co incidentally I recently supplied some parts for an Elan that's being rebuilt and then shipped to South of France.
So watch out there is another Elan heading your way.
Regards
Clive

Welcome Pierre. You will find this group very helpful. Soon those imperfect aspects of your S3 will be perfect. Regards, Dan
