Roger Becker was the legendary Lotus Director of Vehicle Engineering who was with the company for no fewer than 44 years. Sadly he's no longer with us but he left an indelible mark on the industry with a legacy not just in the way that Lotus cars drive, but also the many cars that were influenced through the company's consultancy work. Of course, he'll also be remembered for driving the white Esprit in The Spy Who Loved Me, stepping in to provide some visual excitement when the film's stunt team struggled to overcome the car's natural poise and grip. To mark his retirement in 2010, the company released a pair of 'RGB' special editions wearing his signature and with a generous specification, both the Sports and Touring equipment packs coming as standard. Other additions included forged lightweight wheels, air conditioning and a numbered plaque. The Elise and Exige bearing his name also had the distinction of being the last cars from Hethel with the supercharged version of the Toyota 2ZZ VVTL-I 1.8. In the Elise it's in a 217hp state of tune which is good enough for a 0-60 time of 4.3 seconds. In many ways it's the ultimate specification for the S3 Elise and, as such, they are highly sought after. This particular car is in immaculate condition with full service from Bell & Coville. The MOT is up in August, but has only had a few hundred miles since the last service & MOT. I would be happy to provide a fresh MOT upon agreeing the right price for the car. This car is incredible & I am really sorry to see it go, unfortunately I just don't have the time to drive it anymore.
