It's interesting how the brand carries such cache for old guys like me who have been in love with English sports cars since childhood. It's a LOTUS. We are all so pleased that the company is doing well and carrying the tradition. Ferrari and Lambo will always be in business as long as the wealthy must have toys. But for Lotus to be Lotus, there must be drivers who love the traditional ethics of the sports car.

Love how transparent Lotus have been in regards to this car's road to production, and doubly so given what a difficult period it's been recently in the world of manufacturing. It feels a real privilege to be granted access to the shop floor to witness the assembly processes and final inspection stations. Thanks to Harry for buying and Lotus Cars for sharing!

@@Turbojetkart Very sorry to hear that. Matt Windle appeared on the last Emira video on this channel and was openly discussing some of the difficulties impeding this car's release. It's unfortunate that Lotus hadn't been in direct contact with early deposits such as yourself about these matters, although given the recent state of the European economy I suppose it's fairly expected that a relatively low-volume specialty automobile might end up running into production delays. I hope it ends up being worth the wait for you, as the car still looks fantastic.

The British motoring press' willingness to call a spade a spade over the years is exactly what's made their feedback so valuable and their editorials so compelling. I hope they never change, but admittedly it does lead one to wonder what could have been, had they managed to avoid engendering cynicism in their storied home brands on so many occasions.

Happily, they're going to sell a ton of these and if they do it right they're going to have an opportunity become more of a "real" manufacturer in terms of public perception, and that will pay dividends with SUV sales and future models.

Congrats to Harry, nice to see you supporting a great British car brand. Big believer in the benefits of running in a new car even though most don’t have the patience but then I tend to keep my cars longer than most. I would swap out the engine and gearbox oil at 1000 miles personally. Lotus used to have running in oil that allowed for just the right amount of wear to bed everything in but it needed replacing at 1000 miles. I’d be interested to know what has changed.

Exactly what I thought when I saw the 10,000 mile oil change intervals in the book. That's already standard in automotive but thought that Lotus as an enthusiast brand would recommend oil change after run in period. But all in all it's Toyota engine so it'll probably be reliable either way.

Harry’s a guy I admire. As far as I can tell, he’s that rare thing, a person rich from his own work, didn’t inherit money or a business. Didn’t ruthlessly crush weaker people on the way up. Didn’t sail close to the wind legally. Instead, he followed his passion plus hard nosed business brain, forming a business that created a segment that didn’t previously exist, at least not in such a relatable way. Built the business up up himself with good, passionate colleagues, had a lot of laughs, always put out a quality product. Then, someone in the publishing consolidation game acquired his company and that was presumably his big capital gain. I did this myself on a very much smaller scale. There’s no feeling like that, a wealthy acquirer signs the final legal documentation and, after whatever the required administrative clearance processes were passed, the formal final closing occurs and then something remarkable happens to your bank account 😊 So well done, Harry. Your success & sharing your enjoyment make up a proper force for good.

yeah my nephew had a similar experience when he picked up his 911GT2 from Porsche Melbourne. Bit hard to replicate the factory experience when you are so far away. I am impressed by the Lotus factory.

Not seen you like that before, Harry. Like a teenager desperately wanting to play with his present without hearing the backstory of how they got it! Rare for you, but a joy to see. A beautiful car and I hope it's everything you wanted.

When Harry uploads a video, its like the smell of fresh coffee in the morning, you know its going to get you going.✌✌✌ You can see his excitement like a kid ready to open his Christmas gift; The beauty of being an adult, you buy yourself your Christmas gift.

Lovely, and the right colour wheels. Black wheels for folks who have never had plastic wheel trims fall off. They're a bit Vauxhall Nova, Mk 2 Astra.

I just love the ‘schoolboy’ excitement when you walk into the handover showroom. You almost, almost showed absolutely zero interest in anything Scott Walker had to say….. like a child on Christmas morning, itching to tear the wrapping off the present. Quite beautiful.

Enjoy enjoy your new car Harry, your enthusiasm is infectious. I Love the vlogs for the same reason. With all the cars you own and have access to it's fantastic that you still enjoy and get excited about the new arrival, the car is stunning. I had a smile on my face all the way through.

Wonderful to see Harry so excited. It is special to pick up a new car from the factory - I did this some years ago with our then new Mercedes and, somehow, the car then always felt special.

There's nothing like picking up new car. From the factory even more special. I picked my Mercedes slc from Auckland main dealer and it was very special and they video the whole reveal and showing you around. Very special.

One of the quickest yet most accurate engine & power train run in explanations for a new car I have seen for a long time,. Scott is quite clearly at the top of his game, it just flowed so naturally.. superb job. And lastly.... what a beautiful car, well done on the colour mix Harry... simply stunning.
