ʻO Esprit Turbo na Lotus hoʻokumu Colin Chapman
Nā mea
ʻO ke kaʻa kahi i hopu ʻia ai ʻo Margaret Thatcher
Makemake ʻoe e kaʻa e hoʻokele ʻia e Colin Chapman lāua ʻo Margaret Thatcher? A laila e kūʻai aku i kēia Lotus Esprit Turbo no ʻEnelani.
Ua holo nui ʻo Colin Chapman i kahi lotus. ʻAe, akā ma hea ka pīhoihoi? Eia nō naʻe, ʻo ka ʻoiaʻiʻo o ka holo ʻana o Margaret Thatcher i kēia Esprit Colin Chapman ʻaʻole ʻike nui ʻia e ka hapa nui. Ke kūʻai ʻia nei ke kaʻa e kahi mea kūʻai aku ma Farnham, Surrey, hoʻokahi hola ma ke komohana hema o Ladana a kokoke ʻekolu mau hola mai ke keʻena nui ʻo Lotus ma Hettel.
Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻo Lotus Esprit Turbo a Colin Chapman i Pepeluali 1981 a hoʻopaʻa inoa ʻia no ka hoʻohana ʻana i ke alanui ma ʻAukake 1, 1981. ʻAʻole naʻe lākou i holo nui - hōʻike ka speedometer i 11 mau mile a i ʻole 000 mau kilomita. Ua hōʻano hou ʻia ke kālā metala i ka wā lōʻihi, a ua mālama maikaʻi ʻia ka loko, wahi a ka mea kūʻai aku ʻo Mark Donaldson. ʻO ka neʻe ʻana o ka ʻenekini turbo ʻehā he 17 lita, no laila ua ʻike mua ʻia i ka makahiki 000. Ua pani hou ʻia ke kāʻei manawa.
Nā lakohana kūikawā na Chapman
Ua hoʻololi iki ʻia ka Colin Chapman Esprit me kahi ʻōnaehana ea hou, hoʻokele mana a me kahi kānana pollen i hoʻokomo ʻia i loko o ke kaʻa - ua loaʻa ʻo Chapman i ka maʻi maʻi. Ua hoʻomaikaʻi ʻia ka hull e hōʻemi i ka leo aerodynamic a hoʻomaikaʻi i ka sila. Ua ʻoi aku ka nui o ka nānā ʻana i ka ʻenekini a me ka ʻōnaehana braking ma mua o nā huahana maʻamau. E like me ka mea i ʻōlelo mua ʻia, ua lacquered ka Esprit i ke kālā metala. Hoʻonani nui ʻia ka loko me ka ʻili ʻulaʻula. Akā ʻaʻole kēia wale nō ka hiʻohiʻona - ʻoi aku paha, ua kauoha pilikino ʻo Chapman i ka hoʻokomo ʻana i kahi ʻōnaehana mele Panasonic RM 6210 kiʻekiʻe me kahi papa hoʻomalu ma ke kaupaku.
He moʻolelo pīhoihoi, he mau mile
ʻAʻole i manaʻo ʻia ka mea nāna i hoʻokumu iā Lotus e mālama i kāna Esprit no ka lōʻihi. Ua uhi ʻia ke kaʻa haʻuki i waena o 4460 mau mile - ma kahi o 7100 mau kilomita - i ka wā i kūʻai aku ai ʻo Lotus i ke kaʻa ma ke kūʻai aku ma 1983. Ua make ʻo Chapman iā ia iho i ka makahiki 54 mai ka hopu ʻana i ka naʻau i ka makahiki 1982. Ua kūʻai ʻia ʻo Esprit ma ke kudala. mai kahi mea kūʻai aku ma Leicester nāna i kūʻai aku iā ia i kahi mea kūʻai pilikino. Ua hoʻohana ka mea kūʻai i ke kaʻa no kekahi manawa, a laila ma hope o ka noho ʻana o ʻehiku mau makahiki, lawe ʻo ia i ka hale hana ma 1997 no ka lawelawe koʻikoʻi - ʻo ka bila kākau lima he 5983,17 paona Pelekane. Ma hope o kēlā, ʻike ʻia ka Esprit e hana me ka pilikia ʻole i ka wā o ka ʻike loea. Ua kipa hou aku ʻo Lotus i ke kaʻa i nā makahiki ʻelua e hiki mai ana, me ka hoʻololi ʻana o ka laina petrol i ka makahiki 1998 a ua hoʻihoʻi ʻia ka ʻā i ka makahiki 1999. Ua hele ʻo Esprit ma waena o nā mea nona mai ka makahiki 2000 a ua hoʻi hope i ka ʻehā o ka mea nona. ʻAʻole hōʻike ka mea kūʻai aku i ke kumukūʻai o kēia manawa. Ma Kelemānia, ʻike ʻo Classic Analytics i nā kumukūʻai Esprit Turbo i mālama maikaʻi ʻia ma waena o 30 a me 600.
Ua makemake ʻo Margaret Thatcher iā Chapman's Esprit
Ma ʻAukake 5, 1981, ua huakaʻi ke kuhina nui ʻo Margaret Thatcher me Chapman's Esprit i kona wā i kipa aku ai iā Norfolk. Ua hōʻike ʻo Chapman iā ia i kekahi mau hiʻohiʻona Lotus hou aʻe a lawe pōkole iā ia me kekahi o lākou. Hōʻike kekahi kiʻi iā Thatcher e hoʻokele nei iā Esprit. ʻIke ʻo ia i ka manaʻo kānalua, akā maopopo leʻa ke aloha i ke kaʻa. ʻO kāna ʻōlelo: "Keaukaha nui." Wahi a lākou ua hoʻāʻo ʻo ia e pakele me ia.
hopena
ʻO ke kūʻai ʻana i kahi Esprit i alakaʻi ʻia e Colin Chapman he mea hauʻoli paha ia no ka poʻe Lotus fan e like me ka mea e kūʻai aku ai ka mea pā Porsche i kahi 911 i alakaʻi ʻia e ka Ferry Porsche. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ʻo Margaret Thatcher e hoʻokele nei he hopena ʻoluʻolu loa ia no ka poʻe kaʻa. Akā me Thatcher a i ʻole, ʻo ka Lotus Esprit mua he kaʻa kūikawā.
