Well, its here finally :D The car is absolutely awesome, have done 130 miles in it so far, the 4k limit is not an issue at all (still easily lose your license :ROFLMAO: ) This is an everyday driver for me so will no be a garage queen, trying to get the first 1000 in before May so I can do...

Holy crap that car is so ugly I thought it was a spoof video until I clicked on it and realised it was a genuine BMW. You need a right old set of beer goggles to see any beauty in that!

Its bank dependent, I can tx upto £30k with my bank on line. You can TX with some banks over the phone and limit is higher (not sure how high) when I closed my Lloyds savings acc I TX across far more than £25k in one transaction via the phone with them, so might be worth giving them a buzz...

I was a 8th July 2021 Deposit Check out mail was 8th Feb 2023 Took till 2nd Mar 2023 to complete check out as it froze on me!! - just another LOTUS CC problem to frustrate me - they seemed incapable of resolving - made me start it again and then they messed that up as well losing my finance...

I had this insurance on my Jag F Pace. Made 2 claims on it. Once when someone scratched the top of the door in a car park (Think some hit the car with a bag or something similar), reported it on a Tuesday, with the Jag insurance I filled in an online form with pictures showing a ruler...

Doh, my bad - did not filter the engine size - where is my humble pie 🥧 🤔:D However the 4.0 GTS is just one of a range of supposed competitors and that depends on who is doing the review, and the 2nd hand numbers for sale reflect its own popularity in the Cayman range so its a selective...

?????? Where did you get that number from? - Auto trader alone has 24 Emira's versus 39 Cayman GTS or 65 GT4's which are supposedly even more rare. The test drive cars were always going to come to market, I was told during my test drive that was the Lotus plan to keep the Demo car's fresh.

I am having a front end Xpel Ulimate PPF completed by Lotus Silverstone before I pick the car up at the end of the month :) Also not bothering with the ceramic coating!

I was going to do the factory pick up but decided against it when I saw there was a charge for it. Lotus are milking every penny, I would have expected that to have been part of the buying experience and a no cost option if you wanted to take it, yet another opportunity to make the customer...

It truly is crazy, I really don't understand why it so hard to buy this car from Lotus 🤔 I thought I was passed the wait and was on a path to finally getting the car, but the wait just got longer it would appear 😒

So my Lotus new car experience keeps getting worse!! I was wondering what the next step was as the finance had been approved and I had not heard back from Lotus so I chased them, it now turns out that my order has not yet been confirmed and the checkout program appears to not be working for me...

This is my V8, I have had it off the road for a couple of years to keep the mileage down :(

No I did not make a selection so when agreeing payment process they said not to worry as they would agree either at the final payment stage.

Hi TomE, My car history is varied, all sorts of hot hatches and Jag's as well as racing Motorbikes, I am a long suffering Lotus owner as I own a Ruby Red 1999 V8 Esprit (Hence the Magma Red Emira) which I have had for 15 years and was desperately holding on for a new Esprit model as I was not...

Hoping so, although as an existing Esprit owner I am used the poor customer experience of dealing with Lotus, I think it just adds to how unique a bunch we are as owners that put up with it.

Would be up for that :)

Will do, so excited now its been such a wait that I almost gave up on a couple of times through frustration!

Just waiting on the call to arrange either collection or delivery, have not made my mind up yet. Torn between the factory for the added glitz or local dealer so I can just get it and start driving :unsure:

I assume you are going for i4? My experience is been average I would say, I wanted to change the wheels from gloss black to the diamond cut and did this in line with the process they gave, unfortunately they missed the wheel spec change, got everything else correct but I am happy with either...

They are indeed, I went there to see the Emira on tour, will be using them for my maintenance etc

I am most certainly in, check out is completed. I order the morning of 8th July before the Goodwood rush. Got my check out email on 8th Feb :)

Hey Everyone, Been reading the pages and post for a while and thought I should register and say hi. Should have my Emira in the next few weeks - Magma Red :) Nellie
