Spied: Lotus V8 Esprit Being Tested?

With the new Lotus Esprit soon coming in, NextAutos‘ spy photographer has taken some shots of a regular Lotus Exige body running around being tested – which leaves us all thinking if it could be the actual engine going through tests, which would be put into the new Esprit’s body.
Now as to where the V8 is going to come from, remains unclear, but rumours do indicate that it would most probably be from Toyota, as Lotus has already used a Toyota engine previously in their Series 2 Exige (1.8L). However, that still may be proven wrong as earlier rumours say that perhaps a BMW V8 may power the new car. Whichever it may be though, we sure are excited for the revival of this amazing car.
