Lotus 2-Eleven

Hey guys,

I have been looking for a 2-eleven, but I have had no luck. I have found only the track version, but I am looking for the street legal version.

Any ideas where I can find one?

I have also checked with my local lotus dealership but they do not have one.

Thanks

Not street-legal in the States.

Ditto to that. In order to buy one in the U.S. affidavits stating that the car would never be used on the street had to be signed and notorized.
Penalties were stiff including confiscation of the vehicle.

Also, U.S. cars are not equipped with street running gear, ie; lights, horn etc.

How about a nice Caterham or Ariel Atom?

Go with the Caterham, much more user friendly and as track worthy as they come, especially the latest R-500 model.
