This 2017 Exige Sport 380 is a 1-owner car purchased from the Lotus dealer. This example is a low-mileage GCC spec vehicle with original paint and no known issues.

Lotus has a long reputation for razor-sharp handling, superb steering feel and impressive performance on the track. What makes this Exige 380 special is an intense focus on power, lightness, and aero.

Power: Lotus starts with a 3.5L supercharged and centrally mounted V6. They then tweak the supercharger, recalibrate the ECU, and add an uprated fuel pump and exhaust system. The result is 375hp and a 0-100kph time of just 3.5 seconds.

Lightness: Lotus makes liberal use of carbon fibre for the bumpers/clam cover, roof, tailgate, sports seats and more. Forged aluminium wheels and AP racing brakes shave off the remaining kilos. All in this featherweight tips the scales at just 1,100 kg.
