Nice car! I don't think those shoulder belts going beneath the head rest would work for me but it's got an ashtray!!! The list of things that don't work is a bit disconcerting - not that they would necessarily require a lot of work to fix but just that they should have been taken care of. It will be interesting to see what she will bring in Australia.

They should stop calling it an Elan and start calling it a Europa, though!!

Europa owners handbook in the photos should be a clue it is not an Elan.

Looks like a bag tank in the front. Too much weight on the plenum chamber jammed by throttle open many years ago.

The TOW on the back and the seatbelts  indicates it has been used for competition.

I don't like the painted bumpers or the dashboard, but the originals are included.
