"V1" ???
V6 with 5 missing conrods?
Or has someone just made up some crap moniker through boredom waiting for their car?
Lotus don't use 'V1' anywhere in any talk of the Emira.
The most surprising thing is that anyone thought the i4 was going to sound any good in the first place.
It's not Lotus's fault; there's not much you can do with a turbo i4, especially with modern emissions regs, etc., but the talk I've seen here and on other forums about how Lotus were going to...
Who knows... I'd guess in the 60s, but where in that band is anyone's guess.
There are 40+ on the Trader now and the lowest priced one has been there since April. Surprising, to be honest.
I'm thinking why not just cancel (at the very last minute before paying the balance), get the deposit/fee/whatever back then pick one up with delivery miles at a discount?
It's common in the UK that if you take out, say, a 200k mortgage and then overpay by 50k (pay an extra 50k back than you were scheduled to have paid by this point in time), you're then able to withdraw the 50k you're ahead by and then repay that on the same interest rate as the mortgage (much...

Loads of time and effort producing bizarre TikTok content for children but pretty much zero effort expended on paying customers.
I got my finish line email early last month, filled in the finance thing to get a quote - I don't particularly want finance but thought I'd get...
I'm a bit late to the party here, but I do struggle to understand Lotus's interaction (or lack of) with enthusiasts and forums with many known deposit holders and new owners.
They have someone for social media but his entire raison d'etre seems to be to post inane, childish drivel for the 2.7m...
