certificate of provenance

From memory used to be £25 max, for the paperwork, so just another money spinner imho for some additional trinkets.

It used to be the case that you could negotiate with your dealer to have it included in your purchase. With the new direct model in the UK and many US dealers committing to no markups there may be limited margin for them to do it.

I agree it would be a nice gesture from Lotus to at least include the certificate, even if not the whole bundle. I've suggested a few ideas like this in my feedback to Lotus, things they could send to deposit holders as part of the journey through to delivery.

I won't share what I've suggested yet, then hopefully Lotus will adopt some of them and you'll get a few nice surprises!
I posted an example of one here:
Does Lotus still include the “Hand Made By……” badge in the cabin?
 
Not with the Emira. I don’t think that’s something Lotus wants to promote anymore.
 
Given that a lot of the information in the provenance pack is historic, e.g. how many cars were produced in the same specification per year, etc. I'm not sure of the value of purchasing it when the car is new - maybe better to wait a year or two?

Probably for that reason Lotus now supply them with every approved used car sold in the UK....
