Hello,

I was interested in original Lotus sketches, including the Europa or and Type-75.

Does anyone know where I might purchase any of Oliver Winterbottom's original sketches?

Thanks,
David

Hi David,

I’m not aware of any that are available separately, but his book ‘A Life in Car Design’ (Veloce Publishing) does include a number of drawings including of the Type 75.

Thanks Richard. I appreciate the reply.

I do own the book and it's lovely. I often wonder what happens to many of the sketches the designers put together.  I'd be curious where many of the original Type-75 sketches wound up.

I think the only ones will be in Oliver’s private collection. I’m not aware of any such collection at Lotus.

Cheers, Richard
