Title: Another overly expensive TCS listed in the UK.
Post by: Dreamer on Sunday,May 11, 2025, 09:09:26 AM

Personally, I much prefer this car over the JPS at UK Sports Cars.Tthis car has documented Lotus history plus a knock-out colour combo. Plus, its two grand less. I know, it hasn’t had a major restoration but if I understand the ad correctly, this car is all original.
Of note, this car does not have the “Championship” emblems on the sides. Being the last TCS built and sold as a 1975 it should have had the six year version with 1973 in the laurel wreath, wouldn’t you think? Perhaps it had a respray and is not all original…

Very nice car! I suppose the PO took those plates off the B-pillar for a cleaner look. That would require filling in the holes so it was on purpose (unless they were left off at the factory?? Seems unlikely.). Probably one of the best unrestored Europas I've seen!
