Elan Reimagined.

 

During 2016 / 17, we brought to life a customer’s vision of a 21st Century Lotus Elan. We built him the ultimate modern road going Elan using new or completely refurbished parts. It’s a gorgeous looking, seriously quick car with great handling, great stability at speed and it’s also refined and easy to use.
