The Lucalia Clubman is a Clubman-style sportscar designed by Nick Lockyer in 1966. It was based upon the Lotus Super Seven (1957) design. A total of ten Lucalia Clubman's were produced in the 1970s to early 1980s and were manufactured in Tasmania, Australia.
Design
Lucalia Clubmans are of a Front-engine, rear-wheel drive (FR) configuration as per the Lotus Super Seven with unequal length double wishbone front suspension and a solid rear axle built around a steel space frame chassis.
All Lucalias were originally fitted with an inline four cylinder engine and drivetrain components of Japanese origin.
