The Excel Celebration is a rare and distinctive British sports car that combines elegant styling, excellent handling and impressive engineering. Produced by Lotus, the Excel was developed from the earlier Eclat and featured a lightweight body, a front-mounted 2.2-litre four-cylinder engine and a rear-wheel-drive layout. The Celebration was introduced to mark the end of Excel production, making it a particularly special model for enthusiasts and collectors. It featured a higher specification, including leather upholstery, luxurious interior trim and distinctive alloy wheels, giving it a more exclusive feel than standard examples. Thanks to its lightweight construction, well-balanced chassis and precise steering, the Excel delivers an engaging driving experience on winding country roads. Its five-speed manual gearbox and responsive engine provide enjoyable performance, while the comfortable cabin makes longer journeys equally appealing. The exterior styling reflects the clean, angular design of the late 1980s and early 1990s, with a sleek profile and distinctive pop-up headlights.
Originally registered on 15th April 1991, this Lotus Excel Celebration presents exceedingly well in green with a tan leather interior. As the second car manufactured from a highly exclusive, limited production run of just 40 units, this vehicle represents a rare opportunity for collectors. It has been incredibly well looked after throughout its life, a fact backed by 36 services and documented in two large files of paperwork that date back to when the car was brand new. The current owner has continued this maintenance work with diligence, executing a comprehensive series of upgrades under his stewardship. This recent work includes the installation of a stainless steel exhaust, a new clutch, new engine and gearbox mounts, a complete suspension overhaul, a new radiator, new track rod ends, steering gaiters, and four fresh tyres. This highly cherished example is a true testament to the care of both its current and previous owners. Offered with genuine everyday usability and superb sporting character, the car is supplied complete with a V5 registration document, a current MoT test certificate valid until 21st March 2027, original handbooks, a service book in its wallet, a jack and the factory toolkit.Consigned by Stewart Banks
