Historic Lotus 46 For Sale
A reluctant sale due to health problems, As you can see from the photos and the rebuild story in my Lotus 46 book, its been a pretty comprehensive rebuild. The car performs well with rebuilt engine and gearbox, mechanically and body wise it’s perfect. The addition of new carpets would complete the picture. The S1 Europas are now being recognised as being rather special, and would form the basis of a rare classic car, or as a lightweight competition car. The choice is yours,
The car has competed in 3 hillclimbs only
