She had 3 elans. One of which was for sale in the early 90's in Pittsburgh PA. Dont know what happaned to it.
I beleive the first one was white...it was an S2. I think the other two were the blue you talked about.
She passed throught US customs here in Buffalo one day when a friend of mine was one duty. She was going to take the place of a Redgrave or maybe it was Julie Andrews in a Broadway show. They wanted to make sure she was not taking a job that an American could have...honest...that is what he told me.
Anyways...he had an Elan at the time and they spoke about it. I forget what she said..but I think she told him for the most part it was just a prop...or a car. Although she did like the Lotus.
