Lotus UK offloading cars to this non Lotus dealership?

[Man.v.Cars]

44 Emiras/Eletres for sale at this independent UK dealership, another member mentioned his car had been bought back by Lotus and it turned up here.

I appreciate Lotus need to sell the cars somewhere but this is depressing prices for all UK owners. The discount on some of the Eletres is crazy.

During the latest earnings call, Lotus Technology said that during Q4 they would actively clear out their stock of vehicles, including via discounting to wholesalers, so that they can be "clean" and have no discounting in 2025 when they launch the TYP 134.

This overhang of vehicles is mostly just a UK issue. You can see why UK dealers like B&C have terminated their contract with Lotus . . . how the hell do you run a dealership when this is happening?!
