On offer here is an interesting Elva Courier Mk3 that was used as a road car for the majority of its life in the United States.

In 1996, it was converted to a competition car by Elva specialist Butch Gilbert and subsequently campaigned in various HSR, VARA, and SOVREN historic events.

Its current owner is a well-respected figure in the historic racing scene and this smart little Elva joined his collection a few years ago.

It's currently fitted with a race-specification 1,800cc MG B engine and a 4-speed straight-cut gearbox with limited-slip differential.

Very well presented in yellow and blue, the car is UK road registered as 295 NRT and, following some recommissioning, this attractive example could be used for a variety of historic road sports, historic rally or touring events, track days, or even for trips to the local pub.
