For Sale: Ex-Dany Bahar’s Lotus Esprit

Dany Bahar, the former CEO of Lotus, asked the factory to rebuild a 2002 Lotus Esprit V8 featuring a fully rebuilt engine and gearbox, full respray in pearlescent white, and a unique re-trimmed leather and suede interior.

According to the Lotus Forums, the vehicle is now for sale after Dany only drove 1,000 miles with it. Next to the rebuild, the engineers fitted a series of Final Edition options used on the very last 2003 models. This includes AP Racing four-pot front and Brembo rear brake callipers, center exit exhaust and round rear lights.

The unique sports car will be sold with just 36,000 miles on the odo.
