Please note, our replica lotus 23 sports car can be specified to be fully road legal and track competitive ! 

 

...Note that the roll bar brace - which intrudes into the passenger compartment - is fully removable, allowing ample room for a second seat to be fitted... 

        

                          ...as shown here on our show model...

                              

...Our demonstrator vehicle is fitted with a flat-four Alfa Romeo boxer engine.  This engine is ideal due to its low profile as illustrated below...

...which helps the car to maintain its beautiful original lines and legendary handling qualities...

The suspension supplied consists of upper and lower fabricated  tubular wishbones with AVO or equivalent adjustable coil-over-spring damper unit, supporting factory modified Sierra uprights.  Race-spec wishbone pivot points are supported on proprietary rose joints.  Wishbones are degreased and supplied in primer finish.   The rear suspension features upper and lower  wishbones with adjustable toe-in and camber.   Again with AVO or equivalent adjustable coil-over-spring damper unit, supporting factory modified Sierra hubs attached to Martyni fabricated box section uprights.

The bodywork supplied comprises of a two piece laminated glass fibre construction, authentic in size and detail to the original Lotus 23 shape.  Laid up to a minimum thickness of 4mm, with matting and coremat where necessary, and supplied from the moulds in grey gelcoat.   

The transparencies consist of a front section, and two side sections moulded to correct original Lotus 23 design from 5mm transparent polycarbonate  sheet, joined as the original design to form a continuous wind deflector, also included are transparencies to cover the headlights.
