Gold FFM Popular Post C8RKH 6,445 Posted August 11, 2020 Gold FFM Popular Post Report Share Posted August 11, 2020 @Nelly and @Jcx as you can imagine, living with me means why wife has to put up with a lot, especially her regular run to the bottle bank and listening to my incessant grumpy whinging As a result, when we go out together she gets treated like the Queen she is. She wants it. She gets it. No questions asked. Not many wives would pick up a shovel and help to dig out and move a couple of tons of earth either. She's the sort who made the British Empire! She's my rock. 3 Quote Alcohol. Sex. Tobacco. Drugs. Chocolate. Meh! NOTHING in this world is as addictive as an Evora +0. It's not for babies! The first guy to ride a bull for fun, was a true hero.

Don.Hasi 65 Posted August 11, 2020 Report Share Posted August 11, 2020 Is the depth of the details from the production run numbers still the same kike before ? In the 1 picture of the paper with the car details und “Other mentions” is only a general figure. The old ones told also about how many were produced with the same colour, interior, LHD, autobox etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ramjet 1,090 Posted August 12, 2020 Report Share Posted August 12, 2020 I already have a COP so I am not in the market for another one. How does the little plaque work if it has your name engraved on it? What happens if you sell the car? Either the next person changes his name by deed poll or he gets an incomplete boxed COP?

Gold FFM C8RKH 6,445 Posted August 12, 2020 Gold FFM Report Share Posted August 12, 2020 I have a COP already but am going to get this new package as a keep sake.

TAR 406 Posted August 14, 2020 Report Share Posted August 14, 2020 I don't think I'd want all the extras especially for such a high price. I'd be happy with just the certificate. 🙂 1 Quote It's getting there...... Link to post Share on other sites

Probably missed the boat now. Indeed. I have a letter at zero cost, from Lotus detailing my car before they did the certificates so I have the data. I would have liked just a certificate as its a nice thing to frame and display but never had the funds to get it sorted. I can see that boat sailing away 🙂 Quote It's getting there......

Bibs 11,418 Posted August 20, 2020 Report Share Posted August 20, 2020 It's not as standard, but you can always ask your dealer for a sweetener! They can always say no, but there's no harm in trying! Just bear in mind you won't get any of the extra info, eg it's 1 of 4 in that colour etc as they MY isn't over yet so the totals aren't known.

To answer this question, no. They're still getting the info from the same source and there's not really much else that they can add to be honest. On 11/08/2020 at 17:51, TdM said: I'll wait to see if @Bibs manages to get a tie up with forum membership again... To be able to do this and offer the £60 ValetPRO kit and forum benefits, it would have to be a £175 membership and with TLF struggling as ever to get people to sign up for between £12 & £24, I don't think we'll have many takers. That said, I'll set it up and stick the renewal cost to the same as the current Gold price so the option is at least there. The first batch of certificates are almost ready to be shipped now. Thanks to everyone who has ordered and for your patience, as you can imagine there's been quite a few in the queue after the launch. 2 Quote 88 Esprit NA, 89 Esprit Turbo SE, Evora, Evora S, Evora IPS, Evora S IPS, Evora S IPS SR, Evora 400, Elise S1, Elise S1 111s, Evora GT410 Sport Evora NA For forum issues, please contact the Moderators.
