As that's probably the most famous Esprit, I'd say it's definitely on topic here. 😉

Two Lotus road cars in salubrious company among the Classic Team Lotus collection at the weekend (one is Scott's)

Delighted to chat with Russell Carr at the Elan 60 event on Sunday and hear his tales about the styling of the S4 and late V8 face lifts

This.... Is the Lotus Esprit V8

Not watched it myself yet, so no idea if it's the wing or wheels that have been changed on it. Pretty sure that wasn't a factory combo. Love the colour though.

[ChrisJ]

Really enjoyed that - good & fair review.

Just look at the size of the truck.

My cars off to sw lotus to get some loving care.. Couldn't drive it there as had a leaky fuel line from thr flowlock.. 

Off to get that fixed with a new fuel harness, cam belt changed, rocket gaskets changed and cover powder coated.... And a good  service... That's at least what I could see.. Am sure thr list will grow. And if I csn afford few small. Touch ups.

Peter Stevens showed this pic of an Esprit replacement concept styling during his Brooklands talk this week. He referred to it as "M200" but that was later used for an M100 concept (I wonder if this was actually "X200" in the Esprit X180 sequence?)
