That’s assuming they weren’t on SOR and haven’t been removed as unsold of course. That would explain why cheap cars remain and higher priced ones disappear

I treat every incident like this a confirmation that my decision to move on from Lotus was the right move. The Emira and Lotus experience has been part of my life now for nearly two years, and letting go was hard for me as I really loved the Emira from the outset but at every turn Lotus seem to...

I finally got around to making the call to Lotus CC on Friday to cancel my order and it seems that even that process has the Lotus DNA. I checked online to find out how to cancel - 'contact CC and they will process the cancellation for you' - is the line on the Lotus website. So Friday...

What exactly is plush about the cushion in the Emira though? Have you sat in one?....They didn't feel very soft or pliable to me.

Ahh, that's where I'm going wrong. I'll forget my real life experiences in future and get the true answer I need from google :ROFLMAO:

I really don't understand the defence here. The seat in the Emira is bagging after 400 miles but yet you choose to assume people don't understand how leather works rather than agree that it's unacceptable. I've had cars with Nappa leather and after 60k miles they weren't bagged......and they...

Ahh, what great taste in cars you have 😉😂. Mine’s also the Circuit Pack and I love it!! I hope you resolve your issue with Lotus as I’m sure the Emira will be great! 👍🏻👍🏻

Yeah, in the end for me personally the Alpine just matched my requirements much better than the Emira I drove the Pure, S and GT and even did a back to back drive with the Emira to be sure I was making the right choice. The R isn’t even released yet so I have to rely on the reviews that it’ll...

They look uncomfortable but they are actually surprisingly nice to sit in

Thank you 👌

I'm sad to say that I'm out too and will be cancelling my price protected order this week, which I hope means someone else will be brought forward in the queue and be saved from the price hike. My heart has been 'out' for some time now but the looks of the Emira have kept me hanging on by a...

Sorry, I misunderstood your comment about going the dealer route to mean, for collection of the car, not selling it!! Best choice to let them have the hassle if you can still make the figures work after their commission (y) P.S. I look forward to hearing the gory details of the Lotus...

Have you had a load of time wasters?.....Some private sellers say they have had little interest and others say they are inundated with people (who don't end up buying), so it seems like a strange divide 🧐

Any of my own comments are not meant to abuse anyone. How's your experience been with trying to sell?

Make your mind up. First you accuse me of commenting on your situation without enough knowledge but then when I present you with the information to back up my comments, you call me obsessed :ROFLMAO: I hope you thoroughly 'enjoyed' your 300 miles of running in the Emira. It really stands to...

On the contrary……I have read about your situation on your advert But as another poster highlighted…’who buys a car they know they can’t afford when they have a wedding and house purchase on the horizon’ Your reply to them, shown here below, pretty much has you bashing the price yourself and...

For ease of reading, I'll respond in Italic! ;) I don't know what you found so frustrating about my reply, or what motive you think I'd have for bashing the price considering I have one on order!! I would love to see it sell for £100k as many others seem to think will happen....but it won't...

The only data you need is the open market, and if they are not selling then they are overpriced. Obviously there are seasonal good/bad times to sell but we're coming into Spring now, tracks are opening back up and the motor season's starting again. The fact that you can't 'yet' sell yours for...

I got that email on the 12th July 2021 and still no car :ROFLMAO:. I'm UK though

Lovely car mate. And liquid yellow is possibly my favourite colour ever....:love:

Come on then, let's hear what it sounds like :D

The sad reality is that the Emira is not selling on the used market over list price. A lot of the cars listed have been advertised for weeks/months and include several price drops. We can surmise about 'how the price will strengthen' once more people know about the Emira, but the reality is...

Yep, I totally agree with JayEmm's You Tube video.....but Lotus say it's not

:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: Have you had your Emira order delayed 5 times like most of us?! That's why I'm sceptical of EVERYTHING Lotus tell us

So what you're really saying is that you don't believe Lotus.....as they stated that the Emira was a 'ground up' build, and not based on the Evora...and so a whole new platform....and so any comparisons should be irrelevant.....Right?

Well please enlighten anyone watching the thread.....what is the fairly well known quantity?.....Are you referring to the 5.3 seconds in the Carwow video or Lotus's claimed 4.3?

1. Estimate 2. Estimate 3. Fairly accurate 4. Irrelevant 5. Real world

⬆️ This! I'm pretty sure the point of the thread was to establish the authenticity of Lotus' claimed 0-60 figure, not to debate it's relevance

CC told me some time ago that I had to request to be on a cancellation list to even be considered and that cancellations were offered to people further down the list! I did ask why but I was told that she couldn't tell me due to too much negative talk on social media 🙃 Needless to say I didn't...

I assume you've probably seen this video with a 0-60 and 0-100 launch....but if not here it is..... 0-60 in 5.3 and 0-100 in 10.9

They've had the Emira on Top Gear (TV and magazine), so can't get much better mainstream coverage than that....and it had a glowing review from Chris Harris. I'd say the only crowd that aren't aware of the car will be some Porsche Cayman/Boxter customers who change their car every 3 years and...

Imagine if the APR goes up to 9.9 % , as some people are predicting! That would surely be the killer blow for many 😱

No. Exactly the same 'balloon' as before the price hike, although they did increase the balloon slightly with the last interest rate rise. I'm lucky to be amongst the 'price protected' people but I've kept screen shots of the Lotus finance configurator since the rate went up to 6.9 APR (and...

I think it’s still on there, just now advertised for £84,500

I've owned the Merc GTR and driven several F Type's and in my opinion they are different cars altogether....a bit like M3 vs C63. The GTR is super focused and agile whereas I found the F Type to have a loose rear end that's fun for drifting and general laughs. Both are great GT cars and it...
