Original-Owner 1985 Lotus Esprit Turbo

This 1985 Lotus Esprit is a rare find, originally purchased new by its current California-based owner. A British masterpiece crafted in Hethel, the car stands out as a coupe with a distinctive two-door sedan/coupé body type. Under its sleek hood lies an over-bored and rebuilt turbocharged 2.2-liter inline-four engine, delivering an impressive 160 horsepower and mated to a five-speed manual transaxle. The vehicle's safety features include manual seat belts, with active belts being optional. Its black exterior is complemented by tan leather upholstery inside. Notably, the car comes equipped with 15" BBS basketweave alloy wheels and is currently up for grabs at an online auction, having generated significant interest as evident from its "Bid: $15,500" status.
