Sounds good to me, although to be fair, Lotus are probably In the best financial health in decades with Geely on board

Let’s hope Geely don’t become the next Evergrande!

So that is currently 5 months before delivery that you have to lock it in. So if anyone is hoping for reviews or first deliveries to see the car, they will have to wait until possibly Sept or November for that privilege. Unless lotus speed up the process.

 

[New to Lotus]

The email says if you make changes after 4th of February it will delay your car by a month, so probably still due to being an early delivery.

Just had my call. Almost as exciting as knowing the date for my first son’s birth!

As above, any changes must be confirmed before Friday to ensure delivery date.

6 months to finish the new garage then! Good to have a deadline..

 

[Yachtie]

The callers must be busy today, had my call for July delivery as above can change spec up to 4th with no delay, after that then one month delay. They wouldn't give me an idea of date, hope it's early as would like to take it on holiday at the end of July!!
Happy Days!

 

[Paul Lewis]

Just had a call. Delivery confirmed for July. Deposit place 8th July last year. Not planning any changes sticking with my original choice of Hethel yellow and black pack. Now the wait begins.

Anyone from the 9th of July been contacted yet?

Just had my call for August delivery got until 4th to alter my spec or risk going further down the queue

 

[DJS]

Well at least we know they are calling they 9th of July now, just waiting impatiently for the 10th of July now.

Thing is I’d rather have a September delivery over August so I can have the new reg plate.

Does anyone agree with that ?

I get where you are coming from but I'd take another month of summer driving in 2022 over a newer plate.

I’d go along with that, 1 month delay=6 month’s newer car🏎

Id have delayed mine for a new reg in your case however I'm in June and am putting a Lotus specific plate on it now.

Agree if I was going for a private plate the earlier the better.

 

[DJS]

Just had my call 10th July deposit August delivery. Should be happy really I guess I’ll have to get a private plate.
