It should be a 1984. For 1985 Lotus offered four models with Columbus frames and Campagnolo groups. The Record (SLX, C-Record) made it's debut at the top of the line, while the Supreme slipped to 2nd, but was upgraded to SLX. Both the Competition and Legend Compe appear to have been dropped in favour of the Victory (SL, Victory) and Triomphe (tretubi SL, Triomphe). All 1985 models rec'd a minor upgrade by featuring Italian tertiary components (from Nisi, Regina, Cinelli, San Marco), in order to be more competitive in the marketplace.
