James Bond continued his association with Lotus in For Your Eyes Only, driving this copper coloured Lotus Esprit Turbo in the latter half of the film. Featuring two pairs of skis mounted to the roof, this striking vehicle stands out against the snowy slopes when Bond's mission to retrieve a stolen missile targeting system takes him to the Italian Alps. The Lotus Esprit Turbo, introduced in 1980, marked a significant performance leap for the iconic wedge-shaped sports car. Featuring a 2.2-liter turbocharged inline-four engine, it produced around 210 horsepower and delivered 0 - 60 mph in under 6 seconds. The Turbo retained the Esprit's lightweight handling dynamics while adding sharper aerodynamics, including a distinctive rear spoiler and redesigned front and rear fascias. It gained fame in For Your Eyes Only (1981) as another James Bond car. With improved performance, bold styling, and true driver engagement, the Esprit Turbo solidified Lotus's reputation for producing agile, exotic sports cars with race-bred engineering. © Copyright 2003-2025 The Flying Mule, Inc.
