This 2000 model year, left hand drive Lotus 340R is number 286 of 340 built, of which reportedly only 40 were left hand drive. Only a handful of cars were ever imported to the United States when new. We believe our car was imported privately, some time later.
Our Lotus 340R features the desirable factory 190 HP kit, an optional oil cooler, throttle body injection, and is presented in its original livery of silver and metallic black with blue interior. The car weighs approximately 1,450lbs and has been driven a total of 3,300 miles from new.
In the early 2000’s, the car was owned by Isaac Jacobson of Mapleton, Utah. At the time 286/340 was not road legal, but Mr. Jacobson successfully registered and titled the car in 2007. Not much is known about 286/340 from then until July 2022, when the car ended up in the hands of a Florida car dealer. We bought the car from that dealer in February 2025.
Prior to us purchasing the car, extensive servicing was carried about by Supercar Mechanic of Deerfield Beach, Florida (2022). At about the same time, the seats and steering wheel pad were professionally retrimmed in blue suede by Dream Up Interiors of Pompano Beach. Once we received the car into inventory, we carried out a multi-point inspection resulting in the installation of a new brake master cylinder and a new fuel filler neck connecting and breather pipe. The car is now running and driving perfectly and needs nothing.
Lotus 340R 286/340 is supplied with one key, a factory assembly manual, a battery tender, service/repair invoices and a 340R owner’s pouch containing factory books.
