thats nice. id happily have taken you if I was in the Uk also... not that far away....

congrats.... 1 day to make payment.. i wont be able to do that.... money coming from 2 countries and not moving it until i get a date.... we shall see next week maybe.. congrats again

I got an email...saying they CS..had contacted the delivery...department... to ask what was going on.. heard nothing since then... 2 days ago...

Got it... that is very poor IMO.... people do drive these cars around the EU and to have that tiny display is not good form. Even my ironic can change everything over..... oh well, not a deal breaker, but a point off...

yes but then on the screen behind the wheel, the main MPH changes to kmph? in large figures?

little monsters

They say one in the hand is better than 2 in the bush, although some times that depends on the bush..... I would, as mentioned above, get the AM. Most people think it looks great, personally I think it looks far more classy than the Emira, it looks more solid and made of metal, whereas the...

I was just starting to like you again, after stealing my car, but you've let us down... several hours later.... no rush.... any time tomorrow before 9am :)....

they will be fine..... under cover and in a heated room wont they.... haha

Can someone who has an actual car..... @prestonc who is still over the moon with it, try this and see what happens.. if it breaks, we will buy you a new one :)

yes.. i was annoyed by that also..... not great. The main velocity should be able to be changed, but looks like you cant.... not good for those of us who go back and forth!

I think its one of my favourites ever yes... not for the 90% of lotus gents I would say, but an amazing experience. if it wasn't for insurance issues and using the car out of the UK, I'd still have it.... instead of the owners of alfaholics owning it

Thats ridiculous! its certainly not the price you pay for having a cool and exotic looking car and I insist, my Ariel Nomad never got a drop of rain on the engine.... haha

My reply to the time my car has spent on the dreaded delivery spreadsheet: Customer Care 9:59 AM (17 minutes ago) Good morning Gary, Thank you for taking the time to speak with me. As discussed, I have sent a follow up with regards to the delivery dates for your...

Mine was more of a couple of grills than slats, and yes they can operate when wet, but they will also get stained water marks on them, which isn't what I want on my new Emira every time my g/f opens the boot in the freezing cold to put the heavy luggage and shopping in, while Im nice and warm in...

If it were a REAL lotus, you simply wouldn't be able to close it at all from new, no matter what height or firmness the shut/slam/nudge/press/pressure and that would mean you could not lock and put the alarm on your brand new car, while leaving it at the ariport for several days. Ohhh how I...

I was just about to say the same thing; he was meant to open it about 1/3 of the way, let the water drain and then continue to open it fully...Not rocket science, but I agree, there must be a SIMPLE design solution so all that would not be necessary, lip, half tube, whatever.... problem should...

I mean the free keyring, or the little lotus car.... dealer gifts ? Yes, you look delighted, thats great. I dont get that emotional anymore and Im only 23... no...not really. Question, I guess headlights stay on for a while when you stop the car..... I'll send you some dog food from my pair...

better to bash it on here than on the streets.. haha

so from the first picture of you celebrating at B&C, Im assuming you won the car in a competition and didnt have to pay for it, right? well seriously, glad you like it, surprised you could find it again when parked outside in the dark... ;) did you get any freebeees? from BnC? How are the door...

yeh..in 2025....

no, ive not been told where it is.... the guy was going to get back to me...... didnt.... Id expect some dates this week, but as our friend above has been awaiting much longer, well... nothing is certain. then others who started the checkout on the 25th got dates already.. NO reason or rhyme...

Yes, Ive called twice...since my 20 day ago email that I am done...today, the guy said he was going to contact the transport team or someone and see if there was an issue.. not heard back from said guy.... I should have got his email I guess as I doubt I will be contacted at all... I think the...

paint wobbles??? That doesnt sound great does it..... when litchfield have to correct the paint finish on a brand new lotus

https://www.anthonyjamescars.com/used-lotus-emira--horsham-west-sussex-4794700 yes indeed, so new they couldnt get an accurate photo..... poor showing....correct price, probably sale or return?

yes, in the middle of covid...that changed everything....... teslas made money, i lost 5% in 2 years on my nomad, made money on my defender, westfield etc... I havent lost money on any car in 3 4 years now... but that will change. 3 years ago Evora's were way down on list and you could get...

Can I interject... much depends on how you sell your car..... I had a 718 S boxster.... fully spec'd, everything, 70k new... registered in 2016 After less than 4 years, 3.5 I took it to porsche to trade it in...... 28k!!!! I didnt take it, but that was the trade in value.... 718 none V6 not...

it was a diesel convertible none the less.... ;) Yes I AGREE. the idea that there are 20 30 40% flippers is crazy. We have many many prereveal oorders on here, myself included and my intention was never to flip. However, factors, mainly lotus CS sucking any enjoyment out of the supposed...

true...ish.. there have been a few failures over the 50 odd years if we look at it.... the 993 looks great, commonly the most revired after the very early cars and the most expensive now too, a UK designer in fact, Tony Hatter FOr me, and I have never owned a new 911, only my backdate, the 992...

was it touring???? that explains everything..... an old mans car..... for sure a blue sports one will hit the right note with the younger cooler buyers... im back to 105k now for sure.. hah

I think Matt wilder himself cant save them now..... A quick release of the GT4 would help and not help at the same time.. hah

arguably.... its no where near close in terms of practicality or speed..... come on. a red line at 8300 or so and one at 6750.... You know this better than anyone The next few months are going to be very interestingggggggg

after one year is the biggest loss of course., less in the second and much less years 3 4 5, so I dont think close to 40% in 2 years is that big a deal. I bought a 6 series BMW 3 years old for 33% of its value new.... You generally lose a good 20% as you walk off the forecourt... VAT..... try...

naturally, or NONE I will admit too.... haha

again, we will never know. BUt I now disagree with low depreciation in 2 years. Im with Tom, it will loose around 30-40% in 2 years and thats not healthy compared to its rivals. There are TOO many..and all the factors you mention are against values...

we will never know will we... but this emira was never going to be a GT porshe product.. which are guaranteed to make money, always have done. I disagree respectfully, but again, with lots of cancellations we can give many reasons.....

Id rather keep my unused bluey blue BLUE one for 81k..... and I know mine wont have any faults at alllllllllllll
