Selling or Buying a 1960 Lotus Elite?

1960 Lotus EliteThe Lotus Elite Type 14 was introduced in 1957 and produced from 1958 to 1963 in two series. Up until July 1960, the series 1 model was in production, using Maximar-built bodies. The series 2 featured revised suspension and bodies now made by Bristol plastics, although few series 2 models were still built with the lighter Maximar body. Designed by Peter Kirwan-Taylor, the Lotus Elite wore a simple and elegant body with smooth lines and a very low drag coefficient of 0.29. With its 1.2-liter, straight-four, 75-hp engine, the Lotus Elite was an efficient and popular sports car. The Lotus Elite SE variant introduced in 1960 featured twin SU carburetors, 10 additional hp and an improved ZF gearbox.
