This looks very much like the car that was for sale last January in Ottawa Canada, was sold to a mechanic and he subsequently sold it to someone in Europe. It is a very sound car and I was offered the car for $5000 canadian at one point by the vendor but it has registration issues that we re never sorted out and I doubt that the owner in Europe knew about it. As for pars, good luck as they are NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE  to find. Seems like everyone who touches this car has a reason to get rid of it

Hi,

i would just to confirm you that this is not the same car. This one was sold new to Austria, it has all the documents, papers to provide it. I'm leaving it because i just bought another Europa Special so at the moment i've 4 lotus Europa, two s1, one tc and a special...This is very good project, car needs only a new paint and engine rebuild. The price is obviusly negotiable but i know which is is value here in Europe and how it's difficult to find one.

Regards

Edo

Edo,

We are living parallel lives... I currently have 2 x S1A, S1B, S2, and a TCS...How do you like the S1 elise and esprit in comparison to the Europa? I am definitely on the hunt for each of those.

Also the machining.... quite an impressive operation you guys have going!
