Contacted Customer Care and they came back Very quickly with a link to the configurator (y) .
Now for the difficult bit of choosing between my two preferred colours and interior :)
I put my deposit down on the 7th July with the latest expectation of putting the 2nd deposit on the 8th April for the I4FE. Haven't had any other email or comms regarding the configurator🤷♂️.
There quite a few of us from what I can see, along with a few close to the border, will be good for a few trisp out to the Beacons on a nice Sunday morning👌
That's good to know(y)
I haven't had any Email to configure as of yet, I placed my original deposit on the 7th July.
Was the 2nd deposit amount £3000 as anticipated?
With all due respect, you're missing what most of us have said. We fully understand the complications regarding the sourcing and manufacturing and we are not expecting a delivery date for the I4FE at this point. We are awaiting to configure the car and pay the second deposit. Lotus told us by...
^^This 100%, I haven't got a problem with delays, but there's no excuse for giving endless time lines that don't happen with no communication updates whatsoever, unless we make contact with Lotus.
Would be good to meet up at some point Tom if your going to be in this neck of the woods. Would certainly like to buy you a pint/coffee, for the support you give/have given us👍
Hi Paul, would love to come and have a look at your car when you have it. I'm going i4, so I won't get mine until later this year at the earliest.
Looking at your signature pic, it looks like we are both going for yellow and black pack, will be good for me to see it in the flesh👌
This is the reply I had from customer care on Wednesday when I asked about the second deposits for the I4FE
Thank you for your email.
I apologise we have not yet had communication from factory on early depositors proceeding with their configurations however we do expect this to be very soon...
I Just received it also.
It states that the is £74,515 OTR.
The configurator shows it as £71,995 with no options. Does that mean that the Delivery/Tax etc is going to be £2,520?
That was a bit more than I was anticipating considering the Car Tax for the I4 should be less than the V6.
It also...
I'd like to say that I was surprised, but I'd be lying😀 , but as you say and we all keep on saying. Please communicate with us and keep us upto date. It really isn't that difficult and saves us emailing and wasting both parties time. I'm fed up of giving family and friends updates when they...
I emailed Lotus today because the last email I had in March was that the 2nd deposit for I4 FE cars would be payable on the 8th April, the email stated that I would receive communication before to discuss the deposit. I haven't had any further comms, so I emailed for some clarification.
It looks...
It's personal taste obviously, no right/no wrong, I'm also going for, as someone noted previously - Dog Dick red interior :p that is lambasted by Lotus. I have never classed myself as having good taste thou :LOL:
I agree, it's the one thing that I haven't waivered on from the start. Can't wait for the lucky guys to be getting their cars in June so that we can see some more realistic photos in different lighting situations
Thanks tom, that was my though too regarding the privacy glass, I know it's only a small window but I think it makes a difference. I started off wanting the black wheels, then changed my mind to the diamond cut on the configurator. The latest photos of a real car have complicated things...
I watched the Eletre reveal and was pleased to see the Hethel Yellow on show, the outside spec was what I was planning to Order on the 8th.
However, I'm not sure on the wheels now, it all looks so different in my eyes to the configurator, not sure why. Does the above car not have Privacy glass...
Thanks Jim👍i think thats what I heard some time ago although I did seem to remember someone saying they paid £4k paying as a new depositer hence my question. I paid £2k in July as you did, so looks like £3k this time👍
