sailorbob Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 The VIN of the last Esprit was *10621 so yours would only be 8 cars before that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swindon_alan Posted March 2, 2016 Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 Hello Sky This is another Final Edition that one of the forum members on here sold on to Germany last year, if it helps: Notice the "e" crest on the fuel filler flap. Not sure if that was common to all of them. More here on the final production run with a lot more detail: http://www.lotusespritworld.com/EModels/V8US.html Engine badge: Quote I tempted fate...now my Esprit V8 IS in bits...(sob) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been musing over that "e" logo and I have just realised what it is: "Lotus Cars were awarded the Queen's Award for Enterprise for contribution to International Trade, one of 85 companies receiving the recognition in that category in 2002. Lotus cars wore the badge of the award for a number of years" Something I didn't know before!

redshift Posted April 27, 2016 Report Share Posted April 27, 2016 I may have a copy for mine at home, I'll check tonight. But this may not be useful because the CoC is for each individual car and gives the VIN. Is this the Esprit from Topline Motors in Dubai? If yes I looked at it too but as it was a federal US model I thought there would be issues with importing into Europe. Lotus issued mine very quick when I asked, I think it was Brian Hope who is responsable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sky_cz Posted May 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 (edited) Yes from Dubai. Only issue is that they need to see COC of same car model. I still dont ve answer form factory.

redshift Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 It is Brian Hope you need to contact. He is the principal homologation engineer at Lotus. I am sure the issue is the legal question of issuing a European Certificate of Conformity for your Federal spec car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
