Model:

Sport 350

Miles per year: 1,000
Owned Since: September 2003
Purchase from: Private sale/ found on LEW

Other Cars: BMW 520i , Landrover 90, Peugeot 406 coupe (3.0 V6 auto) (possibly a TVR when I have more garage space)
Previous Lotus': 1989 Esprit NA
Why an Esprit: more car for your money than a Ferrari, better handling than a TVR
Upgrades: Not yet, but thinking about colouring wheels (black)
Problems: Faulty temp sensor, one wastegate replaced, the other due soon
Info: The NA was bought as a weekend car, super handling but lacked a few refinements, ie power and aircon, when I looked at alternatives, decided on the 350 as the ultimate Esprit.Used LEW for the bulk of the info.
