1971 Lotus Westfield 11 White with tan interior. 83,000 miles 1275 engine 4 speed transmission, wire wheels. From a long time owner who had the whole car sorted out mechanically almost $9000 was spent on the car in the spring of 2013, the receipt is posted below in the photographs(please note they made a mistake in listing the mileage as being 36,000 on the receipt when it was very close to the current mileage when this work was done).  Runs great, super fast on the road, go cart handling, probably one of the most beautiful car designs ever. Body has some chips, some scraps, a few cracks but all very useable.  Westfield is a replica of the Lotus 11. It is built upon an MG Midget Chassis, thus it is registered at a 1971 MG. The interior has been redone and while the outer body has some chips and scratches, the car runs very well and is huge fun to drive and mechanically it has been well sorted out. There is an article that was written by a Road + Track writer who bought a Westfield Kit, he assembled the car and then drove it around the USA. The link is here: http://members.toast.net/joerger/north.html It is worth taking the time to read this and learn about these exciting fun to own cars. The car also has a cover that snaps on over the interior compartment that totally covers it so the cars interior could be protected in the rain. This is a really cool fun car. I have a page with many additional photographs of the car that show it from about every angle, please take the time to visit the page and study the photographs if you are seriously interested. forzamotorsports with the usual com ending

Car is located in Northwestern Connecticut about 75 miles north of New York City. If you have questions you can reach me thru ebay or call 860-350-1140. Buyer pays shipping. International buyers welcome, I can help set up shipping but you must pay for it.  Thank you for looking at my listing

Lotus Eletre electric SUV reveal: Tune in today at 2:30 p.m Eastern

Mon, Mar 28 2022

The upcoming electric Lotus SUV formerly known as the Type 132 officially has a name. It will be called the Lotus Eletre, and the vehicle’s full reveal is today, Tuesday, March 29. For those curious, Lotus says that Eletre means “coming to life” in some Eastern European languages. If you want to pronounce it properly, Lotus provides the phonetic spelling: “El-etra.” Basically, the "e" at the end is to be pronounced as an "a." Beyond the name announcement, Lotus doesnÂ’t have anything extra to share with us today. The name itself was revealed in a dramatic fashion, as a specially-made yellow cube containing the car was piloted up and down the River Thames in central London. Boats and cars being in the same news story as of late havenÂ’t always been for good reasons, but thankfully, this one seems to have gone just fine. If you want to watch the reveal live, make sure to tune in here at 2:30 p.m. ET Tuesday. WeÂ’ll have the live stream in this post waiting to start, so you can check back in right here at reveal time.

Lotus F1 confirms Grosjean, Maldonado for 2015

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

With the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix now just ten days away, the focus is beginning to shift to next year's Formula One World Championship, with more and more pieces to the puzzle falling into place. And the latest news comes from the Lotus team. The Enstone-based outfit has confirmed that it's keeping both its drivers right where they are for next season, with Romain Grosjean partnering Pastor Maldonado once again.
Swiss driver Grosjean, now 28 years old, made his grand prix debut with the team in 2009, returned as test driver in 2011 while winning the GP2 title, returned to the F1 grid in 2012 and has been driving for the team ever since. He's scored nine podium finishes to date, but has finished no better than his eighth place this season.
Venezuelan pilot Maldonado, 29, won the GP2 the year before his teammate, and moved up to F1 with Williams, for whom he drove for three seasons before switching to Lotus for this one. He shocked the field when he won the Spanish Grand Prix in 2012, but has only finished in the points once this season.

Lotus Evora, Exige, and Elise add lightness to Geneva

Thu, Mar 3 2016

The folks at Lotus have been quite busy over the past few months adding lightness to their vehicles. Since December, the company has introduced lighter, quicker versions of the Evora, Exige, and Elise, and all three members of the trio are present at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show. Each one is special in its own way, but if you crave a nimble sports car, you probably wouldn't be disappointed with any of these new models. The Evora Sport 410 is the most luxurious member of the bunch, at least by Lotus standards. At 2,921 pounds, it's also the heaviest, but a 410-horsepower 3.5-liter supercharged V6 makes this one the most powerful, too. The coupe can rocket to 60 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds and to a 186-mph top speed. Lotus will make just 150 of these special Evoras per year, and they'll have carbon fiber parts for the roof, tailgate, sports seats, and more. Best of all, this will be the only one of these three that will get a North American version. The Exige Sport 350 Roadster is the coolest member of this group, featuring tartan seats that we absolutely love. It's also the quickest of the three, reaching 60 mph in just 3.7 seconds, and it tops out at 170 mph. The rapid sprint is possible because the 345-hp 3.5-liter supercharged V6 only needs to push 2,480 pounds. The Elise Cup 250 rounds out the group with the lightest weight at 2,053 pounds (2,030 pounds with the optional Carbon Aero Package) but the least power at 243 hp. However, it certainly isn't slow with a 60-mph run in 3.9 seconds and a top speed of 154 mph. Lotus plans to make just 200 of them year each year. If you could pick any one of the three, which would you choose? The Evora might be the most livable every day but chucking around the Elise could be a barrel of fun. There're also those fantastic seats in the Exige. Let us know in Comments which one you want the most.
