Hmmmm... 1 out of 5 in the time we have had them since being built and not properly advertised doesn't seem that good. LOL. Lets be realistic! The issue we have had with these is that they were never really advertised properly from start which was a fault of ours to start with from day 1. Its such a shame really as these are pretty damn awesome and blisteringly quick. Lets not beat around the bush either, they are really more aimed at the European Market and to someone that wants something that is as close to a track car as possible whilst still having the opportunity to utilize these beasts on the road if needs be. We can convert them to right hand drive but the costs involved are ridiculous. I think that if they were right hand drive we may well have sold more but who knows. So to summarize if someone wants something unique, looks amazing, is fast, trackable, road usable, sounds amazing and wants something hardly anyone else is ever going to have the chance of owning then these are the perfect cars. Its for someone that wants to keep for a long time in their collection and bring out on special occasions. Trust me these Stratton GT's are pretty special.

Good morning to everyone on here. We have sold the White Stratton GT and now have 4 left.

Hi What Lotus Elise model it is you are looking to trade in and would you be able to give me a few more details regarding the car (mileage etc) Kind Regards Norfolk Lotus

I agree that these are a fascinating thing. We haven't really pushed them enough but I think now is the time to really showcase what these are all about. Please feel free to contact me on marc@strattonmotorcompany.com so we can discuss further. Best wishes, Marc

You could be onto something, what would you suggest?

Afternoon, Please feel free to check out our YouTube channel to see some videos of the Stratton GT's Only a quick video of each car but nice to see. Regards, Marc @ Norfolk Lotus (Stratton Motor Company)

Hi everyone, Its interesting to see everyone's views on our Stratton GT's and my apologies we haven't been involved in these discussions. We have been going through a shake up on the social media front and internet front recently and are now at the point where we will hopefully be getting more involved in as many of these forum discussions as possible. Please feel free to ask questions and we will try to answer as much as we can on these amazing Stratton GT's. Regards, Marc @ Norfolk Lotus (Stratton Motor Company)

Hi Danny, No date as yet, 6 people have showed an interest. What may be a good idea is to tie this in to my Open Day at the dealership? Any thoughts gents? Saturday May 11th? How does this sit with people? ....

Gauging interest for a weekend Summer meet for owners of the unique Lotus Exige LF1 Hopefully congregating at my Lotus dealership in Long Stratton Norfolk for coffee followed by a spirited drive across the Norfolk countryside to the factory for a Classic Team Lotus tour at their new facilities followed by a spot of lunch at the Lotus Pub The Bird In Hand Wreningham just around the corner from the main factory. Other options could include participating in an Exige experience at Hethel with the Lotus Driving Academy on the same day if we get organised and plan it in well enough in advance. Please tag any LF1 Owner that is UK based that may be interested in this event, lets see how many LF1's we can get together and see if we can create quite a spectacle!
