If you PM your mobile number I can add you to the group.

As previously indicated I am unable to attend.

Will this be available in the TLF store?

Ooo I’ve never administered the Birch before 🤣

If they get type approval 🤣 I heard they are also bringing out a 4 cylinder version of the Emira in 2023🤣

What model is the DashCam and what is the quality like? I can’t actually see the cam in this photo any chance of taking another showing the unit. Thanks.

Jackie wasn't really sure it was you or else I would have turned back to say hello. I saw your later post, nice machine but still a fat German 🤣

Hi Mark Yes that was me and it is a very dirty Dark Verdant, heading home from Nottingham. Jackie mentioned about 20 minutes after we left that she thought she saw you. I think that is the first time I have ever been “spotted” in any of my Lotus cars. 🤣

I can also vouch for the quality of Dan’s work and have just ordered an A2 Emira plaque to go with my other plaques.

Well, I cancelled my order with Lotus for my i4 on Thursday. My initial deposit was paid on 9th July 2021, 2nd configuration deposit paid 29th April 2022 and was 'locked"in for August production, then September and then October. At the beginning of October I emailed Customer Care to ask what build week my car was scheduled for only to receive a reply saying there was a further delay and they would get back to me in a few weeks.😡 I have since paid a deposit with Lotus Glasgow for a V6 Auto in Verdant Green and will pick it up on return from holiday next months. I have been totally frustrated with the whole buying process which is completely faceless and nothing like sitting down with a salesman in the showroom with a cup of coffee.

Thanks Al. It would be great to reintroduce a regular once a month breakfast meeting. Unfortunately I am not available on 1st Sunday in November and possibly not on the 1st Sunday in December either, which is a pity as I would love to show off my new wheels 🤔😁. I will be in Switzerland as usual on various dates between January and April this year so might not be available then either. That's one of the reasons I gave up organising the meets as since retiring we do a lot of trips away plus we are up and down the A1 to visit Jackie's Mum in a care home on a monthly basis. I didn't think it was right for me to do the organising and not turn up for the meets. I hope the meets in the future will be as popular as they were in the past and hoist us back to the top of the TLF activity tree!

It was a fabulous day and great to see round the factory again and the advances they have made in the production line. Pity I have to wait until September to get mine?😧

The Episode was repeated last Sunday 24th July. I was watching and thought "I recognise that guy" and it was when I saw the Type 1 watch on his wrist and rewound to get his Dad's name that the penny dropped.

I'll be there for breakfast and the drive. First one for a long time for me.

Perhaps the owner didn't fit the plaque as the final 15 weren't delivered with the plaque attached. I received mine a couple of months after I took delivery of the car with instructions on where to place it on the glovebox lid. You mention No4 and No6 above, what are you saying? 4th and 6th from last UK spec cars? I have the certificate of provenance from Lotus and my car is 8th from last. My car came of the production line after the Stratton 7 cars were delivered and they were supposed to be last of the line! My car had the outer exhaust configuration when delivered but I didn't think it sounded like a V8 so I changed mine for the Lotus Federal Exhaust and the "cheese grater" rear valance. As far as I can recall the final edition European and Federal cars were delivered with the centre exhaust. The price of these cars is only going one way and I think £65k is a fair price to be asking for a low mileage car.

Thanks Al. Asking for a friend.

Why are the dimensions of the car not on the Lotus website?

It was a pleasure meeting you and Gina and although it was a sad day for me I take comfort from the fact that the car has gone to a true Lotus enthusiast. I look forward to following your exploits with the car and hopefully meet up at an event in the future. Enjoy.

I am about to renew my insurance on my V8 with agreed value. The insurance company have suggested £40k which I think is low. Where did you get the 2-page condition form?

I really enjoyed the Superfan Zoom call but had to leave after the unboxing. Watched it again on YouTube without the interruptions. It's just a pity that the MC did not mute all the mics until he wanted some cheering etc. Cant wait to see this car in person.

@Bibs It looks like my Inbox was 135% full! Could my change of status from "Owner" on LEGS have had something to do with this. Never had a problem before with capacity in my Inbox. I have deleted all messages now so able to PM @ajheath

Hi Ade, Yes still for sale, I'm not sure why you can't message me. I will PM you. Was it you that contacted me through Autotrader yesterday about the my Reg No F110 TUS?

Hi Andrew, Jackie and I will be at Bridge View for breakfast, Clattering Bridge and then Fife Arms. Brian

Yes, it's still there but not a lot of activity on it. If PM me your mobile I can add you to the group. Hopefully we will get back in our cars after lockdown.

I have PM'd them on Facebook asking what price.
