AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
GENERAL:
The Lotus Super Seven S2 is a legendary lightweight sports car designed by Colin Chapman, celebrated for embodying the philosophy of simplifying and adding lightness. This particular 1967 kit was sold in 1971 by Joop Donkervoort, the famous Lotus importer who later founded Donkervoort Automobielen in 1978. Adapted by Donkervoort before his own model production began, this Series 2 features a chassis that is longer and wider than the standard English version, making it comfortable even for drivers over 1.85 meters tall. Built meticulously by Mr. Nolte, who thoroughly documented every step and component, this car weighs a mere 560 kg and delivers an incredible go-kart driving feel.
BODYWORK & PAINT:
The exterior shows an authentic patina that reflects the vehicle's age, with visible stone chips and minor marks from over the years. The Revolution alloy wheels have been recently restored.
TECHNICAL:
Powered by a specially prepared and tuned 1600cc twin-cam engine producing 125 bhp, providing an unbelievable power-to-weight ratio. The car recently underwent a major service that included a complete cylinder head rebuild with new inlet and outlet valves, a new radiator, distributor cap, spark plugs, expansion tank, a full carburetor rebuild, and an overall overhaul of the braking system.
INTERIOR:
The interior displays gentle aging consistent with the vehicle's history. The car comes equipped with a tonneau cover as well as a brand new, unused soft top.
DOCUMENTS:
Includes full documentation of the build process and components used by Mr. Nolte. The original purchase invoice written and signed by Joop Donkervoort is present and included in the sale. The vehicle is exempt from technical inspection.
COLLECTION:
Available for pickup in Sant Just Desvern, located in the Baix Llobregat region, province of Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain.
OTHER INFORMATION:
A truly unique historical bridge between Lotus and Donkervoort heritage, offering pure, uninterrupted driving enjoyment best experienced with the top off.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
