The thesis

The 240R was the prototype for all supercharged Exiges: 240 hp, Eaton blower, track-focused suspension, and only 50 made. It's one of the rarest modern Lotuses and the first to break the 'Elise with a roof' formula. Values have been flat for years but the 240R is now entering collector consciousness as a limited-run homologation special. Offers genuine rarity and driver involvement in your budget window.
