Anyone received their 30 day notification yet?

Someone on Facebook claims their car is on their way to be delivered.

If we don't receive a notification next week, or the week after, or the week after that......then the plan is tits up!
I think it's August next week in Hethel and thus the 30-day
notification should kick in for those September deliveries!

Seems contrary to what Lotus told me on Friday - no customer cars completed yet and no customer deliveries until September.

Might be a dealer talking about his demo car. Or perhaps he's getting the Nimbus car we saw in the Matt Windle video in June?

Well, at least we will get a 72 plate on our cars

I find that very difficult to believe.

Is that the claimed first customer car that appears not to be quite finished

It's either that or BS!

This one from the Matt Windle update video in June, which claimed to have been filmed on 10 June and with this being the first customer car to be completed. Note that this is a RHD car, so that seems unlikely to be the car for a customer in Belgium.

Fishy to me, there was another guy from Belgium posting on FB recently to say he was getting a car in August 2022 and he only put his first deposit down in December 2021.. These guys are either trolling, or there is a dealer in Belgium telling them some real whoppers

Yes, it makes no sence at all. I doubt that any cars will be in customer hands before September.

Having read the post and noticed that he says “ Our Emira” is on its way, suggests he works for a dealer

...or Lotus aren't telling the Belgian dealers the right info or they were told August weeks ago and it's never been updated.

I thought that too. And he seems quite specific about it having left the factory. If the UK and mainland European demo cars are due at dealers in August week 2 or 3, then it's possible the Belgian demo cars have just left Hethel.

Yes, it could be possible. The other guy from Belgium posting on Facebook didn’t sound credible

Last info my dealer received is demo cars expected for mid-August. He is still waiting for confirmation…

Just think, tomorrow we can say we are getting our cars next month
