48-Years-Owned 1971 Lotus Europa

The 1971 Lotus Europa, a British sports car manufactured in the early 1970s, is a rare and distinctive sight from an era where sports cars were designed for driving purists. Originally owned for 48 years by a single enthusiast, this classic vehicle showcases its timeless design, with a fibre-glass bodyshell in signature Lotus yellow, housing a mid-engine layout powered by a robust Coventry Climax engine. This Europa stands out as a true representation of Colin Chapman's philosophy of 'adding lightness', weighing just over 1600 pounds and accelerating from 0-60 in under seven seconds. Currently residing in Seabrook, Texas, this classic car offers an unparalleled opportunity for any new owner to experience the spirit of British motoring at its purest.
