An 'owner's guide' provides detailed information on owning and maintaining the cars in tip-top condition, and gives details of common faults and upgrades. The restoration guide gives any potential restorer the information to carry out the tasks needed to bring one of the these cars back from the dead. With anecdotes and experiences from current and previous owners of Elans and Plus 2's, along with many colour photographs the book provides a valuable insight into owning running and racing these iconic cars.

Book excerpt: The Lotus Elan was Lotus's definitive roadster. It replaced the elegant but expensive Lotus Elite and was the first car to employ the innovative Lotus steel backbone chassis. The original Elan was produced as a two-seat, open-top sportscar and hardtop coupe from 1962 to 1973. The range was extended by the addition of the 2+2-seater Plus 2 from 1967 to 1974. Lotus introduced an all-new front wheel drive Elan in 1989, the M100, which was produced until 1995. Lotus Elan studies the history and development of all the Elans and describes each model in detail. It gives technical details for all models, examines unusual conversions, and includes driving experiences from Elan owners. A complete and readable resource for all Lotus Elan owners and motoring enthusiasts who aspire to own one of these iconic British sports cars. Superbly illustrated with 250 colour photographs.Matthew Vale is a motoring author and passionate Lotus Elan enthusiast.

Book excerpt: This book is a semi-technical and semi-humorous account of the restoration of a Lotus Europa. A Lotus Europa is an old British car that was imported to the United States from about 1966 to about 1973. I had previously restored a Lotus Cortina, a Lotus Seven and several Lotus Elans. This was my first atttempt at a total body off restoration of a Lotus Europa. I kept track of my progress and/or my heartburn moments in monthly articles for our Lotus Corps car club newsletter called the Lotus Notus. I kept all the articles and now this book is the collection of those articles. I had a lot of fun restoring the car and writing the articles. I hope you enjoy the book!
