Mate I would take what Aussie reports say with a grain of salt. They are incorrect 9 times out of 10 over here. They even said the the V6 FE comes with a full suite of safety aids that we know is totally incorrect.

To be honest I’ve been following up Lotus Australia and the head office UK hasn’t even said a thing to them in relation to an update where the first batch of cars are at or will be arriving down under.

It’s a fact that Lotus head office have a severe lack of communication and information management protocols with costumers and their dealer network.

It's based on an interview with Matt Windle in Autocar UK, which is linked. This isn't Australian market speculation.
