well the car needs a PDI

apparently PDI involves checking fluids etc plus a 30 mile drive by a technician :o

so I said hold on PDI at moment

What, you mean Lotus didn't test drive it :blink: Tell 'em to take a hike :beat: ffs

Looking forward to a ride Mani ;)

I thought Lotus took it round the track to test everything was fine and bolted together. It could be the dealers way of all getting a blast in a VXR. Oh and everyone knows you can never plan to do just 30 miles in the vx. It always seems to be 60 or even 70 :rolleyes:

spoke to Stu about the PDi requiring a test drive.... load of bullocks! for info PDi does not require some technician to test drive your beloved....it appears some dealers talk a load of C%$£! so...I told the dealer....no PDI please. Apparently all a PDI is to check fluids and make sure car is ok. Since the VXR has already been to Lotus motorsport for a makeover...its less important. And plus if something does fall off.....I want Lotus to have a look at it not a VXL garage! Foxy...your down for a ride...I'll send you a ticket :P Mani

PDi, all tis is ,is a check that everthing is where its supposed to be and legal, not a shake-down.
