They can state what they like but the placing of monies ie the deposit being placed would superseed any terms and conditions they make , in any international jurisdiction the court would be bound by the relevant precedents and once a deposit is placed they as a manufacturer and you as a...

The way round the request is to spell out consumer law to them and issue them with your intention to issue legal proceedings if they deem to restrict supply and or delay delivery once they have accepted your deposit and indicated a delivery schedule that is a binding contract for them to supply...

Believe me lotus has no grounds to restrict or remove your right to sell the car once you take owner ship I would actually go so far as to say if challenged in court that to refuse to sell you a car on the suspicion of selling it on is in itself illegal,, that amounts to trying to control demand...

I’m with you my friend to get a 5k return on any deal assured is a no brainier to ask more when there will be plenty on the market in 2/3 months will risk your 5k when you actually get your car , lock in your potential new owner and run with it you will pass on a car a new owner won’t have to...

I have it on good authority that two of those aforementioned dealers have had at least ten people wishing to pass on there as yet untried car for 5 to 10 k more than list ! Needless to say the dealers see no mark up at that level and feel that a first edition emira which is being produced for...

It’s not over because the dealer to sell fir 90k to 95k means the dealer will only give you 80 to 82k ; you will earn little the dealer a little after taking the px he will have to take ! The car is not an earner in any shape !

I have a business associate in Belgium who like me has a passion for the shiny metal and according to a car friend of his the emira has hit the ground so to speak but has had very little fan fare and without any undue drama ,perhaps it’s just us brits getting all worked up !

The talk in the trade is that the emira will be worth 5k over for six months max then don’t touch at all when in full production !

Won’t disappoint me good luck will keep enjoying my evora to and look forward to my boxster gts in the autumn and await my 4 qt 2023 cayman gt4 rS , a slot I happened to have having been disappointed with my Newley arrived 911 gt3 and resold it back to the Porsche dealer with a 30k profit ...

Stupid and irrelevant to inquire about delivery performance and date of arrival ! You need to go to school pal

Sounds like lotus customers have taken a downturn or the truth hurts

If the deposits would have been non refundable I expect the demand to be in the low thousands if that , they don’t exactly have a track record on delivering the product as stated !

Exactly me twelve months ago ,couldn’t decide emira or gts boxster placed deposit on the emira 8 July and told car would be available spring summer 2023 ,also placed deposit Porsche gts boxster told 4 th quarter 2023 ,thought ok a nice spacing between the two ,looked forward to 2023: went to...

So they will produce more emira cars in two years than the evora over ten years ; and you reckon it will be a keeper how !
