Lotus LV 240 Engine Leaflet (1969)

This double-sided leaflet for the Lotus LV240 engine is about as rare as the engine itself. The dhoc power-unit was developed by Lotus for use in the Type 62 Sports Racer that is pictured on the reverse side of the 12×9-inch leaflet. Based on a Vauxhall engine block the all-Lotus power unit would go on to form the basis of the 907 series of engines used in the Elite, Esprit and Eclat launched in 1975/76.
