This was one of the competitors in the BRDC Historic Sportscar Championship race at the Gold Cup meeting at Oulton Park in August 2002.
It's the 1960 Lotus 15 of David Heynes and has a 4-cylinder inline 1,960cc Coventry Climax FPF engine. The car was a successor to the Lotus Mk X, developed from the Lotus Eleven but designed to accommodate engines from 1½ to 2½ litres. It was intended for International Sports Car racing, but though cars were entered in the 1958 and 1959 Le Mans 24 Hour race none of them managed to finish.
