Publisher`s Notes:
Since the shock unveiling of the Lotus Elise at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 1995, the little Lotus has ploughed its own furrow through the market that it helped to revive. The Elise proved equally happy on the road or the track, and its instant cult status turned a limited-run fun car into a full production model. As its rivals have grown heavy, laden with ever-bigger engines and more luxury, so Lotus has continued to keep its revolutionary roadster ahead of the game by going back to its core principles of performance through innovation and light weight. This book takes you behind the scenes of the Elise`s inception, creation and launch, told through the eyes of the multi-talented team that steered its development. It follows the model`s evolution and expansion into a whole range of thrilling, driver-orientated sports cars - including the Exige, 340R, 2-Eleven and Europa - plus meets the owners and guides potential purchasers through the minefield of buying second-hand.
