cheeky bar-stewards!
Discussion
Just had a call from Meridien Modena, completely out of the blue... I've bought two Elises and my GTV from them in the past.
They left a message on my answerphone which went pretty much along the lines of:-
"Hi there Alex, it's $%£% from Meridien here. Just thought I'd let you know that your new Elise 111R is waiting here for you to pick it up, so you can change from that 'Green' thing you have at the moment."
The worrying thing is, that if I wasn't in the middle of buying another property, I would probably be popping down there to have a look. They would always be my first choice for buying a Lotus as they give you a fantastic 1yr warranty designed for their Ferraris & Maseratis and usually send the car off to the local Lotus main stealer for a full service before handing it over.
I guess this one will pass me by, but if anyone is in the market for a 111R, definitely give Meridien a look.... regardless of how cheeky they are!

as a retail outlet they have to by law.if you buy a car from a dealer and they say the old 90 day m'larcky take them to court, the beak will stick up for the general public over a car dealer any day of the week, and any dealer worth their cockney accent will tell you the same
unless they want you to think otherwise

Sounds like a good,tenascious, original sales pitch to me if not a tad cheeky. They left a message on my answerphone which went pretty much along the lines of:-
