Mate of mine collects odd cars and for about 7 years he had a Europa in his front garden.
he paid around £900 for it with a knacked engine (amongst other things)
never found the parts for the right price so stuffed it on e bay recently
When I tell you he is Welsh, you will understand his utter disbelief when it sold (and was paid for) at £7000
is this the right price or am I missing something ?

Depends whether it was one of the Twin Cam engined versions.
If it was, then fully and properly restored it will be worth upwards of £20K and the Japanese go mad for them (they're more popular and valuable in Japan than an Elan Sprint, even), so it would be a viable and potentially profitable project.
If it was one of the Renault engined versions, then someone has paid way too much for a restoration.
It's the wrong type of Europa for this forum though - you should have posted in the 'General Lotus Stuff' forum, really.
