    Race to the first i4

    Are the test drive e-mails that Lotus sent this afternoon actually for the AMG? It is really unclear says First Edition and then seperately V6!! I booked to be told they are unavailable

    OK talk to me about the Alpine 110

    Glad you enjoyed it. Are the residuals still holding up? I am keen to see the A110 R in the next few weeks. Think the first are built and due in April

    Depreciation/Appreciation on New Lotus Emiras

    I wonder why there aren't extensive road tests in the media of the production cards? It's months since first delivery and didn't the media only drive very early possible pre prod cars? Seems strange

    I actually want the dark blue rather than tiffany but still got told probably won't get one next year to might after I bought the ring. Pelagos 39 I can't even try one on think they are deliberatley creating a situation

    The great big "all the customer test drives" thread

    Great write up. I have to agree with you that I don’t think it’s better to the drive than the Alpine albeit it has lots of other great attributes. If I could take the keys to either it would be the Alpine. That said the Alpine in the Emira’s body 👍

    The great big "all the customer test drives" thread

    After putting my deposit down on July 7th 2021 I finally got to see a finished car and take the test drive which was a cancelled slot at lunchtime. The hours before were torrential rain but it came over beautiful sunshine for the test drive! Lotus Silverstone were great and the route was...

    I4 build date given

    Good for you that's it a month earlier than mine but surely they should be building in sequence or planning to 9 months out? i.e. my July 7th deposit should be the same month as you! It can't be down to spec/ colour etc this far out!

    I4 build date given

    Is it a reprioritisation to produce more in other global markets? Otherwise seems not much happening for 3-4 months

    Anyone received their 30 day notification yet?

    I asked and they told me they aren't even at the planning stage yet. First deliveries Q2 23 but planning will follow the first batch whatever that means. They said my deposit was 'very early' that was was 7th July. I almost certain I will keep my Alpine but seen as I have waited this long...
