This Lotus Exige S 260 is powered by 257 bhp, factory supercharged 1.8 liter, Mid-mounted inline 4-cylinder with DOHC & Variable Valve Timing and lift intelligence. The S 260 was set up from the factory to be a track weapon with a lightweight flywheel, lightweight racing battery, double adjustable Ohlins dampers with remote reservoirs, Torsen limited slip differential, and Accusump oil accumulator unit.

As part of the “Sector 111” community, the Exige was fitted with the following Sector 111 components: Larini sport exhaust, transmission cables, tow hook, baffled oil pan and motor mount inserts. The Exige is also fitted with Schroth racing seat belts (behind the seats with factory shoulder belts still in place).

This Exige S 260 is one of the last Exige models to enter the USA since their being discontinued for importation in 2011. These Exige S 260 models (already iconic) have become highly sort after. With values now on the rise, excellent examples such as this collector owned and cared for S 260, an example which has only covered 7,000 miles since new have become a very rare find, especially in this desirable color combination!

It is head turning in presence and complete with performance and handling that has become synonymous Lotus Motorsport and their winning pedigree of racing cars.
