Passionate about too many things; three fabulous kids; still dedicating time and effort promoting ELVA Cars; enjoy music, waterways, steam, real ale, fun people

Anticipating some ELVA entries and certainly historic McLaren involvement too; should be an exciting Meeting … see you there?

Thanks to Michael Oritt for this
“Here's a shot of three Elvas fighting for a corner at the Jefferson 500 a few years back. I'm driving my MK IV (100-86) with Norman Berke attempting a pass on the inside and Hank Giffin following.” Frank Nichols would have enjoyed for sure!

This beauty is still available and surely will remain a race winner in the right hands … has proven to be hugely successful to date. All the details via https://t.co/aQA2p4RoHI

OOPS … Sorry but a typo; it’s MK.IV bodywork that is available but strictly for original cars not replica ‘projects’.

ELVA Mk.VIIIS, chassis 90/09, built for UK hillclimb ‘king’ Ray Terry powered by Buick V8; the last to leave the Rye workshop in January 1967, forerunner to the McLaren-Elva series. Superb!

Anyone have one of these heater units tucked away and looking for a new home? Have a Courier owner needing some warmth!

[Roger Dunbar @ElvaCars]

As most of you know ELVA had a special relationship with Sir Stirling Moss; he signed our ELVA Prints and enthusiastically wrote the Forward to the award winning ELVA book. We were much saddened when he passed and equally so at the recent loss of Lady Susie. Now together again ..

This Courier available on eBay … worth a peek at https://t.co/dU1PpkAAx4

Looks like this very early ELVA Mk.VII (chassis no. 3) is still available … maybe a ‘best offer’ could make it yours … https://t.co/3Di813tkV1
Worth a call and discussion? Maybe a pleasant surprise awaits!

[Roger Dunbar @ElvaCars]

Novitec writes: "The union of Novitec high-performance tuning and McLaren lightweight construction makes the driving experience in the Elva even more spectacular". The Novitec upgrade gives the Elva 919 bhp. Left it late to get to that special date .. jump aboard!

[Roger Dunbar @ElvaCars]

Only 37 miles on the clock; hardly enough to feel the thrill of 804bhp just over your shoulder! https://t.co/LVtrWH6prE Thanks to Bob Schmitt for spotting but be quick with any bids ..

Thanks to Mike McCarthy for spotting this one … personally I prefer the look of the McLaren Elva with a screen … quite a beauty but ownership will need a robust cheque book of course.
