This Elva MKII is a polished period racer

Noble Auctions’ Winter 2022 sale on March 30th has a number of eye-catching classics, but this bare-metal 1957 Elva MKII shone above the rest.

If you’re itching to get involved in some classic racing this year, but don’t want to enter in any of the usual suspects, then Noble Auctions’ Winter 2022 sale in Aartselaar, Belgium has just the car for you. This genuine 1957 Elva MKII 100/27 looks to be in absolutely perfect condition, and was confirmed by Elva founder, Frank Nichols, to be one of the first MKII’s ever made. In period, Elva MKII’s went wheel-to-wheel with Lola MK1s and Lotus 11s, even beating the likes of Ferrari’s 750 Monza, Maserati’s Tipo 61 Birdcage, and many others, despite a power disadvantage. So, it is as potent as it is beautiful, and therefore would make an excellent choice if you’re dying to get involved in some classic racing. If you think this Elva could be your shining star, then mark March 30th in your calendar and get ready to bid!
