The vehicle is a 1981 Lotus Esprit Turbo, manufactured in 1981. This HC-Powered model boasts a distinctive British motorsport pedigree, making it a standout classic car. Originally registered in the UK and later imported to Germany in 1994, this Esprit has undergone notable transformations, including a comprehensive body-off refurbishment around 2016. One of its most significant features is the replacement turbocharged 2.2-liter inline-four engine from an Esprit Turbo HC model, overhauled and installed in 2022 alongside a new Garrett turbocharger.
