Who would’ve thought that a dining room had the best acoustics to appreciate the bark of an Elan coming to life?

Spent my youth with one of these cars, my Dad rebuilt one chassis up. It was yellow with a silver roof, beautiful car and when he had finished with it it was like new. Great memories

When I was a little girl this car knocked me out for its looks. A guy down the road had a lime green one and it looked, to me, like something that belonged racing at Brands Hatch. Btw, you have an awesome channel (subscribed).

Colin Chapman was a genius, he came up with the ground effect F1 car and now it seems ground effect is the way F1 is going for 2022, forty five years after Mario Andretti walked away with the F1 title in Chapman's car. Lightness was a big thing for him and it shows in his road cars, he said horsepower makes a car fast in a straight line but lightness makes it fast everywhere.

Currently resurrecting my late father's 71 +2s. Absolutely can not wait to get behind the wheel and enjoy it. Childhood dream of mine to do so. In the meantime videos like these will have to do!!

Why would you open on the parts bin stuff? These cars are prettier than a Miura, and both more practical and less likely to catch fire. These are the most undervalued pedigree classics out there. And you can't have mine. 🎉 Oh, and you'd get better performance if you wore a less blingy watch. Add lightness.

Lotus always used to be like a game of I-Spy, lights? mirrors?, door handles? Wasn't the Esprit steering wheel off a Marina?

Every 2+2 (and I had a 911S) is best with the rear being a carpeted shelf with luggage straps. There is space in the Lotus for a couple of decent loudspeaker boxes under the shelf.
