That's true, although there were reasons for that which were mostly beyond Lotus control.

I think they made the right amount considering the deposits they had, then the economy fell apart, interest rates went up and many, many people pulled out. I think the review is good but the 3 year value? If they go down as low as that after 3 years they will be an absolute steal.

I assumed a garbage truck had rolled down a hill into the first one, the second one looked more obviously AI generated

Eek, what happened? Hope you're OK.

This is interesting, mine is an August 2023 delivery (V6) car, I have had the check engine light come on a couple of times, once a couple of months ago and again last weekend. My car is kept on charge but both times it coincided with the car being washed and only driven short distances, the last...

I have £4.50 and a packet of Polos I'm willing to throw in too, does that get me 10%?

Yes, worried me too but I think it's normal.

I have them too, just make sure you loosen and re tighten them every time you clean the car, that should make sure they don't corrode (stick) onto the valve as that can be a real pain. Worst case scenario if they are corroding is to get a new set of Ebay, they're only a few quid (well mine were).

A special edition made for the roads in East Sussex, how thoughtful!

If they've only got 1000 V6 engines left why would they use them up on base edition cars? Surely they would use them for special editions?

I'm the same, mine is not a particularly early car (July 2023 pick up, no idea of build date, but the amount of bird lime marks on it at collection for a brand new car suggest that it had sat outside for at least some time prior to it being finished which surprised me as my order was finalised...

Also spotted a Nimbus on the A21 (well waiting to pull onto the A21) about 5 miles south of Tunbridge Wells, about 11.30 this morning. Highly unlikley to be the same one that was in Miami though! :ROFLMAO:

I was told by the dealer that keyless entry wasn't included for security reasons. Yes it would be handy but I'd rather that small inconvenience than waking up to find my Emira gone because someone used a laptop to intercept the signal (although mine is safely locked away in a secure garage so...

I don't know the answer but have seen at least one report of replaced doors also suffering the same bubbling, suggesting that they certainly didn't solve the problem on that new door!

Following this with interest as I'm in a similar position to JonFuller and many others. I've had my car for 18 months now and no evidence of paint bubbling, BUT it's kept garaged and washed carefully and rarely driven in bad weather. ALSO the first time I drove my car I parked it on a slope...
