1974 Lotus Europa Special with Big Valve Twin Cam engine and 4 speed transmission.
The car is complete and working, but I haven't used it for about a year and it needs some refreshing and a lot of
cosmetics. The battery is dead, but the car can be jump started.
The odometer shows 95k miles, the engine is healthy, showed good oil pressure. It has a tubular header instead of
the cast iron manifold, the original manifold is available. The preheating tubes were deleted.
The chassis is in good condition, was covered with a thick coat of red oxide paint and still holding up nicely.
Suspension bushes are ok, no play. Rear axle bearings and u-joints are good.
Transmission shifts smoothly- compared to an Europa- the bushes were replaced with polyurethane.
The carburetors were rebuilt about 2 years ago, starter was replaced about a year ago, brakes were upgraded: the
boosters were deleted and a dual circuit Triumph master cylinder was installed with proportioning valve. ( The
original boosters are available if the buyer wants them. ) Shocks are upgraded to adjustable GAZ coilovers with
slightly stiffer springs. A set of Koni and Spax shocks and the original springs are included too.
The car body was started being prepped for a repaint, but never finished. The paint otherwise is still the
original. The badges that were removed are included.
Interior is complete but worn.
Tachometer is not working and side indicators sometimes are acting funny. Thermostat circuit was deleted and has a
switch for the cooling fan in the interior.

Next Lotus Elise to draw from its roots

Wed, Jul 27 2016

Recently-appointed Lotus CEO Jean-Marc Gales told Autocar that work on the new Lotus Elise, which is coming in 2020, is already underway, and thanks to growing sales, the automaker is set to make a profit for the first time in 20 years. Gales also dropped some details about the new sports cars' design philosophy and underpinnings. According to the report, the new Elise will utilize the same aluminum chassis technology found in the original Elise and won't bear any resemblance to the 2010 Elise concept. Instead, the upcoming vehicle will uphold its roots with a lightweight design that emphasizes driver involvement at an affordable price. The new Elise is rumored to weigh in at roughly 1,984 pounds, almost 384 pounds more than the original Elise. In order to meet US crash ratings, the Elise will most likely be wider, but have the same length as the current model. Power will probably come from a Toyota unit producing between 134 horsepower and 245 horsepower. The Elise is expected to come to the US where it will be offered with a manual and automatic transmission, which will both come from Toyota as well. Gales claims Lotus has more orders now than in any year in the last 10 years, with the US being one of the automaker's most important markets. Related Video:

Coca-Cola returning to F1 with Lotus sponsorship [w/videos]

Sat, 24 Nov 2012

Even before Red Bull Racing became a record-breaking three-time Constructor's Champion in Formula One, it has dominated conversations both as a team and as an energy drink. After seven years of "Red Bull this" and "Red Bull that," Coca-Cola is reportedly ready to jump into the F1 fray with its Sweden-based energy drink Burn.
Rumors had placed Coca-Cola's entry with McLaren F1, but it's actually Lotus that has secured the deal. We have no idea what the sponsorship will look like, but the website for Burn says that "We [intend] to foster that creativity by incorporating art and music in a way that will break the conventions of traditional F1 sponsorship," Lotus F1 team principal Eric Boullier adding "We are excited to partner with burn to build a new and innovative model for sponsorships that will combine experiences, content creation and social media..."
Since most - including this writer - have no idea what Burn is, we've included a couple of Burn commercial spots to help get us up to speed, which you'll find below. The 2012 season hasn't even ended, and we're already looking forward to 2013...

Kimi Raikkonen moving to Ferrari?

Wed, 14 Aug 2013

Kimi Raikkonen, easily one of our favorite current drivers in Formula 1, may be making a move from Lotus to Ferrari, according to a Finnish tabloid called Ilta-Sanomat. Raikkonen, who won the driver's championship in 2007 with the Italian brand, is in high demand and is also rumored to have options on the table from Red Bull and his current team.
Of course, a move by Kimi to Ferrari means at least one of the Maranello-based outfit would need to find another ride. Driving ace Fernando Alonso has publicly voiced his displeasure with the Ferrari chassis, and rumors have the Spaniard considering a move to Red Bull to replace Mark Webber. Buckle up, folks, this Silly Season is shaping up to be bumpy...
