Lotus Espirit Museum Quality. Ultra Low Miles ( 9798 Miles) V8 Twin Turbo on 2040-cars

FOR THE VIDEOS ABOUT THE CAR, PLEASE SEE THE PICS FOR THE LINK.  

You are viewing a stellar condition 1999 Lotus Esprit.  This vehicle has been stored indoors its entire life.   For a large chunk of its life it was stored in a climate controlled car bubble.  Its mechanic told me that THIS WAS ONE OF 123 Esprits that was imported to the United States in 1999. This car has an excellent AUTOCHECK record, which I encourage bidders to check out prior to bidding.  It will show the mileage history to show that the miles are spot on.  NO ACCIDENTS, NOTHING.  It is beautiful. Currently, the vehicle is stored inside a carpeted garage, which is nicer than most family rooms.  This is the lowest mileage LOTUS that I have ever seen at its age.  It’s also the best condition one I have ever seen.  It looks like it did on the showroom floor when it was new.  It even still smells like new.  NEVER smoked in.  NEVER raced or tested at the track.    Also, since it lives in Las Vegas, it has to stay out of the sun.  It usually only comes out for evening drives at sundown and loves the temperature.

It recently had a full look through and service at the LOTUS specialist in town.  It had its wheel bearings replaced and every inch of the car looked over.  The mechanic, who has worked on a multitude of these vehicles, has never seen one in this great of shape.  The cost for the above was $1000.  The only thing that acts up on the car is the ABS light. The reason it is acting up is because the sensors are very sensitive and when the bearings were replaced I was told that they need to go in to re-adjust the sensors to keep the light from going off.

I have included a ton of great photos along with a few videos.  You can hear the car running in one or two of the videos.  You can hear it purr like a kitten.

This car also has a custom trickle charge system installed so you can easily just plug the car right into the charger.  I am including the charger with the auction.  I believe this was about $400 to install.

The car has two keyless entry key remotes along with one engine kill deactivator.   One of the keyless entry remotes needs a new rubber connector.  This doesn’t impact the operation of it by any means. The car’s factory alarm is fully functional.

The car has power windows. The factory floor mats look brand new.

The car also has the glass top with it.  I usually keep the painted top on the car.  I feel that it looks more streamlined with it in vs. the glass top.

The rims are in great shape.  They just have a few chips in the typical spots since the rims are so even with the tires.  These are the typical chips that would be picked up with driving.  I have included video and good photos that you can see that they are in great shape.

This car runs like a champ, it never over heats, both of its turbos will lock you to the seat.  Once again, all of this was tested on the last service from the mechanic.

The tires are in excellent shape with no signs of dry rotting.  The tread looks to be at 70% or more. 

The stereo is the original factory ALPINE that is in perfect working order.

The paint is in amazing shape.  I only use the softest of clothes on it and when it gets detailed we use very minimal water on it.  Speaking of water, it has never been driven in water or rain.  If there is any fear of rain, it goes home immediately.

If there is a picture that I have not included, please let me know.  I have tried to hit every single angle and be as accurate as possible.  This car is 100% capable of going to BARRETT JACKSON.  It is an amazing vehicle and could really be a great piece in someone’s collection.  I wish I had the room to keep it myself.

Please pay particular attention to the photo of the steering wheel, which is often an area that easily shows wear and tear. That is NOT the case with this car; like the rest of the car, the steering wheel looks practically brand new.
