Hi ian, Just to let you know so you can update your list, stuart harris has told me i have car no. 60. Also a question for everyone, stuart told me my car would be going into lotus motorsport on the 17th and i havnt heard anything since, anyones elses car go in on this date?????? Do you have your car yet?????? From what stuart was saying on other posts, it takes 7 days from the day it goes into lotus motorsport division, so shouldn't my car have been ready on the 24th??? Any help or views on this would be very much appreciated. Thanks Lastone (ben)

Just FYI Mine went in on or around the 17th. It was completed Wednesday of the following week. Delivery took a further week to the local dealer. I am now waiting for it to be Armourfended on Monday then dealer can valet/polish it. So possible collection Monday/Turesday. Between Weds 22nd (completion) and Wed 29 (date it arrived @ Dealer) I could find out nothing about my car with regard to when it was going to be delivered, until on Wed 29th, Dealer said it should be in that day Hope this sheds some light. Regards, Stu Miles

The timescale was thought to be 1 week for Standard and 2 weeks for Ohlins but we all know how there is no such thing as a fixed timescale with the VXR production

Stu - does that mean you're getting the VXR Armourfended at the dealer? I was going to drive down to Armourfend HQ to get mine Armourfended but if they can do it at the dealer that would be ideal.

[StuVXR]

Yup the local AF agent is going to the dealer to do it. Phone AF and they will put you in contact with an agent nearer to you if you ask if there is one. The guy doing mine only lives 5 mins from me and 30mins from dealer... Just ask the dealer if it''s ok... Should be...

Excellent! Thanks Stu - It'll save me a lot of hassle if I can get it done at the dealer.

[cheeky_chops]

Missus is taking the car to Armourfend HQ (they seem to have a better reputation that the local agents) as we speak - Having the bumper, "V", bonnet strip, sill ends and "ears" for £182+vat. Its got 450miles on it and (that i can see) 1 nasty chip!!! well, nasty is about 1 mm wide but can see white GF Been away so havent driven the car for 9 days , i am SOOOOO in need of a fix

Looks ace. Any chance of a "side on" photo? Would like to get a good view of it with the hard top on.

[spratbegonda]

Looks great mate. Does the hard top cut wind noise at speed (70) much? John

Will do, am going to find a better camera

[ratboiler]

Stu I have ordered mine with a factory hard top to come fitted, is that how yours was delivered, like the other guys said lets have a side view, it looks great. Where did the number plate come from, I mean who made it?
