Lotus' diminutive 1960s Elan quickly achieved iconic status and marked a high point in the company's history. No doubt a degree of reflected glory was sought by applying the same moniker to the very different Peter Stevens-penned M100 model launched in 1989

The SE Turbo was powered by a turbocharged 162bhp 1.6-litre four-cylinder offering 0-60 in 6.7 seconds and 137mph

This smart example is finished in British Racing Green, over black leather interior with matching black hood and sits on silver alloys

First registered in 1992, it was imported to Sweden 2011 by its current owner, returning to the UK earlier this year, with all taxes paid, and now ready for its new owner to register

Recently serviced before returning to the UK, the vehicle has been MOT’d and is supplied with its original handbook, invoices for its prior life in the UK, previous MOTs and Swedish import paperwork
