It’s not that we forgot to put the year of the car in the title, the fact is that the seller didn’t write it. In fact, this Elite, perhaps the most beautiful Lotus ever produced, is a “Type 14”, produced from 1957 to 1963: we are not Lotus experts so we are unable to deduce,… Read More Needs cosmetics: Lotus Elite Type 14
This 1970 Lotus europa belongs to the Series 2 Federal, or rather to the DOT approved Lotus cars.

It’s however a 1050 kg (2300 pounds) car pushed by an inline-four, twin cam engine which… Read More Ugly duckling: 1977 Lotus Eclat
This 1st series Elan roadster is the quintessence of the british sports car. Light, basic and open, it weights 1300 pounds and it’s pushed by a 1558 c.c. straight-4 dohc engine fed by a couple of double-throath Webers corburetors. This particular car features a “camo” paint, due to many years of sitting outside. The seller… Read More Camo roadster: 1964 Lotus Elan S1
