1979 Lotus – Steelbro Super Seven Mk4 – 3051 / Lotus twincam engine nr. 32559.

Equipped with the Lotus 1600cc twincam engine with Weber carburetors for approx. 128hp. 4-speed manual transmission; live rear axle.

Interior is in excellent shape – leather seats / carpets / dash / gauges all fantastic shape.

Body is in lovely condition with bare aluminum panels contrasting nicely with the green cycle fenders and caps.A few minor blemishes in the paint visible on close examination.

In 1973 assembly of the Super 7 moved from Lotus to two constructors – Caterham in the UK & Steelbro (Steel Brothers) in New Zealand. The agreement between Lotus and Caterham allowed Caterham to take-over production of new cars as once assembly of these Lotus cars was completed. This particular car is amongst the latest LOTUS Seven constructed (as opposed to Caterham) and in a nice specification with S3 classic cycle-fenders instead of the typical Mk4 fiberglass bodywork.

Super Sevens of all varieties are worth considering – thrilling performance / efficient / a lot fun to drive. This is a great value for a very usable classic.

$25,500USD FOB Chiba, Japan. Preparing for container shipment to Seattle, WA – expect October shipment for November arrival. Special pre-arrival price includes all import fees and WA title.
