Description
The Lotus V8 GT press car, one of only 2 in gold, driven by all the journo's, including Tiff Needel for Top Gear (the video is around on the web). Was lent to the guy that organises the Canonball run, who then lent it to Jason Priestley who drove it around Europe to a 3rd place finish (I think). The event is commemorated in the Canonball 3000 Top Trumps Super Car set!
Has had sport 350 wheels fitted which look great against the gold of the bodywork - but aside from that (and a new clutch, gearbox and engine fitted when Lotus had finished letting the press thrash it) - it is exactly as God intended it to be (i.e. perfect).
