The Police(!) Lotus Espirit!

I'm sure some of you have seen this pic before. But I just saw this for the first time. I absolutely love the old espirits. I would become a cop, just so I could drive that. Of course it's an old pic... I'm not sure if it's even real. But I can always dream.

Check out this site (for more weird stuff):

The older Bond cars were nicer. These days all he drives is BMW Z series (blech). Not that i dislike bmw or anything.

He had an Aston Martin Vanquish in the latest one, a BMW Z8 in the previous one, a BMW 5-series in Tomorrow Never Dies, and a Z3 in Goldeneye.

He also had a different one at the beginning of Goldeneye (Older Aston Martin?)

He seems to like BMW

I presume thats a British police car?

The British cop car link is down. But just search for 'police esprit' on google image search and you will find it.

If you're talking about the one in Goldfinger and Thunderball with Sean Connery it was an Aston Martin DB5!
