Lotus Cars Reviews

Five stars for helpful and friendly staff and service.

Fantastic British sports car manufacturer !
Kind and warm reception at the security and front desk

Fantastic delivery forklift operator today. In and out in a jiffy

Visited this place through work, absolutely amazing.

It's a cute car, but it's not good to hide the problem of the hood coming off. Lotus, Elise.

A great experience to see the cars being built. Such beautiful vehicles. A place, and a company, with a great history. Take time out of your day to experience this.

Possibly the most professional receptionist - I've met. :-)

As a family intetested in both present and historical it was a pleasure to stop outside the factory. Disappointed there was no car past or present outside, but well worth a drive past.

All-day events The bronze level makes sense. I will definitely come again.

I work there. Have done since I was 19 and am 54 now. I like it

Was delivering here. Very tight security but also friendly bunch

Excellent place ... good experience onsite
Staff were polite and helpful

Did the factory tour, very good in-depth tour of the factory and classic lotus.

Very interesting looking forward to next open day if they have another hope so

An amazing local company who build amazing hand built cars. The factory & historic tours are not to be missed. I'm looking forward to my next visit :)

If you're a petrol head this is a fantastic opportunity to unleash your inner racing driver. Fantastic day, fantastic staff had a tour of the factory which was throughly enjoyable. Well worth the money.

This place is a must for car mad people lot's of history and very special car's

Unloading and loading very fast, nice and helpful employees. recommend

Scare you self Silly, great day out. Driving Lotus cars around the hethel test track , and then being driven by instructors. Learnt a lot about your driving and technique. recommended.

Great tuition and tour of lotus factory. Excellent day and value for money

Unfortunately not accessible without an appointment, not even the nearby classic team Lotus.

A great place to get to by truck , and Paul who unload and loads my trailer , is a top man

A great British car manufacturer. Fabulous sports cars

Great afternoon doing the factory tour with Scott Walker. Very helpful assistance from Karen! Please keep up the good work!

Great day out.....good staff and great tour. Our host for the day was a walking encyclopaedia!

Great tour and a fantastic British instruction. Excellent experience. If only you got a free car with each tour..

A huge lotus fan for many years and since the first Elise S1 - including classics (though a little old for me). Have owned and own several including last favourite 2-11.

Had arranged for a visit to see Lotus and their history and facilities - compared with the other marques - Lotus falls into an enthusiast category and as such its not up to the league of other companies we visit. The goes across everything from facilities to staff. We felt everyone we met here was 'at work because they had to be at work'

Tour and talk was fine and the track was fun. You can come here for specific Lotus driving events booked in advance and as per their calendar. We intend to be back for one such event

We talked about the Evora 400. When and why on earth so long to launch an open version

I started working here in 1969, the same month as Tony Rudd, ex BRM etc etc whom I got to know.
I worked on sub assembly, P5 production line and road test.
I was 21 years old and it was the best job I ever had.
Good money, hell of an atmosphere and the camaraderie was wonderful.
We were like one big family.
Unfortunately I had to leave after six years, too many redundancies that would probably have got to me eventually, I was newly married (big mistake) !!
I loved the job, I didn't want to leave !

When preparing for open days, it was our job (Road test dept) to bring out the old F1 cars and be towed from the hangar into the factory to put them on show. Celebrities met included, Pete Murray (TV and Radio), Miss World (Austria), Shirly Anne Field (Actress) and Prince Michael of Kent (Unemployed) !
To anyone whos'e just started there, be proud. You're a 'Lotus Man'. It's a badge of honour.
Good memories !

Excellent factory tour and classic tour. Amazing hpw the old Formula One cars which some legacy are right in front of you.

I had unloading at this company and then loading empty racks. It took about an hour. Wheelchair and employees very nice, everything went very smoothly. Although the company is quite large, there is not much space for trucks.
