Testdrive Questions

[Newromancer]

I am scheduled for a test drive tomorrow.

Besides the standard stuff, are there any Lotus specific questions worth asking?

Question he will most likely going to avoid answering straight:

• Expected depreciation? (My guess is fearfully close to 800£ a month.)
• Maintenance costs? (My guess is something between 1 and 2k a year. Hopefully considerably closer to 1000£.) Does anybody know yet how much services will be?
• Reliability issues.?(It is a brand new Lotus – who are we going to kid?)
• How much room for discount is in the list price?

Thanks,
Christian!
