AI Listing Summary
This 1989 Lotus Eclat Excel is a stylish and practical 2+2 sports car with a recent service, new cambelt, radiator, fans, brake calipers and pads. While it's described as being in 'good order', its age suggests moderate wear, though the refurbished alloy wheels enhance its appeal.

The car is described as being in 'good order' with white coachwork and beige trim. The presence of refurbished alloy wheels suggests some level of reconditioning. However, the age of the vehicle and the fact that it's being offered at auction implies moderate wear and the need for some reconditioning to bring it to a higher standard.
