Shame they are so ugly!!

Agree but still way better return than most of my “real” investments recently!! Risky to be the first seller in an untested market though

Seems low to me, I’m cancelling tomorrow!

Heating up a bit!

I’ll be cancelling if this flops… didn’t like the test drive but thought I’d take delivery and see if it grew on me… not prepared to risk cash on that outcome though!

I’d say it’s around 10% being sold There’s 3 to perhaps 5 for sale / sold, and I assume we’re now at 40 plus delivered cars, as it was 25 a couple of weeks ago

Another on auto trader… appears to be black 🤣 https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202212052292613

There’s a first!! 😃 Still no movement on the cc emira was expecting some bids by now…

95 I reckon… a lot of the cars on there add 20% or more on the final day But then it did get a lot of interest on the first day so perhaps most of the interest has passed…

I meant the spelling on cc is now correct… hence I assume they’ve changed their logon name based on the above I think we’re now close to the point where dealers will disappear- we know one dealer will pay c86k based on motorway and we’re nearly there with the whopping fee… so it’s customers and...

They’ve changed their name now… looks like someone who has signed up specifically to bid on the emira then… so a customer not a dealer

Market analysis and trends for car ownership, supply and demand, underlying economic macro and micro trends, product and brand history analysis …. All sounds like a skill to me

Well that’s an 80% return on your 5k for an 18 month investment so the return is huge… But the downside risk is significant too

It was said that the one on motorway (sale to trade) sold for 85k plus fees, but it was suggested there was some debate as to wether the seller was actually prepared to part with it…

This one has now disappeared from sale…. Not on Slade’s site as sold though…

Build time = π /sqrt(P(soon))

Ok and now you’ve come forward again! Lotus production planning meetings must be really interesting!!

Had you previously been told Jan delivery?

All bow down and serve the mighty emiraspain! Let he who hath no sense type the first word 🤐

That sounds much more positive… bar the dodgy software!

This is half worrying and half reassuring I read this as “We’ve built a bunch of cars using low quality parts” But on the bright side they have realised the error of their ways…. or perhaps “we thought we’d get away with it, but are now panicking re possible impact to the brand” I don’t...

I reckon this could easily sell for around 100k… large majority of the cars I’ve seen (recent admittedly) add at least 20% in the final 24 hours …. in which case you’d expect them to up the reserve

Fair enough makes sense! Assume future reserve might be somewhat higher by next week…

Sounds bizarre to me! You did suggest it was coming to collecting cars then it magically appeared so I do wonder…. are you the Gary??!

I’d say well over 80 for reserve… 90 even

now 77k, so buyers cost just over list, inc fee

Probably all 3!!

You tell us… isn’t that your car on auto trader??! 😃

Ah yes the fee will create some drag. Compared to the other cars on collecting cars the emira seems to be punching well above its weight so far…. Only a few cars with a higher bid, which of course are mainly rare Porsches

Agree if the one on collecting cars fetches 100k they will be all over it…

an unproven product and lots of downside risk given the state of the economy

Makes sense that if production [ever!] ramps up fully and there are over 1000 uk cars that prices will decline…. However that’s a good year away… and people are already being pushed out til 24 so I’m not wholly convinced of this ramp up right now the order book is very strong and there’s...

Do we have an idea how many have taken delivery in the uk now? I’m seeing lots of checkout emails but very few saying they’ve taken delivery

72.5k now… looks like there’s demand to me! Reckon it will hit 100k…

Now that is a bonkers asking - almost 50% markup! - fat chance….

Perhaps this is why o found rev matching so easy in the emira!! I just thought I was a natural after 18 months away from the manual game 😃

I’ve decided to do similar… I think 🤔 ….,get the car… actually get a decent drive in it so it has a proper chance to wow me If I still don’t get on with it after a while I’ll sell and get something else… who knows with a bit of luck I might get back what I paid or a bit more I’ve been in...

There’s enough shit in this world without people who all want the emira to succeed attacking each other because of different outlooks on life and the buying process I for one don’t want to live in an echo chamber of over exuberance. Live and let live

I had the hardtop z4M…. Great car!!

Coming to a forum and then complaining that people on the forum are expressing opinions you disagree with feels somewhat surreal… aren’t forums about engaging with peoples opinions rather than putting them down for having opinions? .
