Lotus Esprit (1993)
for sale
Price: US $20,500.00
Price: US $20,500.00
For auction is my Esprit Turbo, a truly great
car. This one has only 24000 miles. I am the third owner having purchased it 4
years ago after a yearlong search. The
work done is documented below. Everything works as it should. The paint is original and shows the wear of 20+ years. The previous owner bumped the left front
bumper with his snow blower and cracked the paint. Tires are 3 year old Kuhmo Escatas, not the
best handling but I wanted to keep the Revolution wheels. I have the certificate of provenience and
documentation from Lotus Cars which goes with the car.
I have had several toy cars and thought the Esprit was
to be the “forever” car. But realized
there are several other cars I really want to own (Elan +2S, MGB GT, TR 250) so
The Lotus is for sale. The search, purchase and road trip home are documented in an article I wrote published on
Petrolicious here: here
I removed the rear wing (I think it looks
better). It is bubble wrapped in the
basement and comes with the car.
