How bad do you want it? Here's a "remanufactured" tool kit including the roll that claims (and seems) to be "concours ready": https://www.ebay.com/itm/Lotus-Elan-Europa-Tool-Roll-Concours-Ready/302541137258?hash=item4670db656a:g:6FIAAOSwcXVZ6RTT&vxp=mtr

I picked up my S2 Europa from the factory in 1970. Don't remember getting a tool roll, only the jack.

This is a cool catalog that includes vintage type tools and tool rolls. They aren't the same as the original Europa tool kit, which if you're interested in originality, that's what you'd have to have, but they are nicer. Check page 35 of this: https://www.angloparts.com/pdf_catalogues/Tools_accessories_catalogue.pdf. There are a lot of other things in it you might find interesting.

Many thanks for posting this link Mr. BDA. I just spent a good couple hours pouring through a wonderful range of British car goodies. Great catalogue.

Now that is interesting. I bought my car from the original owner and his widow passed over all sorts of stuff including the original steering wheel (11" Astrali was fitted) but no tool roll, just a jack in it's original bag which incidentally isn't the one in the parts manual but definitely came with the car.   I'd assumed the tools had been lost and as they're pretty poor anyway I wasn't bothered about it, but perhaps like yourself they were never supplied ?

It wouldn't surprise me, my Elise was presented to me without any logos on 2 of the dash switches, just holes where they should have been. Fixed at first service.....  none in stock when the car came off the line !  (one of the best excuses I've heard yet)
