Description
Rare Lotus Excel 2. 2 petrol 1984
Produced for just two years with the "narrow body" and badged as the Eclat / Excel. According to its VIN, this vehicle is number 183 out of only 251 manufactured for the 1984 model year. In total, just around 500 units of this early Eclat/ Excel specification ever left the Lotus factory, making it an exceptional rarity on the classic car market.
Aside from the narrow body style that distinguishes it from the later Excel SE (1985 onwards), this specific variant features a "dummy" second fuel filler cap on the opposite side, a unique 4-slot lower front grille, and is entirely free of French-sourced components
