Hilton & Moss are excited to present another fantastic Lotus Evora GT430 at our showrooms. The most powerful road-legal Lotus ever made. A pure expression of British engineering, lightweight performance and driving precision.

Produced in strictly limited numbers (60 cars worldwide, and just 25 for the UK) and widely regarded as the ultimate evolution of the Evora platform, the GT430 represents the pinnacle of Lotus’ lightweight engineering philosophy. Developed with an uncompromising approach to performance, this is a car engineered for the purist. Visceral, analogue and utterly intoxicating from behind the wheel.

At its heart sits a 3.5-litre supercharged and charge-cooled V6, producing a commanding 430bhp and 325lb-ft of torque. Mated to a precise six-speed manual gearbox and limited-slip differential, the GT430 delivers a truly engaging driving experience, propelling the car from 0-60 mph in approximately 3.7 seconds and onward to a 190mph top speed. The soundtrack, amplified through its titanium exhaust system, is every bit as thrilling as the performance itself.

True to Lotus ethos, weight saving was paramount in the GT430’s development. Extensive carbon fibre bodywork, including the front splitter, roof panel, rear quarter panels and imposing rear wing, all contribute to a remarkably low dry weight of 1,258kg. The advanced aerodynamic package generates up to 250kg of downforce at maximum speed, delivering immense stability and confidence at pace.

Underneath, Ohlins TT-X two-way adjustable dampers, Eibach springs and Michelin Pilot Sport tyres ensure razor-sharp turn-in and exceptional composure. Steering feel is tactile and immediate and the chassis beautifully communicative. A reminder of why Lotus remains revered by driving enthusiasts worldwide.

The interior continues the purposeful theme, trimmed in Alcantara and carbon fibre, with lightweight sports seats providing superb support. Every element is driver-focused, free from unnecessary distraction, reinforcing the GT430’s motorsport-inspired character while remaining perfectly usable on the road.

Finished in the fantastic Evora Silver and complimented by carbon fibre panels featuring red strakes, the car looks as good as it goes! Gloss black forged wheels with a diamond cut lip house the purposeful AP Racing brake calipers, also finished in red.

The interior continues the exterior theme featuring black leather and alcantara throughout, with red seat centre panels and a twin contrast stitch in red and white. Carbon is continued in the car with carbon backed seats and interior sill covers. An alcantara wheel completes the interior styling.

Having covered just 5,400 miles since its first registration in April 2018, and having just 3 owners in total, with current ownership of almost 6 years, the car presents in an excellent condition throughout. The car also benefits from a full front PPF covering, as well as the lower doors, rear sills and rear bumper edges, ensuring that the paintwork remains fantastic for the long term in all driving scenarios.

Featuring a documented history, including a multi-page article on the car in Absolute Lotus, service and maintenance invoicing and the Lotus book pack, it is clear that this Evora has been well looked after. Notably, the Ohlins shocks were serviced in 2025 ensuring their continued performance and a Moroso Aluminium sump has been installed for better oil management under increased load. The car also features a Metatrak S5 tracker.

Rare, focused and increasingly collectible, the Lotus Evora GT430 stands as one of the finest driver’s cars of its generation. A modern classic that encapsulates everything the Lotus name represents.
