About this product
Product Information
Lotus introduced the Type 75 Elite in 1974. Being a full four-seater coupe with an opening glass tailgate, it was designed to carry a family in comfort while retaining Lotus' trademark, excellent road holding and handling. Perhaps most importantly, it was the first - and successful - step in Colin Chapman's plan to move upmarket and away from Lotus' kit car image. The Elite gave rise to two derivatives, the Eclat and the Excel. The Eclat was a restyled coupe version, sacrificing the Elite's unique rear styling and good rear passenger headroom for a more stylish exterior. With its conventional coupe styling, the Eclat was more mainstream than the Elite, and it was in the end the better seller. In turn, the Eclat spawned the Excel, the last of the Elite-inspired family. Matthew Vale looks at the history of these unusual Lotus models, and gives a thorough guide to buying and owning the cars today. AUTHOR: Matthew Vale works part-time in the IT industry and has been writing books on classic ars and motorbikes since 2004. He is the author of 'Lotus Elan - The Complete Story' (2013) and several other titles for Crowood. SELLING POINTS: . A reference guide to the history and development of these unusual Lotus models - the Elise, the Eclat and the Excel. . Of great interest to all motoring enthusiasts and Lotus owners. . Includes information on buying and owning the cars today; specifications; owner's experiences and technical information. .

Item is fine, but delivery was very slow. Ordered on 29th Dec but didn't arrive until 14th Jan. Even allowing for holidays that's way too slow.
