Hi from Motoring-Man and another rare lotus pic

just love the Kellogs box on the floor

great pic!!!

Well once again, you are getting old, or at least I am, and as soon as you think you know a little something, you realize you should never, ever, stop learning!!!

On a Series 1 Elan as depicted in the the photo, what determined whether the vehicle received two rear lights per side or three rear lights per side? I have always wondered why!

Frank

Two different sets of lamps existed:

3 per side: US market (possibly plus a few other LHD markets) comprising indicator, position/brake and a reflector.

2 per side: all other markets (indicator / combined brake/position lamp).

Thank you Frogelan!

Why didn’t I think of that!

Makes sense to me.

… and thanks to a few, probably the last of these interesting looks at the history of the factory from Motoring man. Thanks guys.
