The rear louvers on this car are an aftermarket item that rest on top of the factory rear hatch glass. They are hinged and can be lifted for cleaning. The chromed door handles were used on S1, S2, and S2.2 Esprits.

Hello,

Lotus Esprit collector here. Can confirm this is an S1. The vents are clearly not there, and the plain white 'esprit' decal like that only appeared on an S1. The rear louvers on this car are an aftermarket item that rest on top of the factory rear hatch glass. They are hinged and can be lifted for cleaning. The chromed door handles were used on S1, S2, and S2.2 Esprits.
