The old Elans were pretty quick for their time. The Sprint version only had 126 BHP.......but weighed  less than an MX5. :y :y

I bet most of them weigh even less now the steel chassis has disappeared.. ;D

Yes, and the chassis disappearing is a great excuse to get one of these and drop a Zetec in. :-*
