About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

SE-badged to reflect the uprated engine. Repainted assembled with a few small flaws and some masking issues. Four inch paint crack just above the front bumper. The doors hang out at the bottom. Good interior and top. A sound and attractive driver.

Market commentary

The bidders weren't moved by the extra 20hp as much as this lightweight, crisp-handling Elan will be on the road giving the new owner extra performance in a largely original car for no premium at all. It's a sound value for a driving-oriented new owner.
