brooke 260 RR cosworth

Thanks. Bell and Colvill could certainly help I'm sure. Failing that you could contact Lotus or Classic Team Lotus themselves.

Hello All,

I've got one in the same colours, an ME190 in the Lotus green and yellow. It's a little bit special as it's got a Honda Type-R lump with upgraded Spoons ECU, V-Tec controller in the dash etc.
Engine is astonishing and is a match made in heaven in the Brooke chassis. Far superior to the Ford and Vauxhall options in my opinion.
It's been my favourite toy for many years, and I own a lot more than my fair share.
However, having recently got married, and with a baby on the way, this spring has become one huge clear out. So this, along with pretty much everything I own and enjoy it seems, is going up for sale imminently

That's interesting. Is it the 200bhp Civic Type R engine or the more powerful S2000 one?

What sort of price would you be looking at? I'm probably selling my 2-Eleven to buy a single seater and go back to racing, but that's just a 'probably' at the moment...
