Probably delivery in July

 

[DJS]

A July delivery for you then, my deposit was 10th July so probably September October for me :-(

 

[DJS]

Everyone Let's celebrate tonight as finally we have some solid communication from Lotus. Hopefully the website will work on Monday and then some builds slots will start filtering through.

Happy times

 

[SJR202]

Yep same email (minus June) but my first deposit wasnt until September. Wont be near the first but will be able to save up for longer / workout whether I can fit a car lift in the single garage!

 

[ADC]

Just found this in my inbox after watching that New Dawn documentary... Equal parts spooky and awesome

 

[Lankan]

Yep, I too received the email. Only placed my first deposit on 8th November, so definitely not in the first batch of deliveries, but that was as expected.

That's more like it Lotus. Keep it up.

 

[Daz]

Great to see people on here getting excited about their cars , I’m with you on that. Can’t wait until Monday for the new improvements to the configurator

 

[1500 GT]

Similar e-mail for me, first deposit paid on 13th July so really hoping delivery before end of August unless I'm being too optimistic.

I would suggest making contact with customer services

Spoke with Customer services last week for change of spec advice, also asked about delivery dates, was suggested to me that August might be possible, didn't pay first deposit until 26th July! Maybe he was just being nice! 🤔😁

That's good going if they can supply all those goodwood orders in a couple of months after early depositors.

I paid my deposit on the 17th July but based on how long it took to get the call for the 2nd deposit I’ve been guessing I’m close to the back of the list for the early cars and that I’ll get my car in Sept/Oct, if it comes in August it would be a nice bonus.
