I just don’t understand how Harris can say 991GT3 is better than 992 GT3 - same as Metcalfe did before he changed his mind. Rubbish !! Must be some hidden agenda here. Just swapped a 991gt3 for a 992gt3 - the 992 is better in every way in terms of development - steering , ride ( way better ...

I’m out !! Told Lotus yesterday and they asked me for feedback. Numerous reasons of course - can’t be bothered to write war and peace ! Enhance and protect a month ago but nothing since. Too many delays , false promises - cancelled a GTS 992 because Emira was due June 22 - so annoying. Not...

The Lamborgini dealer told me that the ppf dents when hit by a stone so looked unsightly - only a year old car.

Why not just pay the paint protect policy @£399 when you buy the car - covers 18 claims. Huge saving over cost of PPF. If the ppf is dented the dealer you sell the car back to will have to peel off , re spray and then put ppf back on. I just have the cars detailed and then wash very carefully...

How long after the protect email would you expect to receive the checkout email ? Noticed on the protect email you can protect the paint for £399 - 18 claims . Why would you bother with PPF ? Dealers tell me that when reselling they often have to peel the front ppf off and re paint and polish...

Yes , that is the brutal bare truth of it. Wanted to love it . Looks great , but unfortunately that is it.Lotus standards are just not acceptable to a modern car buyer in volume. Pretty sure I am going to cancel - keep putting off the inevitable as don’t want the dream to end really !

Test drive at Silverstone . Red car with Touring chassis. Red did not look very exciting , although was dirty. Hethel Yellow car being collected looked really nice. Seats ok , more side support would be better. Driving position fine. Didn’t like the Ice Grey leather. Alcantara with Yellow...

A Yellow one being picked up from Lotus Silverstone

To me most colours and especially the Yellow looks 100% better with the full Black pack . Lowers the car and makes it look way more striking and purposeful. Boring if we all liked the same.

I think there have been as I just booked December Silverstone

I had a manual GT4 - engine was very flat and disappointing all because of the gearing - made the engine sound muted. No fun unless you were doing 90 mph in second !! I sold the car after 2 months. My son has a pdk Gt4 and it is so much better . With the extra gear you can keep it on the boil...

Spoke to cs this morning and my “October build schedule and firmly locked in spec etc “ is now most probably sometime Q1. Why can’t I alter my spec !!! I was told 200-300 cars in total to be built this year but that includes everything, so can’t see many U.K. customers getting there...

Hi , I posted a pic from Hethel back in August - looked a bit underwhelming to me with the basic wheels and no Black Pack.
