Lotus Cars Welcomes New Addition To Uk Dealer Network

Lotus Cars Ltd, the sportscar division of Group Lotus plc, is delighted to announce the opening of its latest

dealership located in the elegant spa town of Harrogate.

DriveStyle Horseless Carriages has a fantastic motorsport themed launch planned for Thursday 29th

November. It will start at 6.00pm and invited guests can expect to enjoy race-meeting style refreshments whilst

admiring Lotus' latest sportscar offerings including the recently launched 2008 model year Exige S with

Performance Pack and the stunning Exige GT3 Concept model.

Mike Kimberley, CEO of Group Lotus comments "I would like to welcome DriveStyle to the Lotus community.

We are at a very exciting stage of our development, with two new cars due by early 2009 and 2010. During this

period of evolution we are focusing on the Brand Image and Iconic Lotus DNA of the Lotus of tomorrow. That's

why we are so pleased to team up with DriveStyle who, with their enthusiastic approach, is a perfect

compliment to the prime market of Harrogate. DriveStyle are the second dealership that we have appointed in

this important region so now there is even more opportunity for drivers to take to the wonderful driving roads of

Yorkshire and the Dales."

Steve Williams, Managing Director of DriveStyle said, "We are delighted to take on the Lotus franchise for

Harrogate, an area which abounds with sports car enthusiasts, in particular classic British brands. We aim to

provide our Lotus customers with a bespoke one-stop-shop approach, merging the modern lifestyle image of

DriveStyle with a traditional attitude to customer service. It is important to us that our customers are able to

discuss their car with our trained Lotus specialists.

"Our services include the sale of new and pre-owned Lotus cars, competitive part-exchanges, service, body

and paint repairs and the full Lotus aftersales and accessory ranges. Each DriveStyle customer will also

receive our exclusive 'Service Plus' loyalty package offering a range of aftersales benefits and services that

could result in savings in excess of £1000 over a 3 year ownership cycle. There will also be 2 DriveStyle track

days in 2008 hosted by professional racing drivers. We intend to fully support the local owners club, offering

them the use of the showroom for club meetings and driveouts.

"We are building our stock of pre-owned Lotus cars and invite current Lotus owners to take advantage of the

brand's fantastic resale value and part-exchange their old car for a new Elise, Exige or Europa. All in all, our

enthusiastic team aim to further develop the exciting Lotus brand throughout our region in 2008 and beyond."

  • What is the point of a Lotus these days?

    I have recently changed my Daily from a dirty diesel to an electric.  It struck me that the 0-60 times were almost identical, possibly quicker, to the Exige so my thought was, if comfortable family cars with suitcase room are now performing so well, are our cars becoming obsolete? Has the acceleration potential of EV’s made traditional sports cars meaningless? In an era where electric motor torque is rewriting the rules of straight‑line acceleration, it’s easy to forget what “fast” use

    LOTUS Action Camera Mod for rear view mirror

    Hi, my name is Marco and I'm from Liverpool, I'm new to this forum and new to Lotus. Towards the end of last year I started to get that itch of wanting a sporty fun car again (I had owned a couple of Mk4 Supras between 2000 & 2009) I was looking for a car that was not too big as it needed to fit into my narrow garage so I could hook it up to a trickle charger as it was not going to be a daily driver. I decided that an Elise would be perfect, after searching for months for the

    Toxic Green S-Cup - (Aka Grogu)

    Hi all as with most of my cars I thought I’d start a bit of a build thread. However unlike most cars which I bought and built up to be highly modified the plans for the lotus are quite different and so this will be more thread of its life in my ownership. I have also created a Facebook page called “Toxic Green S-Cup - (Aka Grogu)” containing images of its progress pre and post purchase.

    Newbie question

    As the title suggests , a newbie query. I have just bought an S2 Elise , 2007 with the Toyota 1ZZ power unit in ‘ touring spec’. That means electric windows, a radio and , err, not sure what else. Anyway, that is not the subject of the query. The car is blue with a cream interior. The latter I don’t plan to keep. In fact , already bought some equivalent second hand door cards in black and am looking hard at a pair of Corbeau LE seats . So, first part of my query centres on those Corbeau seats. A
