Description

Lotus Europe (1972) – British sports car in good condition after older restoration
This Lotus Europe, first registered on May 4, 1972, underwent an older restoration and retains its original specifications. With its striking orange paint and lightweight design, it represents British engineering from the 1970s at its best. Equipped with a manual gearbox and rear-wheel drive, this sporty coupé delivers an authentic driving experience.
