The John Player Team Lotus holdall celebrates the Lotus type 72, one of the most striking Formula 1 cars ever to have graced the track. As well as being a triumph of technical excellence the 72 looked stunning in its iconic black and gold colour scheme.
In 1972, at the 43rd Italian Grand Prix, despite starting from a lowly grid position, Emerson Fittipaldi came through to take victory and win the race and the Championship, with the racing number 6. Emerson clinched the World F1 Drivers Title with 61 points. Furthemore John Player Team Lotus won the World Championship of Constructors in a fantastic year for the British Team.

Active suspension and Ayrton's first (of six) Monaco GP victories make the Camel Team Lotus era worth celebrating; at least every Lotus Elise 99T owner should have a Camel Team Lotus polo shirt.

Memories of Ronnie Peterson is a book full of recollections by, and pictures of, people who in one way or another were a part of Ronnie Peterson's successful racing career, either on the sidelines or wheel to wheel.
Tommy Peterson treats us to some early episodes in his brother's life and several of Ronnie's friends and associates from the Formula 1 circus share some more personal memories than have ever been published before. Emerson Fittipaldi, Mario Andretti, Sir Jackie Stewart, Max Mosley, Robin Herd, Kenny Brack, Reine Wisell, Eje Elgh, Alan Henry and Fredrik af Petersens are some of the 47 contributors. And don't miss out on the fantastic story about when Ronnie lapped two, very surprised, drivers while going backwards!

Classic Team Lotus is pleased to see and support the success of the Ronnie Peterson Museum in Orebro, Ronnie’s home town. All proceeds from the sale of this wonderful book will be passed on to the museum. Amongst the Team Lotus mechanics, Ronnie is the favourite of many. Evidently he was bloody quick and a really nice and straightforward gentleman.

This car was driven by Donnelly and Herbert in the 1990 Grand Prix season.
The type 102 was fitted with the Lamborghini V12 and is the only Formula One Lotus to have raced with a twelve cylinder engine.
This comes with a certificate of authenticity and an engraved plaque.
To purchase this end plate or for more information please contact the team on team@classicteamlotus.co.uk
This is from the car that Nelson Piquet drove in the 1989 Grand Prix Season.
Piquet finished 4th in Canada, Britain and Japan, with team mate Nakajima scoring a memorable 4th place at Adelaide in atrocious weather conditions.
The best way to psyche out the opposition on the grid. If they did not know already, this will make it clear they are racing against a professional.

Team Lotus and Tamiya have enjoyed a long and fruitful relationship that has resulted in iconic scale model kits of the great Lotus F1 cars.
The type 78 is one of these and Classic Team Lotus was delighted when Tamiya chose recently to re-issue this excellent kit in 1/12th scale, complete with the addition of a number of photo etched parts that make the end result even more impressive.
The period research was done in exhaustive detail, at a time when the team was keen to keep its ‘Ground Effect’ secrets firmly under wraps. However, such was the trust between the two companies that unrestricted access was granted. (We must admit that, on occasions, we have referred to Tamiya kits when undertaking restorations, even though we have the surviving cars and all the original design drawings!)
The model ‘builds’ brilliantly well, assuming you are not all thumbs when it comes to modeling glue and water film decals.
Please send us an image of the finished article, in all its glory.
1/20th resin kit by Studio 27
Our enthusiastic friends at Studio 27 have done a great job to create fine models of so many of the Team Lotus F1 cars that have not been modeled by others.
The twin chassis type 88 was Colin Chapman’s last radical F1 design and is a prime example of where lateral thinking can lead to. Sadly it became the subject of much legal wrangling which led to, ultimately, the controversial banning of the 88B.
Team Lotus took the 88 to the USA (Long Beach), Brazil and Argentine Grand Prix, but it was not allowed to race.
As a resin kit this model requires a fairly high level of modeling skill. Studio 27 were kind enough to provide us with a built kit and we can advise that the end result can be very impressive; it is up to you!
Excellent value for money diecast model of the Lotus Ford type 49 as raced by Graham Hill in the 1968 South African GP.
This race is most often remembered as being Jim Clark’s final GP win and the last appearance for the Team Lotus green and yellow livery before Gold Leaf Team Lotus was introduced.
Also it was a one-two finish for the team with Graham coming in second and scoring six vital points that would prove to be the foundation for an extremely closely contested second World Championship title for the 1962 Champion.
Who was the greatest racing driver of them all?
The special skills that have been needed to master Grand Prix cars have varied so widely, over the course of more than a century that this question cannot be answered. Yet it is often asked. And the name of Jim Clark is always mentioned.
The wonderful images in this book chart the career of Jim Clark. It truly is a tribute to one of the greatest racing car drivers the world has ever seen.
