Lovely Lotus First-Gen Elan (I think!?) A55

[Arese]

Hi Folks

I spotted a lovely Lotus yesterday, stuck in traffic on the A55 near Chester Business Park. I think it was a first generation Elan, but I'm no expert. Anyone on here?

I gave the guy a smile, but he looked at me like I'd just shat on his bonnet
