Lotus Sport Exige Cup 260

This month’s new Lotus is the Sport Exige Cup 260...

Lotus Sport Exige Cup 260

Following on from the 2007 Cup, the new car has all the MY08 upgrades (including a new instrument pack and variable traction and launch controls) plus an extra 5bhp, taking the total to 257bhp. At £42,000 the Cup isn’t cheap, but as standard it has four-piston AP Racing front calipers, an FIA roll-cage and adjustable suspension. A track-only version will also be available with options like a dog ’box, a 70-litre fuel cell and no catalysts.
