    Waiting times

    Yes..... to us the Emira is wonderful.... the big hope for Lotus.... mentioned I was buying to a friend.... he said "he had heard of Lotus, but did they not go bust a few years ago" So many things we dont know.... and I dont think Lotus know yet them selfs, if the car gets a good review... if...

    I am sorry for you.... I am ..... for me its taking a little of the joy out of getting the car..... for you I would think may be more. What does make me laugh, is Lotus choose to switch to this drirect selling format.... they clearly did not think it over, or have and dont still have the...

    Lotus Advanced Performance - new division announced focusing on bespoke vehicles and customer experiences

    My points I. Is it right that lotus force you to bundle zero value items in the finance 2 We don’t know what the rates are going to be its not an example it’s an illustration, and from what I have seen the residuals are not that good. Do they have the T&C of the finance deal to check? 3 The...
