Scalextric Lotus Esprit S1 ICS Motorsports #11 Silverstone 1981 1:32 Analog Slot Car

The Lotus Esprit S1, released in 1976, is known for its polygonal 'folded paper' like design, but it was ultimately made famous when it was driven by MI6 Special Agent, 007 James Bond, in the 1977 hit movie 'The Spy Who Loved Me' starring Roger Moore as Bond. While Gerry Marshall, Big Gerry, considered one of the best drivers of all time, was mainly associated with Vauxhalls, the king of club racing, he also piloted this attractive Lotus Esprit S1 during some modified production car races in the early 1980s. Sporting a lightweight body and superb handling, the car was considered underpowered and not up to its potential. This attractive car is now a great addition to any classic GT grid of 80s supercars! While the car was quick, it suffered from reliability issues, including issues with the brakes.
