Still searching for any M reg 74 Elites?

[SafraneV6RXE]

Does anyone have any info on any 1974 Lotus elites that either roadworthy or not?

I,ve taxed my car this week and according to the how many left site theres only 5 taxed 1974 examples.

Now i know there was a couple of N reg 74 Elites on e-bay recently that where roadworthy but are there any M reg examples?

I know of a 74 m reg. why do you ask? Is there something about the year? Good luck anyways. Liam

Hi Liam

Just interested to see how many M reg cars still survive and what might be the oldest roadworthy car.

I think Mike at Lotusbits has an M reg car

It just interests me to see how few examples still survive from the first few months of production.

Can you tell me more about the M reg you know?

It's a red 501. Sorry P reg.

You where getting my hopes up for a minute!

How many left lists 5 1974 Elites roadworthy but they could be N reg 74,i think there was 2 or 3 N reg 74 cars on E-bay this year.

Don't pay too much attention to those sites that tell you how many of a particular model still survive. They depend entirely on the exact information being entered onto the log book at registration and maintained ever since, and you'd be surprised how many are wrong.
