Overview
SBX Cars is proud to offer for sale this 2018 Lotus Evora Sport 410 JPS showing just 34,028 km (21,144 mi) on the odometer at the time of cataloging. Finished in a black metallic and gold John Player Special livery over a black Alcantara interior, this ultra-rare Evora is simply stunning. Retained by its original, enthusiast owner and powered by a 410-horsepower supercharged V6 mounted amidships, this aluminum and carbon fiber-intensive Lotus can hit 60 in less than 4 seconds and has a top speed of nearly 200 mph.
Harkening back to Lotus’ Formula 1 glory days in the 70s and 80s when the British automaker’s racers featured the iconic John Player & Sons black and gold livery, this exclusive Evora Sport 410 is a must-have for the serious Lotus enthusiast. Only five Evoras - 3 left-hand drive and 2 right-hand drive - were made in the JPS version and all for the European market. They were released to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Lotus becoming World Champion with Mario Andretti at the wheel of the Lotus 79, John Player Special.
