The car is in excellent shape, you are not going to have any problems to drive it.
If you interested in the car, plz do not hesitate and make an offer, do not worry about my feelings if u think the
offer is low, the offer doesn't bite, so it will not shed my blood and I always can decline it, counteroffer or ...
accept it, you never know.
For sale is the one of the best street/track cars on the planet. However, what makes it amazing, no power steering,
is the reason I am forced to sell it. My doctor has diagnosed me with torn ligaments in my bicep and shoulder and
as a result, I’m forced to part with my favorite car in the whole world.
The second reason is that I passed 65 and it's getting more and more inconvenient to get in and out and the ride is
a noisier and shaky then I would prefer now.
I'm the second owner for this beautiful Lotus Exige 220 S and it was purchased originally with 11,000 miles, to
which I’ve put on an additional 57,000 miles myself.
Of the additional miles that I added 70% were on highways, 20% on the track, and 10% on the streets.
I stopped tracking it for 2 years now, and almost stop driving since the injury progressing, so the suspension and
wheel alignment tuned to perfect street driving.
The car has had no incidents at the racetracks or anywhere else, but unfortunately, a few years ago while driving
on the street an old Mack truck did not see that I was in front of it on a red light and started to creep towards
the light. Because the entire car is fiberglass and the truck had guard rails, even though it was an accident at
about 3-5mph there was damage to the fiberglass to the left rear which is visible in the photos. There was
absolutely no damage to anything structural, as it was purely a cosmetic issue, which is why I decided to not get
it fixed.
If u want to repair it, that's not a problem.
Today the fiberglass is not a problem to repair.
The Fibertech fixes the cracks and scuffs - heavy material that is a mix of Fiberglass and Kevlar - but very
strong.
"There are many benefits to using the Fibertech brand of fiberglass reinforced polyester (FRP) and fiberglass
reinforced concrete (GFRC) by Wilson Composites, LLC. It produces an unsurpassed building material with an
exceptionally high strength-per-dollar cost". "Our Fibertech products do not rot or rust, do not absorb water,
cannot be damaged by termites or other insects, and feature a long-lasting composite surface".
The car is super reliable, I'm not a poor man and never save money on cars, especially track cars of which I have
had many.
The safety driving on streets and especially on track is the most important issue and for that the machinery must
be kept absolutely healthy and money was spent without limits keep the cars in best shapes.
The very positive side of the Lotus is that parts are relatively inexpensive because it's a small car and easily
endure the pressure since it's a light car and was designed for track use more than for street use.
The car has some cosmetic wear and tear as any car with mileage.
The official name of the color is Canyon Red.
The sum of doors number 939 totals 21 - Blackjack Game winning number.
Although the car is now used for street driving only, it was prepped for the track - street (I drove to and
back from tracks in this car on these tires) from the start and includes many aftermarket parts from Sector 111:
Aftermarket Stiffer sway bar
Sector 111 slotted rotors
Pagid RS14 brake pads 60% - 70% left
Aluminum Radiator
New bushings
New Tie Rods
V2 Fuel Tank
V2 Oil Pan
Upgrade brake lines
Carbon Fiber larger roof scoop
Upgraded Intercooler
Trackmate
Rear Camera (Requires LCD display)
6-Point Harness System (However they are expired 2015)
Tires: Bridgestone Potenza R11 with 50% tread life
New, recently changed, stock OEM supercharger
Practically new Bilstein PSS10 adjustable suspension
New, just about 15,000 miles gear box
New Larini exhaust from Sector 111
The car was extremely well maintained by the Intermecanica in Mamaroneck, NY which is well known for dealing with
Lotuses only.

Lotus Evora GT410 Sport exhaust is the best new holiday song

Fri, Dec 21 2018

No matter what holidays people are celebrating, there's one winter celebration car enthusiasts can come together for: Driftmas. A Lotus Evora GT410 Sport was recently possessed by the ghost of Driftmas present Ken Block and decided to get sideways all over the Lotus campus in Hethel, Norfolk, England. The result is a beautiful winter symphony. The video is done in a slightly cheeky manner, as the yellow Evora shows up to work with a fully geared-up driver in the front seat, and a full Christmas tree stick to the rear engine cover. After blowing past a pristine Espirit S1 in a "slow" zone, the Evora slowly creeps through one of the garages, where a beautiful black and gold Type 72 race car sits quiet as a mouse. It then makes its way through a testing area and to a parking lot, where it rings a few bells around three specialty Lotus models, including what appear to be Exige Cup cars. It finishes the ride in front of the main office, where Lotus has another Christmas tree filled with little toy cars as ornaments. Before the Grinches start complaining about how it's not Gymkhana, that's correct. It's not. But we'd never turn our noses at a video with a soundtrack a sweet as this. Merry Driftmas to all.

Lotus getting into the motorcycle business

Fri, 21 Jun 2013

Lotus founder Colin Chapman is famously quoted as saying something to the effect of "Simplify, then add lightness." We're a bit amazed that it took this long, but someone appears to be taking that message to heart at the British marque, losing a couple of wheels, a clutter of bodywork and a whole mess of weight. No, Lotus isn't planning another spindly Seven-style trackday racer, it's getting into motorcycles.
Well, sort of. As an automaker, Lotus apparently isn't directly behind this two-wheeled effort, but it does appear to have officially lent its brand and logo to a new company, Lotus Motorcycles, which counts former Volkswagen Group designer Daniel Simon, Germany's Holzer Group and auto racing team Kodewa among its partners. The latter builds and races Lotus' T128 Le Mans Prototype in the World Endurance Championship series.
The new company is touting an as-yet unseen motorcycle, a racing-inspired "hyper bike" called C-01, releasing only the image above - a carbon fiber fuel tank trimmed in Lotus' trademark black and gold livery. Details are tough to come by, but the project is said to include a powertrain good for around 200 horsepower and construction involving titanium, carbon fiber and aerospace-grade steel.

Lotus team out of Le Mans, full driver list published

Tue, 20 May 2014

We can scratch off one more car from the list for the 2014 24 Hours of Le Mans. The Lotus T129 LMP1 car has been dropped from the entry list of the 82nd running of the historic race, with organizers citing "a lack of preparation" as the reason. On a more positive note, the list of 168 drivers in 56 vehicles has been officially published for the June 14 race.
Like the Lotus team currently in Formula One, the Lotus T129 uses the iconic British brand's name and colors but is actually built by a separate company. It previously ran a Lola chassis in the LMP2-class (pictured above). The Le Mans organizers claim the car will likely be on display during the 24-hour race, but it won't make it's competition debut until the World Endurance Championship round at the Circuit of the Americas in September. The T129 is being replaced by an Oreca 03 chassis with Nissan power in the LMP2 class, entered by Millennium Racing.
The Lotus' retirement came as the teams had to send in the names of the three drivers nominated to race each car. This year there are racers from 26 countries with the most coming from France (39), Britain (29), the US (17) and Italy (15). The latest tally of entries breaks down to 9 LMP1s, 19 LMP2s, 9 LM GTE Pros, 18 LM GTE Ams and the Nissan ZEOD RC as the experimental Garage 56 entry.
