Even with two years of Covid think we are well over low miles

Happy Christmas all Lotus fans

We have now placed a deposit with our local Lotus retailer/dealership
-
Thanks @exeterjeep and @Bravo73 @TomE£1000.00 deposit?
-
Has anyone placed an early deposit, was this with your dealer or direct with Lotus?

Not wanting to get into a debate, however our car was built May 2018 (we actually went to the factory 22nd May during its build) and it was not the last UK GT430 off the production line
-
Thanks Scott
-
If the 430 didn't make it to production then we would have gone Sport 410
-
Thanks Keith
-
We had the diamond cut wheels on the Exige roadster (2015-2018) with no issues

Oh my it took ages to get into the internet/modern technology mode end of last century early 2000’s looks like we might need a degree in computer technology for these newer/latest Lotus cars me not the the rest of you intelligent people

Poll - when will you be happy to fully commit to buy
DarrylV8 replied to Beady's topic in Emira Chat
yet when the GT430 was introduced Lotus only planned to sell 6 cars to the UK market, i believe 23(?) were actually sold so JMG must have done something right? -
Having spoken at length with R&H engineers at Lotus including winter tyres, Lotus R&H team spent a lot of time winter driving mule cars in Sweden "Tour mode has been tuned for all conditions including winter conditions." As for winter tyres, they are 235/35/20 front and 285/30/20 rear Michelin PA4 and will fit on the standard size rims

With such excellent service from the staff yesterday thought I’d better give the news on prices as the venue is likely to hold further meetings next year. Pot of coffee £4.50 Bacon cob/bap £4.50

Drivers Pack and Suspension/Tyre Choices
DarrylV8 replied to Evotion's topic in Ride/Handling/Suspension/Brakes/Wheels/Tyres
For my two pence, touring if you don’t intend to regularly track and Goodyear’s if you want to drive all weathers. If you’re going to regularly track and not use in heavy rain use Sports and Cup 2, if you are going to use in winter then put Michelin PA4 on. -
@phil flasha couple of minutes before ours gives a reading, it might not be that long but certainly not giving a reading on ignition on

Hi Cet, welcome to TLF although our previous Evora was a +2 and regularly took our eldest grandson out, I think you would be better going to a dealer who has a 400 +2 with your children and see if they are ok with the seating as for leaving the 400 outside all year you may wish to use a good quality outdoor cover if only to protect from UV and bird droppings
