Just spotted this ad for Elan parts available in Scotland.
Anyone here?

That looks to be a Federal LHD, so a) rare and b) many parts won't fit UK spec. Strange they don't mention it. They do mention 15" wheels whereas the USA cars were 16". I wonder who it is.

Bugger. it's been broken. I was looking for a left hooker and that one looks good but I suspect it's just a random picture. Damn you Jamie. :twisted:

Nothing, unless you're "Contact Jamie, Posting for 2+ months..." :P

this was on gumtree a few months a go when i was still looking to buy an Elan but the ad disappeared. The pic for the ad seems like they have just googled ''white lotus elan m100'' and used the first one they found.

I could do with a new wheel arch liner, and was planning on trying my luck with that breaker so i'm glad the ad's back online.

Morciii - Jeemy (N Berwick) and his pal are breaking a couple of Elan's so drop Jeemy a PM and he will probably get back to you. You might be able to pick it up on Sat/Sun if you go down to Duns as N Berwick is only just off the A1. Jeemy has a couple of lock ups at Fenton Barns

Oi! If you'd learnt how to read properly, you would know that the advert clearly says "Contact Jamie, Posting for 2+ months..." MacAffro.

Anyway, you Jocks all look^H^H^H^H sound the same to me. :smt098

Ah right!, I thought i was heading for another accusation of something i hadn't done :-D , thank goodness for that. Anyway it would break my heart to break an Elan, it would feel like some form of Vehicular murder :bonk: .
