about 20 Evoras, 2 Esprits, a few Elans,

At Hethel today for the SELOC Sprint championship and there are about 20 Elises parked in a cordoned off compound all waiting headlights. Most had a mixed unmatched set of wheels, so I presume they have been pulled off the line awaiting parts. There was also a very 'different' looking Evora S in battleship grey parked in amongst them. Looked VERY nice...

I went round the Lotus factory sometime last year and saw the same thing, loads of cars awaiting headlights, must be a supply issue.

Or lotus not paying the bills?

There was an issue with Evora headlights, you were supposed to order xenons as an option but because of a supply issue even the people who had not specified and paid for xenons got them.

Probably the same cars that haven't moved.

try ordering a car without lights and see how much of a discount you get. Or a car with one of each type of wheel....
