It's been over a month and a half since my car went into the shop, and now I find out that I have to wait another two weeks just for the special glue to arrive from England. Apparently the carbon fiber crash box is glued to the frame with that special lotus glue which happens to be a hazardous material and must go through customs. I can't believe Lotus didn’t plan on having any of this glue in the states (or any of the parts for that matter.) I have been so disappointed with Lotus as a company, it seems like they have let me down every step of the way. From lack of information in the early stages to not being prepared to fix these cars in anywhere near a timely manner, or there lame 3 year warranty, how about the 300 bucks I had to pay for the 1k checkup. Don't get me wrong, I love my car, but I have already forgotten what it is like to drive it. I'm not sure I will want to drive it when I get it back, I will be too afraid something else will happen to it and it will be gone for another couple of months.
Has anyone else had to wait on this glue? If so can you tell me what dealer to contact in the hopes they may have some. Maybe it will expedite this already painstaking long process.
