Did you get anywhere with this? Have you just been calling/chasing the normal CS staff? I'm 18 working days in and still no refund. Chased today and just get the usual fobbing off "we need to pass this to our finance team". Unreal.

Amazing!!! Congrats!

Are Lotus actually still delivering cars? It seems to have all gone a little quiet, and I've now read of two people who were meant to get their cars a couple of weeks ago but haven't heard a peep!

Fantastic photos!!

Fantastic photos!!

I'd honestly say that my photo reflects what I saw in real life at that moment in time, but as soon as the sun hits it then there's a lot more colour.

DV compared with an Evora - It's a shame (IMO) that it's so dark.

My turn for a test drive today, finally! I was very pleased to see that the weather Gods looked upon me favourably and I had good roads. Can't really add anything over the above reviews, but my key takeaways: 1. Fit and finish was great 2. Exhaust note in Sport was disappointingly quiet, which...

I'm an 8th July depositor with a March build, April delivery slot.....apparently :rolleyes: (auto box)

Wonder what happened here...

Awful, I agree. What a boring, common looking typeface.

What Car have just published a review: https://www.whatcar.com/lotus/emira/coupe/review/n25278

I find it quite shambolic that they haven't run the cars in prior to giving them to dealers for demos... How many miles has the B&C car done now?

Isn't this the Collecting Cars yellow one? https://www.scott-hardy.co.uk/used-lotus-emira--macclesfield-cheshire-4803084 I don't understand how on earth they think they'll get £105k when clearly all the market is willing to pay is £90k ish? What benefit is there buying a brand new car from a...

Exactly. Former 996 owner, turned 991 owner and recently sold the 991 to make way for the Emira. 911 is of course iconic but the exotic looks of the Emira make it a very interesting prospect. Also....911 gearing way too long to enjoy on the roads and wayyyyyyy too much tyre/road noise (refer...

£71500 after only 4 hours! Still 7 days to go haha!

Congrats, that's exactly my spec too aside from the caliper colour!

Spoke to CS at lunchtime today following the non-receipt of the test drive email and they said they would "try and get another email sent out to me". "Try"?!!?!? I said it's really not very hard to just re-send the email but apparently for them it is due to the mass-sending software they use...

Wow this is shocking, still not received my test drive email and have been too busy today to call CS. If my dealer (B&C) are booked up until Jan/Feb already then that's simply unacceptable from Lotus. I'll be calling them tomorrow and ensuring they do something about this.

Ermmmm has anyone else not received a test drive email? I'm an 8th July depositor and every other email has been received at the same time as others! :(

What about B&C??

The car themed watch from my collection, which incidentally is for sale at the moment!

Is yours an auto too?

Thank you all, all valid comments that make sense.

The reason I'm asking (sorry, probably should have clarified this on my first post), is that it would be useful to start seeing real examples being delivered in the UK/dealer demos I could be tempted to change my colour combo. So, I'd want to delay in order to get more real life experience of...

Alas he is not a mere mortal like me haha!

I'm sure this has been covered amongst the various threads but it was hard to search for. Is anyone with a "November" or "December" delivery thinking of delaying delivery until, say, March/April? Is such a thing able to be requested to Lotus, i.e. do they have the flexibility to do this or do...

Strange, I'm sure Scott told me back at the original Bell & Colvill reveal that there would be a c. 1000 mile oil change.

Sorry that I'm probably late to the party here but why is it seemingly so hard to get Type Approval for an auto?

Were there official invites to this event? I've opted for home delivery but servicing to be done at B&C (info given to Lotus CS when they called a few months ago), so would have thought I'd be on their 'list'. Long time B&C customer too.........

Ermmm is it just me who thinks that video is laughable? Some lovely shots of the car but to 'brag' about the practicality showcasing features that you get as standard on a Corsa is hilarious! Yes yes I know it's a new thing for Lotus and that's what they're getting at but I'm not sure the...

I asked the question regarding quality of the handover and was told that it would be exactly the same as the factory/a dealer. I'll believe it when I see it!

Epic!

8 July deposit, and confirmed October production. Silver wheels and auto box in-case any one wants to relate my date to spec...

Credit to that gentleman from Instagram. Apologies if this has already been posted!

Just phoned to get an idea of how long my original July build/August delivery has slipped by as per the recent posters in this thread, but CC wouldn't tell me anything. No details were requested from me in terms of finding my precise order, and I was simply told to expect an email which will be...

That response is utterly comical. So they have enough guts to put it on possibly the world's biggest automotive stage being the Top Gear "studio" but they won't go and hire a decent photographer and get some photos? Lost for words!

I wonder what the additional cost will be
