Just bought a series 1 SE after 5 years thinking about it and the first job is the cam belt. No big deal in itself but the relevant video is saving me quite a bit of hassle. I am sure that I will be referring to more in the series in the near future, I want to applaud Toby for his dedication to the M100 and producing clear and concise videos without a trace of bull. This car has remained in the shadows due to ignorance of the so called motoring cognoscenti but that is all the better for its devotees. Well done sir.
Make sure you learn about what they are and what they aren't and that you are ok with it. Most will not tell you that they are much closer to a Geo than a Lotus. Some don't care, but for me, I had to sell the car in less than a year because of that.
Well done sir, that's a great video for a great car. I've got an S2 myself and all your videos are really useful and interesting. Superb humour aswell, thanks ☺
Bought one back in June. Passenger window has dropped, not the butterfly clip but regulator... the gear cables are gone, it has no back window, I need to wire in a radio, but I just can't wait to get it on the road...
Hi mate, great videos!!! iv just bought build no378-800 1995 model in silver from Sydney, getting it brought over to Perth WA where i live. What would the best sites to get parts from for these cars?
My dad bought a brand new Elite 501 in 1976.It started falling apart in the first week. 😕 😕 He put his hand back in his pocket and bought a 911 Turbo which didn't fall apart.👍👍👍👍
If you disagree, instead of making snidey smart-arse remarks, why not do something positive and tell us all what you think the correct figure should be?

Hi GTRMAN, I’ve made some Elan videos if you are interested.
Greetings from south korea! We had kia elan version of m100! However we had 1.8 Kia engine under the hood.
안녕하세요! I know of it but have never seen one in the UK. Most of the parts are the same so hopefully the videos are useful.

Hi Toby. How is your Elan following your epic restoration series?
We need to get mirror glasses remanufactured!!!!
Would you buy a 160.000 km SE from 91, or a 68.000km S2 from 95 but x3 the price? Thanks
Hi Toby. Have you still got your Elan? I miss your videos. Oliver, the NA owner!
Hi are you still providing the seals
Incorrect. S2 cars came with half leather. Full was an option. Charcoal was the cheapest and then magnolia and blue were a higher cost option.
This was fantastic...thanks.
Places for parts for the élans lotus
no sound ??
It would be nice if i could hear you .
