    Did you choose Goodyear or Cup2? My understanding is that there is a geometry change for the road tyres so it may not be so harsh as the pure sport setup. Any change is 2023 now

    Yeah, July delivery. I found that they didn't update my order back in December. Still I'm not 2023 worried!

    Review embargo

    Yeah. Holds its own against the competition, but has some weakness. Yet looks much better

    Anyone doing the factory tour w/c 6 June?

    Once a car is finished it needs to be PDI'ed registered and delivered so I'd add a week at least. My Polestar which didn't even need PDI'ing took 2 weeks. I would have thought we would know by know an actual production date. One other thing to bare in mind is we are expecting a call from Lotus...

    That's cutting things fine for July deliveries.

    Review embargo

    Well, for one they're not prototypes but pre production ... big difference. Second you'll get people that have actually paid for a car so will review it on that basis. Any reviewer that gets paid for a review doesn't last long

    It's getting Crowded in here

    Ok, I asked the wife (who runs the calendar) who was still insisting it was a bank holiday. As everyone I knew seemed to be going back to work, she has been told to stop relying on technology..... apparently Google prefilled it. Because of the job I do, bank Holidays don't make any difference...

    Insurance UK

    So with July looming I've been looking around for insurance. So far the car is not listed so I've been using the Evora GT410 2021 model value £80,0000. 5,000 miles per year. Best quote is £444 .. main stream insurance (Admiral) Does anyone use a specialist insurance company or has anyone got...

    Anyone doing the factory tour w/c 6 June?

    My gut feel is they will start next. If Lotus thought a delay was likely I reckon we would have known by now. Confirmation would be a weight off the shoulders though!

    @TomE Tom, any idea who the LotusCars contact is on FB / Messenger? I thought it might be PR?

    Possible further delays

    Been hearing that a few June -> July deliveries have slipped to August. I think the June production run .. if there is one, will be small. Both delays were a few days before Goodwood deposits

    I'm in the top 50 depositors. Agree that lotus hasn't communicated directly this information, but its been in the public domain for months. Just looking through this site would have told you that

    New Shmee Emira video

    I use to dislike him, but he's grown on me. Seems enthusiastic about cars and knows his onions. Couldn't give a crap if he's had a good start in life.

    Even if you collect the car from Hethel it still goes to Oxford. This is what customer service told me anyway.
