1988 Lotus Esprit Turbo Limited Edition White Only 88 Of These Wwere Built on 2040-cars
Lake Elsinore, California, United States
|
Up for sale is a rare 1988 40th Anniversary Lotus Esprit Turbo. There were only 88 of these special editions built. The plaque which identifies which number this car is has been damaged, but it is speculated to be number 51 or 52. I can not confirm this. This could be a fine example with a little time and effort. The first picture is what the car could look like if given the proper attention. The rest of the pictures are of the actual car. I am selling the white car only as the red car has already been sold. I will be adding more pictures in a couple of days.
Here's the run down. The clear coat is peeling so the paint needs to be refinished. Some of the interior is lifting and needs new adhesive applied to repair it. The car starts to smoke after a few minutes of running. When i purchased the car it had been sitting and wasn't running. While getting the car back in working order, Sterling Auto Sports in Temecula, CA diagnosed the smoke issue as a stuck/broken ring on one of the pistons. New fuel pumps were installed during this time. Due to having a new daughter, this is as far as i got on this project. Otherwise this car shows typical wear and tear of a 1988 vehicle. This is as much as i know about the condition of the car. This car is sold as is and has no warranty expressed or implied. The condition of anything not listed is unknown. $1500 deposit by paypal or cash is due within 48 hours of auction close. The balance is to be paid within five working days by cash or certified bank draft. Buyer is responsible for vehicle transport. It should not be driven in its current condition. |

Race Recap: 2013 Bahrain Grand Prix follows the template of this year and last [spoilers]
Mon, 22 Apr 2013The sand, the wind, the penalties, the contact and the one crash - all of them collided to make the Bahrain Formula One Grand Prix a surprise affair from day to day and lap to lap. Oh, and did we mention the tires? Pirelli made a last-minute swap after the amusement park ride that the Chinese Grand Prix turned into with the soft compound tire, and brought medium and hard compounds to the desert. That didn't stop things from falling apart for some teams - literally - and that didn't stop the one team that seems to love the hard compound Pirelli tire.
EVO "2012 Car of the Year: The Track Battles" is a sports car salmagundi
Sun, 25 Nov 2012EVO has come out with another gotta-watch-it video, throwing its 2012 Car of the Year contestants around the UK's 1.5-mile Blyton Park track. It's actually a 15-minute teaser for the full-length DVD detailing the magazine's Car of the Year selection, but the tease is worth every penny free second.
Tiff Needell and sports car racer Richard Meaden handle the wheel duties, the two driving five pairs of sports cars: Lotus Exige S vs. Porsche Boxster S, Morgan Three-Wheeler vs. Toyota GT86, BMW M135i vs. Porsche 911, Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series vs. Alpina B3 GT3, the marquee event pits the McLaren MP4-12C vs. the Pagani Huayra. After a head-to-head lap with commentary during drifts, Meaden takes each car out to set a representative lap time.
You'll find the verdicts, lots of tire smoke, and lines like "Anything you can do sideways I can do sideways" in the video below.
Forza Horizon announces January Recaro Car Pack with LFA N"urburgring Edition
Wed, 26 Dec 2012Another month, another car pack for Forza Horizon. This time it's the Recaro Car Pack featuring a motley gang of cars and trucks: the 1983 GMC Vandura G-1500, 1995 Ford Mustang Cobra R, 2012 Cadillac Escalade ESV, 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLR, 2012 Lexus LFA Nürburgring Edition and 2012 Lotus Exige S.
It'll be up for download on Xbox Live on Tuesday, Jan. 1, 2013 for 400 MS Points. As usual, if you have the Forza Horizon Season Pass you can get them all free, and Season Pass holders will also get a bonus car that's not pictured: the 2009 Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster.
The Pagani is everything opposite to that Vandura, but while you might not ever win anything with the van, you can always use the back of it as a place to give out free hugs. Check out the video and press release below for more details.
