Lotus of DC

I live in Maryland. I transferred my order from Philly to Rockville when i heard a dealership was opening in Maryland. I received my Alantis Blue I4 on Dec 26th. They are OK. their lotus franchise is small, and they halted production on their showroom, so cars are delivered at the Mazda dealership. They only have one lotus tech, so you have to call and schedule service. 2-3 weeks seems the average for service. There tech is very nice and helpful. Not sure of his experience. I gave them the M139 service bulletin on how to flush the system for the sand-casting issue, but they did their own thing, and the fault returned. They don't have a loaner car program for Lotus so if you drop off you need a ride home. I am dealing with the thermostat/ casting sand fault again with them. Because they are new most of my info comes from this forum. I was told that lotus requires a showroom to keep their Francise so we will see if they last. On a scale of 1-10 i will give them a 6.5-7.
My car had a few minor issues ( telematics, parking sensor, radio, & multiple software updates.) that needed attention. The service writer, Anton, is a nice fellow, good listener and wants to please the client. You do need to schedule 2-3 weeks out and leave your Emira for a few days. I believe they have access to only one lift. The service department transported me to and from the Metro station. Looking back they deserve a thumbs up.
Anton and Miguel are awesome. I just wish the dealership supported the Lotus brand more.
