The second St Tropez finalized in light blue metallic was ready in spring 1990 for the promotion session PBB got started then. The roadster was appearing in a couple of publications in early nineties car magazines and Esprit books and the PBB “St Tropez Spyder conversion” sales brochure.

 

It was made out of a 1983 TurboEsprit S3 with an hc engine fitted. Wheelarches front and aft are widened. Five spoke three piece Compomotive rims in 7x16” and 10x16” with wider rubbers give the car a unique feature. Rim design was adapted from the Ferrari 308.

 

Paul Bailey owned the convertible a couple of years himself before he sold it to an enthusiast, who took care for a very long time. The car left UK as nobody there picked up the opportunity while this rare beast was up for sale on a Club Lotus Meeting in Donington Park.
