    Factory group collections

    Picking my car up Monday morning from the factory, notice the info says ot one of 3 cars so will be a group collection, not that it particularly bothers me, may even be the reason I'm collecting 10 days after checking out but wondered if its a new thing? Anyone on here Monday morning?

    It's not too bad tbh, 215g I believe, it's big for the rolex world where over 40mm brings them out in cold sweats bit it feels slightly lighter than the ROO on the bracelet, although sits higher. I've an old 44mm breitling chronomat and ot feels pretty similar to that on the wrist tbh. My last...

    Depreciation/Appreciation on New Lotus Emiras

    Also worth bearing in mind it ain't just the Emira, it took me 5mths and a big drop to sell a 981 gt4 and I've Bern seeing that on the gt4 pages. Times are tough in this price bracket

    One of the questions I'll be asking Scott walker when I collect my car Monday

    Depreciation/Appreciation on New Lotus Emiras

    I think totally the opposite, when the car hits mainstream media, there's a few more about and the price increase sinks in values will firm up if anything. Time will tell .

    I'm actually on the list for one at my local goldsmiths but this one cropped up, a 126660 at just under rrp so decided to snap it up then decided if and when the 136660 turns up . Will post a pic when it arrives 👍🏼

    It's crazy, I checked out last Tuesday night, finance approved we'd morning. Got called today at 10am to arrange collection next Monday, by 2pm I'd payed the balance and returned finance docs, 4pm they called to say all sorted and ready to collect Monday. How on earth can it be so different??

    Actual 0-60 Times?

    Should really be able to feel that 0.1 sec 👍🏼🤣

    Actual 0-60 Times?

    Given its power to weight and acclaimed traction it would be difficult to understand why it wouldn't hit its claimed numbers given decent conditions

    Actual 0-60 Times?

    Not sure why anyone would beat on the emira for its 0-60 when it's quicker than its direct competitor the 4.0gts. Its bang on its market place specs with power and performance You can go lambo quick to 60 in a £10k shitbox if that's your bag

    I think its a lottery either way, as I understand it it still leaves the factory for its pdi the goes back for collection 🤦

    Didn't you have to select that at checkout? I did. I've gone for factory pick up. Definitely merits for either option

    Emiras advertised for sale on other sites

    That's an interesting one as according to polls on forums and Facebook it's the least ordered colour. But if you're someone that wants one I guess your options are going to be really limited on the used market.

    There's a box to check in checkout, I decided not to do it straight away for two reason, keep it as simple for lotus as possible 😄 and I fancy a 23 plate on for a while as I'm March collection

    It's called a PCP, personal contract plan, so after the 30 months there's a final gfv, guaranteed future Value, to pay, in this case 54k, you can either hand it back, or more likely the car will be worth more than that sell or trade it and use the equity towards the deposit for the next one

    Yes but it was a pre production car way before any cars were actually on the road and that was ages ago. No production group tests in top gear, evo autocar etc...

    Emiras advertised for sale on other sites

    I agree, fair enough there's a few on YouTube etc but the emira has barely hit mainstream media in the last year, lotus haven't supplied cars to major magazines or television shows it seems since they started production cars. I still think they'll be amongst the least depreciating new car fir...

    I've heard of a few of these, I guess it's due to problems highlighted at pdi? Would be nice to know though, infuriating being kept in the dark for so long

    So my car was £80700 , I put 22k total deposit Inc the 5k they had, the finance sliders take this into account on the checkout page where as they don't on the general site. I did 30mths which gave the lowest monthly with that deposit at £551pm, I'll likely not keep it that long so just keeps the...
