AI Listing Summary
This is a rare Lotus Sport 300, number 42 of only 64 built, and one of just five originally sold in France. It has low mileage (52,770 km) and is finished in dark green with a beige leather interior. The car will need recommissioning before being driven on public roads.
Condition

The car is described as being in well-preserved condition with low mileage (52,770 km). However, it has been part of a museum display with limited use in recent years and requires servicing and recommissioning. There's also a note about a minor administrative mistake on the title. These factors suggest a condition that is better than average but not excellent due to the need for recommissioning.
