About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Recently and quite extensively serviced. Mistakenly referred to as an "Esprit Twin Cam" on the car card. Very good, spotless original paint other than a couple of scratches on he edge of the removable roof. Fairly worn seats, but the rest of the interior is quite good. Quite well kept and holding up better than many Lotuses out there, even the newer ones. The later, faster and most developed version of the Esprit that dates back to the 1970s.

Market commentary

This Lotus has supercar performance but the marque's legendary reliability issues cause bidders rightly to discount it heavily in comparison with other marques that are more renowned, even if they are similarly high maintenance. A lot of performance and exclusivity for the money, even at this healthy price.
