1982 LOTUS EXCEL
The Type 89 Lotus Excel based on the earlier Lotus Eclat was built from 1982 to 1992. During this period, Toyota became a major shareholder in Lotus, and part of the deal between Lotus and Toyota included the use of many Toyota components in Lotus' cars. To this day, many Toyota engines under two litres bear many characteristics of Lotus engines.
