Philsport300

I was number four in the queue, deposit placed first week May, prior to the July reveal. I cancelled in December.Finally got my deposit back at the end of January after many calls to customer services, who I might add, told me the delay had been due to my card expiring. This was wrong as I paid with a bank transfer!!!. The worst experience I have had buying a car. Ive been a loyal customer of Lotus for over 30 years. Lotus version 2.0 are a shower of shite. Anybody with an ounce of common sense would see that the new way of purchasing was wrong, they aren't selling white goods. I also think the plan to go fully electric is misjudged. It seems that Lotus ver 2.0 love you if you are a social media bullshitter who doesn't really give a toss about Lotus. ( Harry Metcalf not included) Phil

South West Lotus rebuild the gearbox and shim it correctly, something Lotus don't do. The result is that the transmission whine is gone

I know, thats where Im at. I used to own yellow SR Na, should never have sold it.

Im now looking at any colour.

Still not got any further with my search for a nice Evora Na. Does anyone have one they wish to part with?.

I’m after a low mileage Sports racer, preferably Na in motorsport green Phil

Hi Im looking for a really nice late model Excel. Must have leather and aircon. Car is for keeps. My first Lotus was an Excel. Phil

Did you manage to sort an S4?

I will be taking the fancy fake exhaust tips off and putting something more genuine on. I thought Audi were the main culprits when it came to fakery !!

I had an Evora Sports racer in yellow with black pack. Would I have black pack again, yes but it really needs serious maintenance to keep it swirl free, it does concern me for sure.

Im glad that Im not the only one who thinks the interior is the weak point. Its boring and tft displays and touchscreens just make it like any other car. I would have prefered an analogue rev counter as the main focal point with digital speed and other info. Im not a porsche fan, far from it, but they seem to have it nailed on. Prefer the set up in the Exige. Looking forward to seeing the car on the 18th at Nottingham.

I know thats not black, but it does look black and stunning 🤔🤔

Deposit paid 4th May, V6 manual for sure.

Deposit paid beginning of May 😊

Yes, I had the rear spoiler sorted snd the correct side skirts. There were things that Lotus did during its rebuild that were not correct and V8 parts had been used. The car drove fantastic, but it will always have the scandal green in its past. I would have another Sport 300 any day, but one with a perfect history.
