Never let anyone wash it other than a professional detailed or yourself.

They’re too afraid to send me one

I wish we had the Lemon Law in the UK. I have finally given up on ever getting my car back from Lotus (it’s now been almost 8 months). Matt Windle doesn’t care, he doesn’t pick up his phone, he doesn’t answer emails. Lotus Colchester are lying to Lotus customer care saying they’ve been in...

Have you tried Lotus Customer Care?!!1!1!1

I’m glad mine doesn’t have it.

I’d order the car exactly as the speck’ I’ve got but add two options - Reliability and customer service.

I’d order mine without doors……..

If by some miracle my warranty is complete, then I’ll be there

No, he wouldn’t even answer his phone, emails or registered letters, sent directly to him.

63 days out of 365? Sounds like a good one to me! I’ve had mine for 222 days, but it’s been in my possession for just 45 of those.

I was a bit bothered that no one wanted to look at my Volvo! 😜

Hopefully there’ll be a Magma in the bunch next time! 9not to mention better weather). Great to meet everyone.

Yes, I’ll be turning up……in my Volvo 😩 What time did we say?

Don’t worry, I’m fine with it. It’s Lotus that’s pissing me off!

Rather unsurprisingly, Lotus customer ‘care’, have not been in touch. So if we plan to meet on Sunday, then I will be in a courtesy car. As for the other dates, the only one’s I can do are: the 6thad 7th September.

I was expecting it in around 2 weeks, but had a call from Lotus CC today and it’s up in the air at the moment. Will hopefully know more tomorrow

Mines Magma with yellow calipers, so perfect for me also, but not at that price.

Sorry about that chaps, but Lotus……. My car should be back with me in 3 weeks.

Dealer fit? I’d rather do it myself, blindfolded, while wrestling a gorilla!

2026?😉

Just had confirmation from Colchester, my car will NOT be ready in time. So my only option is to turn up in a courtesy cat…😩

No issue for me

……I thank you!

I honestly don’t know at the moment. I’ll be chasing them next week tor an update.

I’ve got to have one of those!

None of those issues.

The Emira has sold pretty well, but I suspect it hasn't made them much if any money. The warranty costs alone must be wiping out a huge chunk of profit. I’d love to know how much of a loss they made on my car! (mine could be the reason they could close Hethel!)

The buck stops at the MD. You can’t change culture from the bottom up, it’s a top down process. The feeling a lot of people have got of Lotus is that they didn’t. /don’t care about their customers. I know of a few people who’ve contacted Matt Windle directly and got either no response or a less...

Oh no! If we wait until we’re both on the road, it might be 2026!

When you read that, you have to ask the question why Geely promoted Matt Windle?

I’m hoping my car will be back from Lotus Colchester by then. If not, I’ll have to be in my courtesy car!

I was in Geneva a couple of weeks back and saw an Evora. Not that many made, so presume it would be pretty rare in Switzerland.

Sounds like I’ve been reasonable lucky (not with the car of course, that’s a different story), but I’ve had two courtesy cars, one for the 5 months the car was last in for warranty and I’ve just been given an XC40 this time, while they repair the the things they missed last time and things they...

Any manual gearbox will do, other than the one they currently fit to the V6!

To be clear, I’m not an electric car fan however, statistically an ICE car is more likely to go up in flames than an electric car. For sure, the number isn’t zero, but it’s been blown out of proportion by people with a vested interest in their failure and/or people not wanting to let go of...
