THE ULTIMATE GRAND TOURER.

Driven by a desire for more sporting iteration, Project Kahn went back to the

drawing board to create a more aggressive look for the car, STARTING with the

wheels. Project Kahn employed one of the premier alloy designs from their sister

company Kahn Design, fitting the GTS with the classic RS-D Diamond edition. With an

outstanding diamond cut finish and a classic yet contemporary design the RS-D fits

the role perfectly.

The Project Kahn aerodynamic body styling system is the most distinguished

element within the GT-S package. The styling system provides a complete look with

front spoiler, rear apron, side sills and a rear boot spoiler. Manufactured from

high quality polyurethane reaction injection molding (PU RIM), the styling system

maintains the demanding standards required by the Project Kahn team ensuring no

element of the conversion undermines the essential quality of the vehicle.

The Project Kahn GT-S also sport s a complete interior upgrade, featuring quilted

Nappa leather available in a variety of colours and combinations. All seats, door

panels, steering wheels and gear shifts are re-upholstered to offer the ultimate

quality driving experience. Various fabrics are available including alcantara, suede,

perforated, grained or smooth leather plus many more.

Completing the conversion, as with all Project Kahn Vehicles, the GT-S is fitted with

tinted privacy glass as well as a fully adjustable electronic lowering module to

create a firmer, more responsive drive.

Lotus has confirmed in a recent press release that they will be launching a new supercar to rival the new Ferrari.

The planned launch is supposed to be the Paris Motor show in October. The question is whether Lotus is planning to relaunch the Esprit which ceased production in 2004 and was also launced at the Paris Motor Show of 1975.

The Esprit was praised for its style but lacked power until the launch of the v8 in 1996 which put them firmly in the supercar realm.

Lotus is keeping very quiet about the car but we get the distinct feeling that it could be a new Esprit with a more powerful engine to compete with the likes of Ferrari, Porsche and Maserati for this very lucrative market.

We might also see the launch of a mid engine rear wheel drive based on the original Esprit which could be the start of their development of a vehicle with a six figure price tag.

A Kahn design is looking forward to the launch as we have developed body kits and wheels for Lotus cars in the past and in particular for the Elise.

We also noticed that the side view is very similar but in the rear the boot handle now extends the full width of the car. A Kahn design also learned that the 2.2 litre turbo diesel will be upgraded. There’s an intriguing SD4 HSE badge on the vehicle that was spotted suggesting that the new higher-powered diesel model will wear a new SD4 badge as opposed to today’s TD4 name.

Please send us your photographs if you spot any being tested!

To fully appreciate the accurate detail of the vinyl it really needs to be seen in the flesh. The Carbon Fibre Vinyl is not a print effect, instead the film has an embossed finish echoing that of the real thing. As the vinyl reflects the light it changes the emphasis on the pattern depending on the viewing angle.

The Carbon Fibre effect is perfect for both a vehicles interior and exterior and can be applied to wing mirrors, roofs, bonnets, dash boards etc.

The Carbon Fibre Vinyl is available in rolls of 400mm x 1220mm, complete with full instructions. The effect is easy to install, easy to clean and comes with a bubble-free guarantee. Alternatively the vinyl can be applied in-house by Kahn Design experts.

Carbon Fibre Vinyl is not limited to vehicle detailing and can be easily applied to personalise motorbikes, laptops, mobile phones etc.
