Very few reviewers can convey the excitement and adrenalin rush of driving a true sports car. Harry is one of those few.

Lovely car. Colin Chapman was very crafty in how he got the Esprit into the bond film. He parked one outside of EON's offices in London.

Owned an 87 HCi for two years. Beautiful car, but holy smokes, the care and feeding was unreal.

In terms of look, i definitely prefer this than the 90s and early 2000 Esprit.. may be because it carries the Bond flair along with it

I own a 1983 Delorean and have always wanted her sister as well. It is amazing how closely they resemble each other. It makes sense however, being that they were developed and designed at the exact same time by the exact same people.<br><br>Just wish the DMC got a better engine. Shame that DMC went under just before the turbo could be released in 1984. 0-60 under 5 seconds as opposed to the usual 9 seconds.

Colin Chapman is an automotive legend. Sorely missed.
