2001 Opel Speedster 2.2

Opel Speedster / Vauxhall VX220 2.2 – 180 hp – Quantum Suspension – Exceptional Unit

A very special Opel Speedster / Vauxhall VX220, developed and manufactured by Lotus in Hethel. Only 7,207 units were produced. One of the purest and most sought-after modern sports cars, with a clear upward trend in value and increasingly difficult to find in this condition.

Aluminum chassis, mid-mounted engine, and a weight of only 945 kg. Absolutely pure driving sensations, comparable to the Lotus Elise and Exige, but with a level of preparation far superior to most currently available examples.

This unit has been enhanced without compromising on quality, with a complete, balanced, and reliable setup, producing approximately 180 hp and delivering exceptional dynamic performance.

Highlights include:

• High-performance Quantum Racing suspension

• Conversion to original Lotus Exige hubs and wheels in matte black

• Engine tuned with Piper Cams camshafts, optimized cylinder head, and custom ECU tuning

• Chris Tullett exhaust manifold and performance exhaust system

• Reinforced clutch and lightweight flywheel

• Aluminum radiator

• Lotus Motorsport short shifter and cables

• Upgraded brakes with braided steel lines and high-performance pads

This car offers a level of performance, precision, and feel far superior to the original Speedster, while maintaining excellent reliability.

This meticulously maintained example features top-of-the-line components and an ideal setup for both performance driving and collecting.

The Speedster is already considered a benchmark youngtimer, and its value continues to rise. Finding an example with this level of preparation, condition, and quality is increasingly difficult. This advertisement is not binding, may contain errors, and is for informational purposes only.
