Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Used in the movie The Spy Who Loved Me. Ex Lotus Museum, 19,404 miles. This is the road going version, not the submarine, and the Q Gadgets have been removed. Hopefully they also fixed the gasoline leaks that spray fuel on the coil.

Market commentary

Nothing like a little celebrity to inflate a price. Esprit S1s can be bought all day for under $10,000; for this price it really ought to have at least an ejection seat ... or Barbara Bachs brassiere in the glove box.
