Just thought I'd give an update for anyone else who may cancel from the UK.
I requested my deposit back on the 2nd Oct (By email), I then chased up a week later by phone because I had no reply, and the money was back in my account on the 16th, which I was happy about.
Good luck everyone, I'm...
I'm really looking forward to it, I'm planning on picking it up on Tue, it's definitely going to be a big hike from the V8 which, in itself was fine but I need an Auto now , hence the Emira I4 FE deposit.
I think I remember seeing your post about the G86, I saw my first one on the wknd, it...
That's good news Jim, I initially started to think about the refund in the same way. Why wait for an FE14 for more money than a new/nearly new V6 Auto, especially with the reviews about the AMG gearbox and no solid info on delivery dates.
Makes total sense. Congratulations(y)
It is sad that Lotus has behaved the way they have over these painful 2 1/2 yrs. As a long time Lotus owner, I really hoped they had changed, but I'm also not surprised.
Such a wasted opportunity :(
One week on from sending an Email to Lotus CC to request the return of my deposit, and I' haven't had a reply even after asking for confirmation of the Email:(.
I suppose I am going to have to try and get through by phone, not sure how hard that is these days 🤷♂️
Its lots of reasons to be honest, all well documented by others.
Deliveries far later than expected, which in turn has meant that the prices have increased (Even though we were reassured that wouldn't happen). The increased prices have left me looking at alternatives (Mostly used Vehicles)...
Well after putting my deposit down on 7th July 21, I've sent an Email today to CC to request a return to my £5K deposit.
Thanks for the support received on here, its a great forum, especially TomE who has been brilliant from day one.
Here's hoping my refund doesn't take too long
