- The Elan +2S combined Lotus' celebrated lightweight construction, twin-cam performance and engaging handling with the additional practicality of occasional rear seats, creating one of the marque's most versatile classic grand tourers
- First registered on 01/04/1970 and finished in Burgundy, having previously been Blue, with the bodywork refreshed and repainted in its existing colour in June 2016, when new badges were also fitted
- Considerable mechanical attention during that ownership included cylinder head rebuilds in 1996 and 2009, both accompanied by timing chain replacements, together with renewed main and big-end bearing shells, oil pump, fuel hoses and work involving the crankshaft, flywheel and clutch assemblies
- Indicating 76,139 miles at the time of cataloguing, with five former registered keepers. Accompanied by a history file containing earlier documentation, MOT records, invoices for mechanical and bodywork expenditure, and a detailed spreadsheet maintained by the previous owner recording servicing, repairs and improvements throughout his ownership
