Cor, gorgeous brown! Classic Cars suggests £4k for a minter.

What it's worth? **Hunts around.. Finds 87p, half a pack of paracetamol, some superglue & a pack of cigarettes..**
**Resigns self to not owning an Elite any time soon**
Looks very clean - more pics definately good!

Oh, that is cool (both the original Elite and the "Pure Lotus" poster).
Brown is the new everything else, but don't tell too many people or they'll all want it.
