You can still put a 22 private plate on sept Car :LOL:

Same email putting back from June to July :(. Annoying as I didn’t change spec after they locked in my build without letting me know, as they said it would go back to July for any changes. Cancelled my order now, as finding the whole buying process disappointing. just not feeling the love...

Lol re fiat. Here in the UK the market is crazy at the moment for used cars. Managed to sell the missus’s Mini JCW to trade after 3 years use, 20k miles put on it, 3 panels needed painting and no service for last 2 years for same price we bought it from dealers those 3 years ago. Madness...

Emira for sure, but still loved my first Evora in orange

I’ve bought 80+ cars to date, a fair portion new. Lotus have been by far the worst customer experience i have encountered for new cars :( Just recently bought the missus a new Fiat 500.. Puts lotus to shame Srill love the cars though, but prefer Lotus dealer experience for 2nd hand cars.

Having owned a few Exiges and Evoras , only the latter will be similar to the Emira. Exige is much rawer than Evora, but in reality for road use with state of our roads the Evora was a more capable road car. My Sports 380 Exige was often airborne on Cotswolds roads :LOL:

Fully get where you are coming from. I have been customer facing for last 20 years and have found the lotus buying process woeful. Im actually debating just cancelling my june delivery V6 FE as not enjoying the experience. Anyway, as per your suggestion I had also decided if I didn’t have...

Also owned one of the first PE’s when they came out. Wonderful car to drive and always said at the time it would be my perfect car if it had Lotus looks.

Well let’s put it this way, after owning 3 911‘s including GT3, I chose an Evora twice over the equivalent Cayman S at the time, due to the smile factor of the Lotus :)

Sounds like an early depositor with same spec as your original order has cancelled order, so you were next in line with that exact spec.

After seeing the improved renders the start of this week with the release of the new configurator , I wanted to make some changes to my config . I have been told any changes will put me back from June to July date . I questioned the reasons for this and just received following email “The...

A thank you from me too sir, top work.

Damn these renders and videos make the car look good in all the colours. Made my job even harder to decide now lol. Good job Lotus (y)

Drove a friends Noble 3R and it’s up there with Lotus re handling, steering etc. great cars. Although like others the looks of the 500 don’t work for me. Snap from our Alps trip where I took the Exige at the time
