1989 LOTUS ESPRIT TURBO 48 K MILES.....SELLING NO RESERVE

1989 Lotus Esprit Description

THIS IS A 1989 LOTUS ESPRIT TURBO WITH 48,353 KILOMETERS. I'M LISTING THIS CAR FOR A FRIEND OF MINE WHO IS RETIRING, RELOCATING AND SELLING OFF HIS COLLECTION OF CARS, THIS IS THE LAST OF APPROX 30 VEHICLES.
HE PURCHASED THIS CAR FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER, IT HAS BEEN DRIVEN VERY LITTLE AND BASICALLY IN STORAGE THE LAST 6-8 YEARS.I DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT THESE CARS BUT I CAN TELL YOU IT HAS A 4 CYLINDER TURBOCHARGED ( CHARGE COOLER ) ENGINE, 5 SPEED TRANSMISSION, POWER WINDOWS / MIRRORS, ALPINE STEREO AND MOONROOF.
THE PAINT AND BODY ALL APPEAR TO BE VERY NICE. THE INTERIOR LOOKS GOOD BUT THE CARPET IS SHOWING SOME WEAR ( I ASSUME FROM AGE ) AND THE WOOD DASH HAS SOME CRACKING / DELAMINATION.
THE OWNER HAD A NEW BATTERY INSTALLED, PLUGS, WIRES AND OIL / FILTER CHANGED. THE CAR STARTS AND RUNS BUT IS COLD-BLOODED AND TAKES A WHILE TO WARM UP. I HAVE PERSONALLY DRIVEN THE CAR APPROX 40-50 MILES AND IT RUNS GREAT WHEN TURNING HIGHER RPM'S BUT SEEMS TO RUN A LITTLE ROUGH IN THE 2000-3000 RPM RANGE AND IDLING ESPECIALLY WHEN COLD ( SEEMS LIKE IT'S RUNNING TO RICH / LOADING UP ? ). THE CAR DOES RUNS SMOOTH / TIGHT AND IS VERY FAST BUT WAS A LITTLE UN-COMFORTABLE FOR MY 6'4" FRAME. THE MECHANIC THAT PERFORMED THE TUNE-UP THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE A VACUUM LINE PROBLEM ?
