Colin Chapman Lotus Esprit S2 and the John Player Team Lotus Cessna 414

Haven’t had a Lotus post for a while so check this out. Colin Chapman with his new Lotus Esprit S2 and the John Player Team Lotus Cessna 414. What a nice combination of vehicles for high speed travel. Of course, this was the heyday of Lotus’s involvement in Formula 1 racing. I wonder whether some rich folk have managed to keep this airplane flying in its’ original livery? Sure would be cool!

On a smaller scale, a 1/43 model is available of the Cessna, the Spark Team Lotus Cessna 414 Chancellor ‘JPS’ 1980 airplane. Gorgi has a gold Lotus Esprit S2 available in 1/43 as well. All we need is the tarmac.
