As enthusiast of Lotus cars, the Esprit has been the center piece road vehicle of the brands. The Esprit was introduced to the market in 1976 and was an evolution that ended in 2004. Lotus is much more the a company that made one special car, they were know for racing, handling, and advanced technology engineering. The following are a couple of period films of the brand. A factory tour and how the company was all about advancing.

Journey back in time to Hethel, in 1984. A factory tour. Mainly on the Esprit. See how they made these great cars. This is the full version, from two parts I linked and edited the start. If only I could go back in time.

Just the bit about Lotus special suspension edited from an old Top Gear episode. Lotus Turbo Esprit seen hurtling around the circuit at Hethel. Standard version & special suspension equiped version. Some fantatstic film of a pure drivers car. Question: Being quite tall, how does John Mills actually fit in the car?
