Does everyones car have these velcro bits on the seat belt sockets or is it just mine? If it is a Lotus factory fit thing then what are their purpose?

The only reason I could think of is if a previous owner had something like this fitted, but then I would have thought they would attach more securly than that?

Mine has them as well and
No idea what the idea is
Only thing I can guess is if it actually worked
It would stop the seatbelt socket from springing back when not used ????

Its to stop the hard buckle bit banging/rattling on the hard centre console.

Hmm makes sense, obvious really. They could have done with using more of it on other areas around the car prone to rattling. 
Although I have moved mine to accommodate harnesses I didn't think they where close enough before to hit against the center console.

If they did that with all the rattles it would just end up a fuzzy car!
