1997 Lotus Esprit V8 Twin Turbo, Low Mileage on 2040-cars
Year:1997
Mileage:29825
Location:

A beautiful, exotic, unbelievably fun car to drive. All maintenance has been done professionally, however one engine cam has failed and needs repair. I have not disassembled the engine and have decided to possibly sell the car as is. The car is otherwise in perfect shape, cosmetically and mechanically with great detail paid to maintenance. Tires, brakes, etc are all in very good condition with many miles remaining before any additional investment will be required. You will need to remove engine to properly investigate and repair cam, but I'm confident that once this is completed no other repairs will be necessary. The engine has always performed very strongly. Oil pressure and engine temperature were never a problem. The failed cam is the one that sends the signal to the ECU so no spark is being sent. The ECU and all related spark components have been replaced (coils, wires, sending units, etc) Please feel free to call me to discuss - 312-402-1166. This car has no damage history (no accidents) or body repairs and the low mileage is original (<30K). The transmission shifts perfectly and all syncro's and clutch are also fine. Again, call for more honest details about this car. Yes, if I don't sell it this week I will have the professionals repair the engine and then sell the car after that is accomplished. I need to retire and that means letting some of my toys go..... so call 312 402 1166. Personally I would rather buy a car like this where I'm in control of the repair rather than someone else. Your choice.

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.
NHTSA investigating Lotus Elise for oil leaks
Mon, 25 Jul 2011The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has received 17 complaints about an errant oil line in the Lotus Elise, and thus, has opened an investigation. The issue concerns the line on the front right cooler, which, having got loose, sprays oil either on the wheel or inside the engine bay.
This investigation pertains to around 4,400 of the little track-day wonders sold in the 2005 and 2006 model years. There have been no injuries, but one car did leave the road and catch on fire. A NHTSA investigation doesn't mean a full recall has been issued, just that your friends in the fed are looking into the matter.
Forza Horizon 3 adds Ford Police Interceptor, Jeep CJ5
Tue, Oct 4 2016We're only a few weeks past the debut of Forza Horizon 3, and already the folks at Turn 10 are introducing the first of six car packs for the open-world driving game. Focused heavily on performance, there are still a few, um, oddballs, including one we're sure Forza's livery customizers will have a blast with. The Smoking Tire Car Pack brings seven new vehicles to FH3, with the Aston Martin Vulcan, Pagani Huayra BC, GTA Spano, Lotus 340R, and BMW M2 repping traditional performance vehicles. As per usual, FH3 renders each car beautifully and promises a solid approximation of real-world performance – even if you do ditch the roads and opt to rampage through the Australian countryside. While performance is good, the Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor and the Jeep CJ5 Renegade bring an off-beat vibe to this particular pack. We aren't certain, but this might be the first time the Police Interceptor appears in a blockbuster driving game. While we expect plenty of police car liveries for the Crown Vic, Forza's rabid community of tuners and customizers are sure to do much more with it. As for the CJ5, is there a better vehicle for tooling about Australia? Yeah, we didn't think so. The Smoking Tire Car Pack is available for free as part of the Forza Horizon 3 Ultimate Edition or Car Pass program. Commitment-phobes can also download this single vehicle pack for $7.
