The Lotus Type 25 race car established Lotus" dominance in Formula 1 racing. Created by Colin Chapman the Type 25 was the very first monocoque racing car ever made. The car ended up losing the championship by one point in its debut year of 1962. In its second year, the Type 25 won both the drivers" and manufacturers" championships.
The Elise Type 25 was built to commemorate this historic race car. The car is painted in Lotus Racing Green with twin metallic yellow stripes running front to back. Unique black Lotus styled six spoke wheels complete the racing look from the exterior.
Red laurels are embroidered onto the headrest of each seat and a Heritage Type 25 ID plate confirms its limited edition status as only 50 of these cars were produced for the UK market. The car was also supplied with both hard top, maintaining the twin stripes, and soft top as standard.
