Kenny Allan has had his 1974 Lotus Elan & BJ Race Shuttle trailer stolen from his house in Crossford near Lanark around 11pm on Tuesday 23rd Sept.

The car looks as oer the picture. The trailer was a standard BJ Race Shuttle 15ft long. Since its only 3 months old its still pristine in white with only the BJ stickers on it apart from a pair of small Ecurie Ecosse stickers on the rear panel

The trailer was seen being towed by a dark coloured Vectra estate on the Clyde valley road possibly heading for the M74. The trailer had the number plate G500 BNP on at the time of theft.

There is more info and some piccies on the Flat Chat forum in this Link Any help that you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

Any info to Kenny on 07928240823 or myself via here or any of the contacts on the link.

My bro-in-law who's a plod, told me recently that a number of this type of thing(racecars in /on trailers) have been turning up in Russia and eastern Europe. Bought by enthusiasts.

Nothing plod could do about it, and russians don't care.

Sad but true.

Dammed awful Kenny is a really good bloke --- one good thing is the classic Lotus world is quite small somebody will spot it.

Keep your eyes peeled guys

Good news Everyone!

Looks like the trailer and car have been returned without a mark, albeit with broken locks. Plod were not involved!!!

Thanks a lot.
