1992 Lotus Espirit SE

Prixvo’s Position

The 1992 Lotus Esprit SE, finished in Silk Red Metallic (A73), is a remarkable example of British sports car engineering, combining innovative design with exhilarating performance. Known for its iconic appearances in James Bond films, the Esprit gained fame for both its unique styling and dynamic driving experience. This particular Esprit SE, powered by a 2.2-liter turbocharged inline-4 engine, represents a well-maintained and historically significant model with its original specifications intact, and is one of two known in the UAE.

Originally delivered to Ali Gargash & Company in the United Arab Emirates, this Esprit SE retains its factory and metallic paint, and a custom beige and maroon plaid interior. The seller states that the car was fully rebuilt and recommissioned by Lotus specialists in Dubai, ensuring it remains in excellent condition. At Prixvo, we are proud to offer this iconic and beautifully preserved piece of automotive history.
