'Tis true I'm afraid.

In fact I'd heard there was only one unsold UK spec car left.

Come on chaps! Take heart, there may be few new ones left, but in a year they will end up in Autotrader ready for the enthusiasts to pick up at even better prices....


In fact, there are three MY02s with a few Ks on the odo 5G cheeper at dealers right now!

As of this afternoon there are 2 UK spec cars left which are in build and have been bought for stock by two dealers. Both are Starlight Black. One with Magnolia leather and the other with Black leather.

What about the inferno one at SGT? and the azure one at Williams?

If they had been Silver I might have considered them.
I wanted one in Silver with no history.

The Esprit had 27 wonderful years of equalling (and many times bettering) cars costing many times as much. Its a testament to what Lotus can do. With luck, Lotus will have something even more amazing to give us. I've heard that Lotus will continue to use the Esprit name. At least we Americans will get a taste of the Elise in a few years!
