Dazza_22 Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 I'm planning a trip to the uk later this year and hope to include a tour of the Lotus factory. I've heard that you can get certificates detailing the history of your car. I have a few questions. 1. What is actually on the certificates? 2. How much do they cost? 3. Do you think they are worth it? And 4. How do you go about organising one? Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WausauLotus Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 (edited) Take a look at this thread. I think I paid about $35 US and it's really a nice addition to your paperwork. Can't address the tour issue. E-mail Andy Graham for more info. His e-mail address in in the thread Good luck!

Lex Templar Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Andy was great, mine is getting done as we speak. For another £10 he will find out how many other cars in he same colour combination were made That year. Great stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lex Templar Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 It's a nice touch, it definately feels like Lotus are making a huge effort, along with the website and magazine, clothing etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
