Descrição
Lotus Europa Special, 1972. A sought-after model with low mileage in beautiful original condition.
Unused and carefully stored for decades in the extensive private collection of a BRDC member, this Special was recommissioned for sale in early 2024 by Classic Lotus specialists with extensive competition experience. Following detailed inspection perished or worn parts were replaced and main systems rebuilt for MoT. These included steering ball joints and track rod ends as well as brake caliper caliper pistons, seals, pipes and hoses. Fuel system was stripped and rebuilt with new pump, carburettor diaphrams, jets and O-rings. Gearbox mounts, cooling hoses and spark plugs were replaced. Invoices are available along with original parts removed and retained.
Bodywork is original and in very good condition, with front and rear bumpers professionally re-chromed in 2024. Interior is original, clean and virtually unmarked. Aftermarket 1970’s accessories include Cannon anti-theft unit with PIN keypad on dashboard and under-dash storage box for compact cassettes (also available).
Big Valve twin cam engine starts easily and settles to idle with strong oil pressure, no leaks and impressive performance. Lotus documentation includes original Owner’s Handbook, Service Voucher Book and Service Manual.
The car is a delight to drive and ready to enjoy, needing only superficial fettling by a new owner to achieve its full glamour. Further details are available on request, visitors or independent inspection are welcome by appointment. We are located close to Belfast City Airport.
