Hello:

I am selling my Lotus Esprit V8 twin Turbo, it is a 1997 and immaculate cosmetically and near flawless mechanically. I would not be selling it but can only keep one weekend car and my other listing (BMW widebody 540i show car) has not had any offers close to what I am asking) so Esprit has to find a new home. Here are the details: Purchased it in July 2011 with 31.8 k miles and previous owner was a collector who was fanatical with his cars. Symbolic Motors in San Diego Calif, Lotus Prep by Claudius and Viking Motors in Costa Mesa were only shops that worked on it since his ownership. I had Lotus Prep on 4/3/13 reset the ECU (battery went too low about 9 mos ago), install Claudius built straight pipe and Momo red accent steering wheel. Timing belts always checked on timely basis, I had Symbolic Motors check the belts prior to purchase and they were perfect, car was also given clean bill of health. Mechanic at Symbolic stated my Esprit was probably the nicest he has worked on. I was told it was worth $ 35 K by Lotus Prep. Has stock and Race ECUs, stock pipe and Claudius straight pipe (not too loud), Electronic Boost controller( pro installed and always set at low pressure), Blow off valves, K& N filter, CD player with speakers and subwoofer, upgraded factory OZ wheels (no road rash or corrosion, showroom condition), I am very picky and rate the cosmetic condition a solid 9.4 (most people think it is a 2012 and for a 16 yr old car, simply unbelievable). Mechanics are close to mint (please contact me for details), I firmly believe you will be hard pressed to find another Esprit in this condition both mechanically and cosmetically. Now the awesome part, within last 8K has new alternator, fuel pump, 2nd gear and clutch, transmissions shifts great and even reverse is excellent, etc etc. Have books and very detailed records, current Calif registration, clear CA pink slip. Car is located near Los Angeles. If your looking for a V8 Esprit please check mine out, it is a turn key example and most importantly mechanically sound and cosmetically absolutely pristine. If you have any questions my cell is 213 216-2285 Just a FYI, these pictures were taken about 2 weeks ago, reason the new car title is taped to front windshield, I don't have a front license plate attached to front bumper and don't want to be pulled over by CHP in California. Thanks

Lotus F1 confirms Grosjean, Maldonado for 2015

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

With the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix now just ten days away, the focus is beginning to shift to next year's Formula One World Championship, with more and more pieces to the puzzle falling into place. And the latest news comes from the Lotus team. The Enstone-based outfit has confirmed that it's keeping both its drivers right where they are for next season, with Romain Grosjean partnering Pastor Maldonado once again.
Swiss driver Grosjean, now 28 years old, made his grand prix debut with the team in 2009, returned as test driver in 2011 while winning the GP2 title, returned to the F1 grid in 2012 and has been driving for the team ever since. He's scored nine podium finishes to date, but has finished no better than his eighth place this season.
Venezuelan pilot Maldonado, 29, won the GP2 the year before his teammate, and moved up to F1 with Williams, for whom he drove for three seasons before switching to Lotus for this one. He shocked the field when he won the Spanish Grand Prix in 2012, but has only finished in the points once this season.

Race Recap: 2013 Indian Grand Prix mostly calm with chances of Championships

Mon, 28 Oct 2013

The smog around the Buddh International Circuit got so bad over the weekend that the FIA had to change the practice sessions. Then the soft tires that Pirelli brought to be the options were found to degrade so quickly that teams had to change their qualifying and race strategies. The only man it didn't seem to affect was - guess who? - Sebastian Vettel, who put his Infiniti Red Bull Racing on pole position.
Behind him came Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton in the Mercedes-AMG Petronas, Mark Webber in the second Infiniti Red Bull and on medium tires, Felipe Massa in the first Ferrari, Kimi Räikkönen in the first Lotus, Nico Hülkenberg in the first Sauber, Fernando Alonso in the second Ferrari, and the McLaren duo of Sergio Perez and Jenson Button. The tire strategizing didn't work out for Romain Grosjean in the second Lotus, who didn't get out of Q1 after only running the medium compound tire and lined up 17th.
The Indian Grand Prix has been held twice and Vettel has led every single lap of both races. If nothing else, we knew there would be at least one new thing about this Indian Grand Prix: there'd be a lap not led by Vettel since he qualified on softs and would have to pit before Webber and Alonso who were both on mediums.

Forza Horizon announces January Recaro Car Pack with LFA N"urburgring Edition

Wed, 26 Dec 2012

Another 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.
