It started with the original Europa and continued up until the Esprit turned into a sort of Frankenstein's monster of a car so it could meet ever tougher safety and smog regs. I still think the idea of a sports car with no superfluous weight and/or parts is a timeless idea. Too bad these cars looked so good but were as fragile as crepe paper.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Howard Kerr]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 16th 2006 12:57PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on eBay Find of the Day: Lotus Esprit from Bond's "For Your Eyes Only"]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2006/05/16/ebay-find-of-the-day-lotus-esprit-from-bond-s-for-your-eyes-on/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2006/05/16/ebay-find-of-the-day-lotus-esprit-from-bond-s-for-your-eyes-on/</guid><description><![CDATA["Seems like the perfect winter beater for the obnoxiously wealthy."<br><br>What a nice way to say, "go kill yourself you rich bastards!"

Reliable daily driver if you keep it up, try asking that of most exotic cars. Never left me walking, don't believe all stereotypes, they were mostly sorted out by the time the turbos were made. <br><br>Bought mine for 1/25th their initial bid though a four years ago, but seems like interest in the new Elise etc. drummed up prices since then, though not quite by a premium of $240k unfortunately for current owners:D <br><br>Beautiful car though. Can't wait for the new Esprit. Gotta love Lotus.<br><br>Slade]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Slade]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 16th 2006 1:50PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on eBay Find of the Day: Lotus Esprit from Bond's "For Your Eyes Only"]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2006/05/16/ebay-find-of-the-day-lotus-esprit-from-bond-s-for-your-eyes-on/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2006/05/16/ebay-find-of-the-day-lotus-esprit-from-bond-s-for-your-eyes-on/</guid><description><![CDATA[Slade, you are a *very* lucky man...
