Incredibly clean and well-preserved Giugiaro Esprit in near-mint, original condition.This rare LHD car has a 2.2 liter HC (high-compression) engine, which is also in original condition.Originally sold as new in Germany, I purchased the car in Stuttgart in 2009.It is almost certainly the best Giugiaro Esprit in Denmark.

The updated HC model was introduced in early 1987 and boasted among other improvementsover thestandard Esprit an improved cooling system.1987 was the last production year for the iconic Giugiaro-designed Esprit, featured in two James Bond films, making this car an attractive investment for collectors.

Never raced and accident-free, the car is mechanically and electrically sound, and runs beautifully.The car has always been stored in a heated garage and not driven in the rain nor the winter months.The car comes with the original manual and my complete service history.
