This exciting AC was purchased by the late Jonathan Stevens from Duncan Hamilton & Co Ltd on the 8th July 2002. The only registered former keeper was the Brooklands-based AC Car Group Ltd, which owned and used the car from new until it was sold to Duncan Hamilton & Co Ltd in 2000, when the mileage was 18602. There is a letter from the AC Car Group Limited present in the file confirming this information.
This two seat hand-built roadster is powered by a Lotus Esprit V8 twin turbo engine, producing some 350bhp, coupled to a six speed gearbox, delivering a stunning performance. Such is the tractability of the Ace Lotus Prototype that it is equally comfortable being driven purposefully or in a more docile manner…
Finished in Ebony metallic with tan leather upholstery, the AC is supplied with a detachable hardtop. The motor car has been well maintained and cherished since 2002.
The large history file contains numerous invoices, MOT test certificates, images, the V5C registration certificate and the old V5 document. The Lotus Esprit handbook and factory workshop manual also included in the file were purchased by Mr Stevens due to the car being powered by a Lotus Esprit V8 engine.
