    Prices increase update from Lotus - and stopping of reservations for V6 FE

    Im sure Matt had good intentions when he made the video about a price pledge but he can’t see into the future. The debacle lies with operations who can’t build them. Be thankful it’s a small rise, Cadburys put their chocolate up by 25% and offered slightly less for that increased price. You are...

    Prices increase update from Lotus - and stopping of reservations for V6 FE

    Good luck in the courts , a video with good intentions from Matt isn't admissible evidence. Be grateful it's only a small increase. Next year it will be more again.

    Prices increase update from Lotus - and stopping of reservations for V6 FE

    But you dont have a contract, there's an option for you to purchase a car and for them to sell you one. The deposit placed isn't a contract at a specific price and isnt a contract.

    Where have you gone instead of Emira?

    I ended up buying a 21 plate Ftype Coupe 450 with all the options as I loved the vantage but not the interior. Leonard mentioned the new Ftype and I was hooked on the 5 litre engine and the looks - yes its a GT. Soon to go to Viezu for pulley and stage 1 tune taking it from 450bhp to 620 bhp.

    It's a shame Lotus chose to band improved quality as though if you say it enough it happens. Even first adopters had the luxury of knowing thousands of test car hours had ensued making sure these kind of faults aren't produced.

    I just bought my non Lotus - given account sort code , account number and name on the account - hey presto bank app validated account details - confidence restored. Who does Lotus think is going to hack its bank account, China ?? :)

    Configuration mistake on my delivered car - and Lotus won't take responsibility.

    This was partly my concern on cancelling, my checkout spec was different to that I had changed and locked in on January 2022. No one at LCS could tell me what my actual spec of car was, apparently its on different spreadsheets that have to be aggregated together. You can take the matter to the...

    Carpathian Grey, there was only 2 to choose from in the country and the one in the same town as I live didn't have all the options.

    I settled on a 2 year old V8 AWD Ftype with all the options and 6k miles on the clock, comes nest week from Kent. I loved the Noise and drana of the vantage but used prices are steep. The Ftype won because it had,In my mind, a more cohesive interior. I'd also have an AMG and R8 too. Enjoy
