Nothing to worry about, they are only moving into the service dept round the corner.

They are still servicing, but may be pulling out of selling.

I was in their showroom a couple of weekends ago and saw only 2 exiges and a couple of elises all second hand.
Also noticed they had no Lotus demonstrators on the forecort - Sold was the asnswer i was given.
Never known them not to have at least an elise and exige outside.
I think it may be bad news but i hope not as i rate them highly.They are the second oldest Lotus dealership in the world apparently.

Hi Peter

Glad to hear you're still here - I was worried when I first saw this thread. Your service has always been excellent and so may it continue. See you soon!

BTW think you need to update your customer database as I've not received any mailings from you recently?

Why is it that when you hear about someone being second something or other you always want to know who is first smile

Where did you get this information from, or is it just your speculation?
