Scalextric Lotus Esprit 2 World Championship Commemorative Model 1:32 Slot Race Car C4253,Black

The Lotus Esprit S1, released in 1976, is known for its polygonal 'folded paper' like design but was ultimately made famous when it was driven by MI6 Special Agent, 007 James Bond, in the 1977 hit movie 'The Spy Who Loved Me' starring Roger Moore as Bond. Sporting a lightweight body and superb handling, the car was considered underpowered and not up to its potential. In 1978, the revised Series 2 was released. Featuring external design changes as well as upgraded seats, gauges and switches. In 1978, the Lotus Formula One Team won the World Championship, and to celebrate, released the Lotus Esprit S2 in the same black and gold as their winning car, announcing its Commemorative Edition to promote their accomplishments in both race and street cars.
