Lotus hit the big time with the Esprit. As the company moved from a racing and kitcar business, to a producer of quality, world-class supercars, it would change forever. Giugiaro's design exercise 'Silver Car' was adapted for the wedgy styling, and the backbone chassis carried a 2-litre 16V Lotus 4-cylinder. So it was very much a Lotus interpretation of a supercar. Well marketed (especially as a Bond car), the original car was developed rapidly through several versions - each addressing specific shortcomings (torque, cooling, reliability etc). The S3 is a sweet spot, but the S1 is the glamour model!
