Eleven Breadvan article in C&SC

[techbod]

Classic and sports car have a 5 page spread on the Lotus Eleven Breadvan is this months (June) edition.

Interesting article and facts (door aren't hinged as per the 11 for example) but I have to say from some angles it is a 'functional' looking car compared to the original Eleven.

Its a fabulous looking car! I think this incarnation may have a slightly higher roof line than the original to accommodate the modern driver, the original looks slightly sleeker- allymally is the expert on here as he made it. One of my favorite cars....

For me, I think its the flyscreen halfway down the bonnet that jars at certain angles. I'm sure it works well at directing the airflow, flies and whatnot upward, but I find my eye being drawn to it and it breaks up the bonnet line. Personal thing obviously.

A handful of alternatively styled enclosed elevens (I think we have probably covered at least the first couple before):

Listed as a Lotus 11. Hard to see the back on that photo, but it comes down to have a definite boot.
Side view here of what I think is the the same car:
