The overall condition of this Exige is great.  The interior is like new with only minor ‘scuffs’ on the driver side sill from entrance / egress.  The exterior is in very good shape with some minor road ‘peppering’ along the rocker panels consistent with this type of car and mileage.  The Star Shield on the front left nose has a small spot that is beginning 'lift' along the edge and has collected some dirt (minor).    

This is one nice driving Exige and just in time summer - If you’ve always wanted a Lotus, one that you can truly drive and enjoy, this is the one.  I had used this car as my daily driver and have taken it on several trips.  Getting in and driving this car will bring back memories when your dad sat you in a Go-cart for the first time.  The sounds, vibrations, exhaust, incredible handling and acceleration….   

Remember you are purchasing this vehicle, not for the opportunity to come out and look at it and then decide whether you want it or not afterwards.  Don’t waste your or my time, please ask questions up front.  I encourage inspections PRIOR to purchase. 

If you are genuinely interested in this Exige, please message me any questions you may have and I’ll do my best to answer them promptly.  I will make the vehicle available for local inspection prior to purchase.  The Lotus is located in the North Dallas Texas area.  This Exige needs nothing but a proud new owner.  Fly in and drive home.

The vehicle is being sold as is, where is.  No warranty is expressed or implied.  All funds must clear my bank before vehicle leaves my possession.

Top Gear caught filming Best of British near Buckingham Palace

Mon, 24 Jun 2013

YouTuber and car-fan extraordinaire Shmee probably had very little trouble tracking down the Top Gear film crew recently, as the group was putting together an episode that could accurately be described as "excessive." With its flag-waving (literally) Best of British theme, the TG guys gathered a jaw-dropping array of British cars, and parked them all right in front of Buckingham Palace to make extra sure that the point was driven home.
Top Gear hosts Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May were outfitted with a trio of Jaguar F-Types festooned with gigantic Union Jacks, with which to survey the landscape of British motoring glory. In the video below, you'll see that this includes any number of Mini, Aston Martin, Lotus, McLaren, Land Rover, Bentley and Rolls-Royce models (just to name a few), as well as a healthy dose of weird stuff that most people would never guess at being built in the UK. The lawnmowers and military vehicles are especially cool.

1991 Lotus Elan | eBay Find of the Day

Fri, Mar 1 2019

Lotus has always been a company that goes its own way, and the 1991 Elan you see above is quite possibly the strangest vehicle that the British automaker has ever designed and built. It's powered by a 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that sends 162 horsepower to the front wheels through a 5-speed manual gearbox. This generation of the Elan, which was produced from 1989-1995, remains to this day the only front-wheel-drive vehicle that Lotus has ever sold. And it wasn't very popular, with only 3,855 sold worldwide and less than 600 imported to the United States. That makes it a very rare car indeed. Lotus promotional materials claimed there were "definite advantages in traction and controllability," and added that "drawbacks such as torque steer, bump steer and steering kickback were not insurmountable." Road tests of the front-drive Elan almost universally praised the vehicle's excellent handling performance. The car you see here, sold by Gateway Classic Cars of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, looks to be in pretty good overall condition. The mileage is on the high side at nearly 111,000, but it has new paint, a new convertible top, and a refurbished interior. The asking price stands at $16,995, which makes it one of the least expensive vehicles to wear a Lotus badge that you can park in your garage and enjoy.

Volkswagen looking to acquire Proton, Lotus?

Thu, 26 Jul 2012

Let's say you're an automaker bent on world domination looking to grow your sales. That's going to have you looking at Asian markets, because that's where some of the biggest growth has been, and that's exactly what Volkswagen is doing as it considers making another run at Malaysia's Proton.
Reuters reports that Volkswagen is interested in at least a partial stake, if not a controlling interest in Lotus-parent Proton as a way to continue a production presence in the region without having to build its own factory.
Volkswagen already builds the Passat in a DRB-HICOM facility in Pekan, Malaysia, and plans are in place to build the Jetta and Polo there, as well. With both southeast Asia and its relationship with Proton figuring so importantly in Volkswagen's plans for expansion, buying into Proton can help ensure stability. Volkswagen is being tight-lipped about the whole idea, but CEO Martin Winterkorn did recently say, "it's our clear goal to continue the successful (expansion) course of past years with great dynamics and stability," which sounds an awful lot like deals are on the table to smooth the path to further growth.
