Description
We are delighted to offer this rare UK supplied, one owner Tesla ‘Signature Sport 250 Edition’ Roadster for sale.
With Elon Musk an enthusiastic owner of performance cars which included the iconic McLaren F1, part of the original design brief was that together with utilising ground-breaking technology, Tesla’s first production model should be both dynamic and exciting to drive. As such, the skills of Lotus engineers were employed for the design and construction of the chassis, body and handling characteristics of the Roadster.
With a total production of 2, 450 examples, the Roadster was sold in over thirty countries between 2008 and 2012. More than a decade later, the original Roadster is now rightly regarded as being the first ‘classic electric car’ and ahead of Tesla launching their highly anticipated second generation Roadster, values and interest in these original versions have continued to rise.
As chassis # 222/ 250, this rare Signature Sport is one of just a handful of examples produced in Right Hand Drive. Finished in Obsidian Black metallic paint with Paint Protection Film applied from new, interior options include full exclusive leather with premium and heated seats trimmed in black hide with red leather inserts to seats and doors.
With its increased performance, the Signature Sport Edition reaches 60mph in 3. 7 seconds and features 10-way adjustable suspension and AP brake upgrades to discs and calipers. Further optional extras include the fitment of forged alloy wheels painted in gloss black with red brake calipers, LCD touchscreen with Bluetooth and seven speaker entertainment system, rear parking sensors and carbon fibre roll-hoop.
Supplied new in 2010 from Tesla’s original headquarters in Knightsbridge, this example has been meticulously cared for by its one and only keeper. Regularly serviced and maintained by recognised and long-term Tesla Roadster experts, the service history is comprehensive and includes a recent and thorough overhaul providing further evidence of the care and maintenance programme.
A very original example, this fantastic one owner Signature 250 Edition Roadster is in superb mechanical and cosmetic condition with battery life and range both in excellent order.
Please call for further details and I will be delighted to help answer any questions.
