A RARE Lotus with just 610 miles on the clock has gone under the hammer.
Petrolheads could be the new owner of the eye-catching Exige Sport 420 Final Edition when it goes to auction.
Snaps of the stylist road-legal race car reveal the motor’s sleek Vortex Grey finish and elegant Black Alcantara and leather cabin.
The vehicle comes complete with a six-speed manual linkage and unassisted steering as well as a supercharged V6 engine.
The wheels, tyres, and suspension are taken from the Cup 430 racer, and the interior is packed with bespoke features.
Lotus is a British automaker with a reputation for creating some of the most driver-focused sports cars in the industry.
This track special has been in production since 2000.
This Final Edition Lotus marks the end of production by giving drivers the ultimate road experience.
This head-turning model will be auctioned off by SBX Cars with its guide price available on enquiry.
“This 2022 Lotus Exige Sport 420 Final Edition is powered by a 3.5L supercharged V6 rated for 420 horsepower and 315 lb-ft of torque,” reads the listing.
“One of the fastest and rarest S3 Exige variants that will ever be made.
“This 2022 Lotus Exige Sport 420 Final Edition is a GCC-spec model that is compliant with GCC regulations with a focus on handling extreme heat.
“This 2022 Exige Sport 420 Final Edition appears to be in immaculate condition inside and out, which aligns with the low mileage.”
For those unswayed by the Lotus, motor heads may be pulled in by an ultra rare, restored, nineties Ford which was inspired by an iconic racing vehicle.
The rally-ready Ford has hit the auction market and it could be yours for an astronomical sum.
For £350,000, sports car owners could nab the classic and powerful 1990 Ford RS200.
Thought to be one-of-20, the Ford RS from the ‘Group B’ rallying era has been spotted in excellent condition.
The model has even been finished in Ferrari red and it is a road-legal version of the competitive rally car from Ford.
Decked out with all the mod-cons a driver could desire, the vehicle has Speedline split-rims electric windows and mirrors, and a remote central locking and alarm system.
The interior pictures also reveal comfort for passengers with half-leather Recaro seats and a front-mounted gearbox.
Featuring a mid-mounted engine, the four-wheel drive car even has ties to Formula 1.
Its chassis was designed by F1 designer, Tony Southgate, who worked alongside the engineer, John Wheeler.
The car has been set to be auctioned on Saturday, February 22 at Stoneleigh Park, Coventry.
