Hi Ian,
The white SE is mine.
Your red'n looked great as you drove past and is the first Elan I have seen on the road since I got mine nearly 3 months ago now.
Do you have an aftermarket exhaust fitted, your car sounded much better than mine.
If you are local to me hopefully we can catch up.
All the best.
Andrew.

Green Elan (with top up!) on North Circular near Hangar lane yesterday. We were Custard SE with top down.
Did 110 (-ish) miles Essex-Richmond and back all with top down. Car performed well, but did get very hot in bad traffic (near Wembly) on way back. In the end I put the heater on, and that cooled it off a bit.

A black and gold one, a Pac blue one with non standard seats and a funny reddish coloured one without roll bars somewhere around the North Midlands / Lancashire.

Yep... and so to bed.
Thanks for putting up with us and good luck for tomorrow's anniversary celebrations.
And in case I forget, I've got Pinky's knob.

I saw a BRG heading South on the A1 yesterday - H327***.
Was going to have a closer look but it abruptly pulled off onto a slip-road and stopped with it's hazards on.
If you're reading this, hope everything was alright...?

On M40 early Sunday evening heading northbound just before M42 junction red Elan. I was in Silk Red S2 heading Southbound, hence no further details to identify car. Hope you had a great day. Ian

Early Sunday evening?
I saw a Calypso Elan heading west on the M4 between the A406 & M25 at about 4.45pm. Possibly the same one?
I was heading the other way in a light blue Esprit. 2 cars ahead of me was a copper Esprit.

Red SE with black wheels and Elan private plate yesterday

I had a great run down to this show with the Westfield and the Porsche parked next to me in the pic and also a TVR Tuscan , all were impressed with how quick the Elan was and bit shocked it was only a 1.6
