What is the price of a used Lotus Europa?

Currently, the prices for a pre-owned Lotus Europa start at £21,995 and go up to £34,995.

There are five primary factors that decides what a used Lotus Europa costs: the year of the car, engine size and performance, the car's fuel consumption, how many miles the car has travelled not to mention the equipment level of the car.

For example, a newer model with fewer miles recorded, or a more luxurious variant with a powerful engine, typically commands a higher price than, for example, an older car without special equipment and with many kilometres behind it.

Is the Lotus Europa available in different fuel variants?

The Lotus Europa is available with just one fuel type, petrol. There are currently four cars available at an average price of £25,248.

Before deciding on a fuel type to buy, we highly recommend taking some time to consider your current driving habits. How many miles do you typically drive each week? Are your drives mostly short trips, or do you tend to embark on longer routes?

If your trips are mostly short, electric, plug-in hybrid or petrol may make the most sense. For daily long-distance driving, the electric car is often ideal - especially with a charger at home or at work. For longer daily commutes, a modern electric car is often suitable - especially if you can charge at home or at work. If you often drive long distances and can't charge, diesel can still be a viable option. Keep in mind that diesel engines with high emissions have been banned from entering cities in a range of countries.

Will the Lotus Europa come in different body types?

The Lotus Europa exists in two different body types; coupe and hatchback, with the coupe being the preferred option. The coupe body style is synonymous with elegance and sporty performance. Its chassis is often more taut and robust compared to a saloon or SUV. Ideal for those without children and favouring light travel, coupés in the UK typically come at a premium compared to their equivalent saloon or hatchback variants.
