⭕ VEHICLE SUMMARY

Few cars capture the essence of lightweight British performance quite like the Lotus Europa Twin Cam.

Launched as Lotus’ mid-engined road car for the serious enthusiast, the Europa combined Colin Chapman’s “simplify, then add lightness” philosophy with advanced engineering and unmistakable styling. Low, compact and purposeful, it offered exotic looks with genuine driver-focused dynamics.

This 1971 Twin Cam example perfectly embodies that spirit. Coming from over 8 years with our vendor, it's finished in vibrant yellow over a black interior, presenting as a wonderfully authentic classic Lotus. With its iconic stance, distinctive flying buttress rear pillars and beautifully simple cabin layout, it remains one of the purest expressions of 1970s sports car design.

A charismatic and engaging classic, this Europa offers an experience that modern cars simply cannot replicate.
