Scottish Elises

This may be an unjustified gripe and down to my own naivety so I'll hold fire having a go until I get a few replies:

I just phoned MMC to check delivery date of my Elise and bring it forward by a day if possible. I was greeted with a "cannot guarantee delivery dates, it could be a week before or a week after, it's a hand built car made to order etc. etc.â€

Am i being naive? Should I have expected this?

The cars really do just turn up when Lotus send them, one of the many quirks of this lovely company.

enjoy it when it arrives

but seriously, i have never ordered a car and therefore have no experience re dates but fingers crossed for you though!

cheers guys, think i've let my excitement get in the way

Don't worry too much. I had to wait 11 months for my S1, mental torture for sure.

Mine actually arrived early, so you never know
