The 1989 Lotus Eclat Excel, often simply called the Lotus Excel, was a refined evolution of the earlier Eclat, offering improved reliability, build quality, and performance. Powered by a 2.2 litre Lotus-built inline-four producing around 160hp, it featured rear-wheel drive and a near-perfect weight distribution. The Excel boasted a lightweight fiberglass body over a galvanised steel chassis, delivering sharp handling and excellent road feel. With styling influenced by Giugiaro and a practical 2+2 layout, it balanced sportscar agility with everyday usability. Though often overlooked, the 1989 Excel represents Lotus’s commitment to driver engagement and engineering excellence during the era.
Originally registered in January 1989, this stylish Lotus is both good looking and practical benefitting as it does from rear seats. The white coachwork is in good order as is the beige trim. The look of the car is enhanced by colour coding, a glass sunroof and refurbished alloy wheels. This Lotus has benefitted from a full service including a new cambelt, a new radiator and fans, new brake calipers and brake pads We are told that this Lotus is fun to drive. Offered to auction with a V5 registration document and various bills and receipts, this well priced Lotus should easily find a new home. Consigned by Dominic Lake
