Intresting Elan on eBay at the moment selling at just over 2k, in silver but needs lots of work.

But may be an ideal opertunity for folks to pick one up for cheap if they are prepared to get their hands dirty ! 

surprised Barry Kearly has not jumped on it yet !

The “Moore” car has an S4 manifold fitted and S4 turbo. So much more reliable and bit more boost

That does look lovely :wub: If you're using an S4 manifold and turbo, what sort of exhaust are you using?

I'm thinkIng ahead for when my original manifold goes.

Going to manufacture a system as on my last S4. I will use a st/ Steel 2.5 inch system with twin exit on the right as I want to look original
