The vendor has provided the following:


The GS Europa was a result of a collaboration between William Towns (who later designed the Aston Martin Lagonda) and Mike Rawlings of GS Cars, Lotus’ Bristol dealership, in 1974.

Colin Chapman gave the re-bodied GS design his blessing and approved its use of Lotus badging.

The first converted example featured on The Daily Telegraph styling stand at the Earls Court Motor Show in 1975 at Chapman’s suggestion when it was unclear if the new Esprit would be ready in time.
