I know a lot of people on here know of the car nicknamed 'Kermit'. Once owned by an active member on here who lavished his hard earned on it and decorated inside with the colour known as green.
Well, its been through another couple of owners i guess since then and now resides on the south coast with another black Elan.
I would say the outside condition of the car is fair, might look a bit more presentable after a good polish. It has the later style S2 wheels and hispecs front brake upgrade. The front shocks and springs have been changed at some point and maybe the later S2 lower rear wishbones too.
The intetior has stood up very well. All of the dasboard, center console, a-pillar and door cards are all very good condition. The seats really are in great condition, only one small scuff on the drivers bolster which i'm sure can be touched up with some colour dye. They are very comfy too, a lot more than my current seats but they are 20 years old.
She drives well and pulls hard, sounds noiser than my S2 although i think the exhaust is the same. Maybe the difference is just the fact it has no cat.
The hood fabric itself is water tight but the seals are all fubared.
So she lives to fight on another day.
Not sure exactly what i'm going to do with it right now but the front brakes have already gone missing and are going on my S2. The wheels are going to be refurbished shortly.
I'm not too sure if this is a minor or major project, lets hope minor !!
