It only takes a few years for cars to look dated, but when you look at this pic of a Lotus Esprit it is difficult to believe its design is now 20 years old.
I guess great design doesn't go out of date and one of the best-looking Esprits is arguably the V8, which was also one of the last.
Let's hope its long-awaited successor looks just as good when it arrives in two years time.
