Could be wrong but I don’t think it had the black pack option - otherwise, the Lotus boot badge would be black, along with the rear diffuser, exhaust tips and roof. Lovely example though.
Just out of curiosity why would someone drive this for 140 miles and sell it? Are they money laundering or something thats barely the drive back from the dealership
Too small . At 6.2 ft difficult to fit in there properly ; I think even you looked like you were too big for it, and I never liked Lotus except in the James Bond movie. A British brand but now majority Chinese owned, by Geely I believe, and the engine is from Toyota right ? To me this says , I want a super car but can only afford this…..But, to each their own. If Lotus is your thing , buy one.
I am 6ft and felt to be plenty of headroom. I also have a fat arse which pushes me up a bit 😂 I like it, it’s honest and raw, but totally get it isn’t everybody’s cup of tea.
2:04 that’s a Toyota power plant
Real world review. Excitement over knobs and admiration of gear linkages. Quality motoring journalism. Nice one Rob. 😁

That’s correct, non black pack on this one
Black pack includes roof black, lettering in black , and tail pipes in black also
Fair point well made! Thank you! Shame we can’t edit that out now. Explains the badge and for me, I’d certainly have that in black. 👍👍
I wouldn’t drive mine as a daily (traffic is too thick and the car gets too much attention everywhere its goes), but I love it as a weekend car!
An engine alone is more like a daily driver jap sedan

So it was bought for a collection but there has been a change of circumstances. Totally genuine reason to sell and quite sad really 😢
How much is this in dollars? Is this like $500,000 US??
Happy to accept that! But no, it is nearer $89,000 - bargain
What color again is that
Shadow grey
As above, Shadow Grey, Pearl Effect. Glorious 😊
