This beautiful Monaco White Lotus Esprit V8 twin turbo was purchased in 2013 from DC Motors in Anaheim CA, via a collector in Palm Springs CA, and at the time it had 12,800 miles on the odometer. In 2015, the V8 Lotus engine was COMPLETELY rebuilt by a Lotus Esprit trained technician at O’Gara Coach, in San Diego CA, with many new OEM Lotus parts (see below). The engine rebuild was a big project and was completed with approximately 16,000 miles on it. Since the rebuild, I have put over 9,000 miles on the car and the engine has performed very well. I believe the car has been in California all of its life, first sold and registered up near the CA bay area in 1999, then to Palm Springs, and now in San Diego since 2013. This car currently has 25,500 miles on it. I LOVE this Lotus Esprit V8, but the reason for selling it is because now I have TWO Lotus cars in my garage. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
