Condition
-
Mechanical condition
The car requires a service, as it misfires slightly at low revs. The ignition lock occasionally sticks, and the electrics would also benefit from an inspection.
-
Interior condition
The interior is in decent condition but would benefit from a detailing. Wear is visible on the steering wheel, gear knob, and center armrest.
-
Exterior condition
The paint shows some stone chips and carries numerous decals, with the front spoiler having been touched up. Attractive wheels with good tires. A small piece of trim is missing from the driver’s door.
-
General condition
A delightful English sports car that is eager to be back on the road. With a service and inspection, this will be fully achievable.

Facts about the model
The Lotus Esprit Turbo S3, introduced in 1981, marked a major step in the evolution of the Esprit. Powered by a 2.2-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine producing around 210 hp, it combined lightweight construction with sharp handling, delivering true supercar performance of its era. Designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro with the iconic wedge profile, the S3 also benefited from improved aerodynamics, upgraded chassis, and a more refined interior. Today, the Turbo S3 stands as one of the most desirable variants of the Esprit range, embodying the spirit of 1980s performance and design.
