I used to have one and I still miss it.

Just made a trip from Switzerland through France to the Scotish Highlands and back with my Elan +2 130/5, was driving 4000 km without any issue! Well maintained, these cars are truly reliable - and fast. And they consume not much, on average about 8 Liter on 100 km. Great video!

I'm currently thinking of buying one, and just cannot understand why these cars are not commanding 10k-15k more like some of their counterparts. I was thinking of an S130/4 as I heard the 5 speed gearboxes are hard and exspensive to get fixed. Appreciate the 5 speed is more relaxing on A&M roads, Any advice there, or other advice about buying?

This channel is absolutely fantastic I love your editing and music choices, and the history with accompanying images and footage is something often neglected in reviews of classic cars

I'm glad you did!

Awesome video! Only thing that would have improved is that I would have loved a section without the music and commentary and just hearing that sweet twin cam sing!

I will keep that in mind for future films!

My bucket list Lotus is the 23B... I own a '67 Europa S1 and would love an Elan +2!

I had one brand new in 1973....I liked it but preferred my Lotus Europa John Player Special
