Congrats to all Lotus Espirit fans, no doubt they'll love these models! 😀  As always John, I enjoy your "MT history"  segments.

Great looking models. I note the black base, not included with my earlier SMTS models though the box remains the same.

Prior to the S4, AUTOart did a really nice diecast S3. In this case a 1982 Turbo Espirit S3 from about 2003 or so. I gave a mere $17 for it though I forgot where. The metallic pearl paint really sets it off. Note the radiator fan detail visible underneath the front end.

Great cars! I loved the old Lotus Europa as a kid and those different Esprits are great! 😎
