- The Esprit's 1987 redesign (X180) was the work of Peter Stevens and, whilst it retained the basic creativity behind the original Giorgetto Giugiaro design, it featured rounder, smoother lines, which helped to reduce the drag coefficient to only 0.33.
- Initially, two models were available the Esprit Turbo at £29,995 and the Normally Aspirated Esprit at £22,995. They were visually indistinguishable externally apart from some minor detail differences
- The NA was powered by a 2174cc in-line 4-cylinder generating 172bhp/163lb.ft and offering 0-60 in 5.5 seconds
- This smart example is finished in Calypso Red and features a tilting and removable sunroof and electric windows.
