Huge non negotiable price drop to keep this car in Australia.

The last Lotus 12 sold at auction in the UK around 2012 was chassis no 359 ex - Ivor Bueb. The price achieved was just short of GBP 185,000.00 that at the time = AU$334,000.00

I am offering my very rare & unique 1957 Lotus 12 ( SABAKAT ) FOR SALE. : This car is a credit to Graham Howard, & Tony Caldersmith who had the foresight to rebuild the car after it's 1960 accident. It is period correct to the day, using the original Lotus 12 drawings for this car purchased by Graham from Lotus. The Coventry Climax FPF Twin Cam Motor could be the oldest surviving of it's type in the world, with engine no FPF 430/3/1003 making it the 3rd FPF Motor built & period correct to the month when the original car was built. This motor alone has a story to tell !!!!!!!!!!!!
The car is on button ready to race anywhere in the world, with FIA HTP papers current to 31-12-2029. It also has a full CAMS Historic Log Book & C of D. Included in the price are many valuable spares, tools, original Lotus 12 drawings, & Articles /photo's of the original car as well as the rebuilding of the car as it is today.
This car needs a new Australian custodian. The only genuine offers have come from the UK. Genuine Australian enquiries to purchase phone Mike Gosbell 02 66518141. 0428518141
