Lotus will be showing off a special edition of the Elise sports car at the upcoming Frankfurt motor show.

The Elise Club Racer will pay homage to the colour-schemes of the classic Lotuses of the 1960s, offering a choice of Elite Yellow, Carbon Grey, Sky Blue and Old English White.

Inside, the car will also reflect the Club Racer name, with minimalistic seats with comfort pads placed on a body-colour seat shell.

Other exclusive touches include details on the handbrake sleeve and gear-lever, a hand-stitched Club Racer logo on the seats and aluminium flooring in the driver and passenger footwells.

The Club Racer is based on the entry-level Elise S and will sprint to 60mph in the same 5.7 seconds as the normal car.

It will also cost the same £25,712 as the standard Elise S and goes on sale on September 15.
