Let's start a series of Lotus posts. Part One: Lotus Eclat Sprint.

Not my favorite, from the outside... With a body which I wouldn't call fluid nor sensuous... To the interior, a bit too funky for my taste... Did you know that one? Best, Nicolas PS: Credit photos: Car and Classic. ...

I did not know this one! The interior, funky yes, but very much out there for its time!

Yes, I have read about these and as I recall seen a couple in the metal.

There’s something cool about it; wouldn’t this have been a fantastically funky family cruiser? So… is the Elite next 😁?

Hi RabidManatee Not trying to be pedantic but you do realise these were and are Fibreglass cars? Marc

Yep I realize that. In the metal is an expression.

I thought saying “in the fiberglass” would be pedantic.

Oh yes - that one. If my memory serves me right it's from about the same time as the classic Esprit. Something like a four-seat version of the two-seat Esprit.

Fully agree. IMO the angular design do not work well here.

This design can easily pass as a Citroen SL
By: MilDiver : May 25th, 2022-06:15
Not as nice as the Citroen SM though..

To help a friend, my wife & I staffed a Lotus show stand. A customer asked, 'Where's the battery?' I didn't know. We eventually found it ... under the plywood-stapled-with-cheap-carpet rear parcel shelf.
