The 340R is the answer to the following question: what if you take the famous Lotus philosophy of “simplify and add lightness” to a car that was already designed by Lotus in the first place? The answer is surprisingly impactful. First shown in the 1998, the 340R was a limited edition car based on the Series I Elise. It was even more pared down than the Elise, thanks to the removal of full bodywork, doors, side windows, HVAC system, and roof.

The open wheel bodywork has striking concept car looks but was in fact put in production; a total of 340 examples were built. It was powered by the most powerful version of the Rover K-Series engine, the VHPD (very high power derivative), which produced 177hp, compared to 118hp of the standard engine. This output, coupled with the 1500 pound weight of the 340R made performance quite exciting. The car is track oriented but is fully road legal and quite tractable and streetable, despite being so elemental. Like all 4-cylinder Lotus cars of the period, the 340R was never offered in the United States.

Now that the cars are more than 25 years old, they are legal to import and this example was imported to the United States recently. It was originally ordered on the 28th of September 1999 from Formula One, the main Lotus dealer in Newcastle Upon Tyne, per the included original order form. It was completed on the 4th of March 2000 and is the 131st of 340 examples made (of which 219 were RHD). The extensive documentation shows that the car was first supplied on the 3rd of April 2000 at a total original cost of £35,475 including VAT and road tax. 

The car was at some point relocated to Cyprus, where it was conscientiously maintained at MotoTrend Ltd. in Nicosia, which is the Ferrari and Lotus dealer for the country. The car was imported to the United States once it was 25 years old and has been consistently maintained since. Work performed in the last 12 months has included a new rear main seal (with oil change), new high pressure fuel pump, new fuel tank, new fuel pump, new coil pack and spark plugs, and new ignition wires.

The car has covered more than 2,500km this summer and has proven to be a consistent and hugely fun car. Included with the car are service records and other documentation dating back to new, among which are the original purchase documents and a Lotus Certificate of Vehicle Provenance.
