This scarce Lotus has an original white finish with a black interior, and a complete “I’VE GOT A TIGER IN MY TANK” logo at the rear (usual issue has a metallic blue finish). Driver.
Suspension is fine on shaped spun wheels.

Upon closest scrutiny, you will see a faint outline of racing number label on the bonnet and doors. May be possible to carefully clean off. A couple of rear bumper marks.
