Hello fellow Scottish forum member! I don't think anyone has the information you refer to yet but it must be released when the UK dealership tour starts, which cannot be more than 10-14 days time right now. At least we will have plenty of time to peruse the info before they get to Parks of Hamilton a few weeks after the tour starts.
Lotus in Epsom indicating to me today end of September they’ll have a car and price lists are released

That's good news, so price lists released end of Sept? Did they say they'll have their own car end of Sept? I thought Lotus were using the 2 show cars for the dealer network tour, starting some time in Sept?Lotus in Epsom indicating to me today end of September they’ll have a car and price lists are released

UK dealer roadshows with the show cars start mid/late Sept through to mid/late Oct. Specs and pricing will be released at the start of that.
From what we know so far, Lotus have declared an "under £60k" target UK base price, which I've been told isn't just £59,995! We don't know details of what spec that includes but it's a car you could buy at that price apparently (includes VAT but you need to add On The Road costs). From talking to Lotus folks I think you'd get a decent spec without lots of gadgets and options for £65k + OTR.
First Edition cars will have a fixed bundle of options at a discounted price. I was told £15-18k of options for £12-15k, so assume First Editions will be around £75k + OTR. Also assuming there will be a premium for the V6 of £2-3k, but is an educated guess based on chats with Lotus people and may be lower or higher. I think the auto/IPS V6 will also cost about £2k more, as it does on the Evora. Potentially you could add more to the cost of the First Editions depending on your choice of exterior colour (or all 6 may be the same cost), black pack, interior materials, lightweight wheels, Sport suspension. We'll know more details soon!
UK OTR costs include the emissions-related tax, which will depend on whether you go V6 or i4.
