This person seems to think it's called an Elan, which rings a bell. I've taken the decals off mine since they were flaking off, but having looked over the pictures I took when I first got it, the top tube decals were already gone, and it seems that that's where the model was actually written!
I was gearing up to sell mine but am reconsidering it now, I'd forgotten how much I love the paint! It was also my first road bike.
Looking forward to seeing how it looks as a single speed.

The paint scheme looks OK when it's not in a dishevelled state like mine is. I've been working abroad all week, but just going to call the bike shop and see if they've managed to get the seat post and bottom bracket out yet.....
