- Restored by Agamemnom in 2022
- One of only 320 RHD Carltons built
- Car number 874

A rare opportunity to own one of Britain's most iconic performance saloons. First registered on 20th May 1993, this original UK-market Lotus Carlton has had just 4 registered keepers, with the current owner since 1998.

Professionally restored in 2022 by renowned Lotus Carlton specialist Agamemnon, with invoices totalling over £8,000 and a CD of restoration photos included. Presented in its original Imperial Green with factory-standard specification throughout.

Powered by Lotus' legendary 3.6-litre twin-turbo straight-six producing 377bhp, these hand-built cars took around 130 hours each to complete. Only 320 RHD Carlton-badged examples were produced, making them highly collectible.

The car presents well throughout, with straight bodywork, refurbished factory alloys (2015), original black leather interior, factory radio/cassette and CD changer. The only notable cosmetic issue is the headlining, and some fibre glass repairs under the arches which requires attention.

V5C, Factory handbooks, Service history from 2,170 miles onwards, Restoration documentation

The previous MOT was advisory-free, with no structural concerns noted. An increasingly rare, investment-grade modern classic offering raw analogue performance and one of the greatest super saloons ever built - in our opinion.
