you seen the Cayman R pics? on page 3 i think.

 

[Andyk]

That colour works surprisingly well with the Cayman...I quite like it when people take a bit of a risk with a colour too.....you do have to have a certain imagination........respect.

The QP looks magnificent as ever Enz.......nice to see the 4200 and 3200 represented too.

P

That is the standard colour on the Cayman R...You will see a few it that colour I would think....


Thanks for the pics Adam.....Seeing the Esprit Sport 350 brings back some great memories as a friend had one and I yearned for one....


Enzo, you QP looks great dirty or clean...

 

[GransportFan1]

See i think that Esprit was vile, looked like a kit car with that dinner tray i mean spoiler on the back.

 

[Andyk]

Back in the day Adam....back in the day.....

This Esprit would see off many a supercar...But hey I'm a huge Lotus Esprit fan....everyone of them...

 

[GransportFan1]

Yeah they are mega fast, bet it is still rapid today the 350, they are really rare aren't they??

 

[Andyk]

Yep,

Official Numbers from Lotus
42 cars left the production line as official Sport 350's. These included 6 directors cars, with 2 being black and 1 ice blue. 8 US spec Sport 350's were also made, taking the total to 50. There was also 4 UK spec cars sent to Japan for track use only. Which brings the total up to 54 Sport 350.

 

[GransportFan1]

what are they worth now?? £35k??

 

[Andyk]

Depending on miles and condition as with everything 20k to 30k ....Its the earlier Sport 300 thats worth more 35k plus....
