Lotus Esprit (Part 2) (5x4)

Air date: Nov 08, 2008

Car freaks Edd and Mike got hold of a used Lotus Esprit for 4,000 euros. Normally you have to shell out a lot more money for such an icon on four wheels. The team in the workshop has to do a lot of work because the car is far from being roadworthy. The interior of the Lotus is completely gone and the engine doesn't run smoothly either. Mechanic Edd therefore decides to completely remove the 2.2 liter model so that he can check it at his leisure on the workbench. The car didn't pass the MOT at the last inspection because the inspectors found a problem with the Lotus's springs. The two car freaks have to get this defect under control as quickly as possible if they want to sell the sports car for a profit.
