Yes, you read that right.
A 1981 Lotus Esprit Series 3 Turbo that was the personal car of Lotus founder Colin Chapman, is for sale at Surrey-based dealer Mark Donaldson.
The metallic silver car with a red-leather interior was also the first Esprit to be fitted with BBS alloys and, anecdotally, it was driven by then-Lotus Formula One driver Elio de Angelis.
And this car has yet more claims to fame. It was registered on 1 August 1981 and just four days later none other than then-Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher drove it – of which there is photographic proof (see below).
