Techyd 123 1 Vehicles Report post Posted July 13 4 hours ago, NedaSay said: Yup. and few shots of the car thrown in for good measure but as they are only slithers, it is pretty hard to get an idea of the final product. I wonder if a brave person will go rogue and break the embargo, if not i guess tuesday 7pm it is then. Did they get the tech to get a full glass canopy? it looks like it. Where are you seeing the extra pictures? I can see the countdown but that’s it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MPx 210 1 Vehicles Report post Posted July 14 Did you guys miss this ad on here on the 2nd? So those of us meeting the conditions 1) Have a yellow Lotus; 2) Have nothing better to do on Tuesday; 3) Are lucky enough to be invited... ...get to go to the venue before the pukka guests arrive and get a private preview of the car. We've got a bit of driving in London to do, and a bit of Lotus eye candy to provide for the launch audience as they arrive, and we get chucked out before the real show begins....but really - how exciting is this, cant wait! 4 Quote Loving Lionel and Eleanor......missing Charlie and Sonny Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I might have some cool news I can share on Monday about the launch, watch this space! So??? He says eagerly waiting and talking about himself in the third person so as to try to distance himself from the 12 year old kid in him who is jumping up and down in expectation... Seriously this is worse than being sent to bed by my parents at xmas so as not to spoil xmas morning for everyone when I was six years old, that was a long time ago... I'm really impressed by the fact that nobody here as leaked any info ... Did Lotus menace people from sending the Triades best "sicarios" after them or something?

The Pits 4,082 1 Vehicles Report post Posted July 15 It's not easy some days but the fastest way to stop getting info from the factory is to blab it online. That guy on the playground has burnt his bridges with Lotus big time and all for what? To impress some people on an obscure car forum. It's a huge day for any Lotus fan tomorrow and it will inspire real excitement and anticipation for the future. Much like the T125 I doubt any of us here will ever drive one, few will ever see one, more's the pity. But unlike the T125, the Evija heralds a new design direction which is much more relevant for all of us here. 24 hrs from now all will be crystal clear! 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mayevora 614 Report post Posted July 15 I was lucky enough to see this moving Aston Martin Valkyrie on Saturday. A stunningly good looking and impractical new 6.5 litre V12 gullwinged Hypercar with an acceleration 0-60 of 2.5 seconds. 150 road going models that will cost between £2-3 Million. Just hopeing Lotus has something just as spectacular to unveiled tomorrow night. 1 Quote Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk - that will teach us to keep mouth shut!

Suddabym 336 Report post Posted July 16 OMG. If you have a yellow Lotus you get to be part of the launch?! Damn, damn, damn my good taste. That is so colourist! D’you think they’ll ever launch a car in ‘70’s Gold? Quote Sudders and Dany Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LotusDan 38 Report post Posted July 16 Yes I'm biased but the Type 130 looks better than the Aston Martin. Also it's testament to the pride in the company that all of Lotus has seen the car but nobody has leaked anything. 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
