Lotus Mk X

This car took part in he Louis Vuitton 1950s Sports Car Race at the Coys International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 1997.
It's the 1955 Lotus Mk X of Adrian Hall, which is very similar to the Lotus Mk VIII but modified to take the 1,971cc 6-cylinder Bristol engine that was derived from the pre-war BMW 328. The body of the car was designed by Frank Costin, brother of Mike Costin, who together with Keith Duckworth founded Cosworth Engineering.
