    📓 Journals People's reaction to your Emira

    Driving to collect our velar from the garage yesterday in the emira, 2 mechanics run out from the neighbouring MOT shop..."we were debating what is it. He reckoned a Ferrari and I said a McLaren" - hearty conversation ensued about the car, the engine, etc etc...suffice to say they were fans...

    Paint Protection Film (PPF) and Wrap for your Emira

    I am happy to report that my Nimbus paint (unprotected from day 1) still has yet to receive so much as a stone chip from about 3.5k miles of driving. I am happy with the condition of the paint.

    Emira vs McLaren 570s

    I think the Emira is slightly the more raw car, but I prefer the 570s, which in turn I drove back to back with a 720s and over which it was definitely the better, more involving car for my taste. If you think the Emira is a superior driving experience to the 570s I am not going to disagree with...

    Is the Tan leather less orange in real life?

    It is less orange than the tan in my land rover velar, but more orange than some prefer...you really have to go and check the swabs in the dealer. it photographs very differently in different light conditions sometimes looking way over orange and other times a very natural leather look. I am...

    Help! Nimbus, tan interior, non-black wheels: Black, Red, Silver or Yellow Calipers

    two real world example...one when the callipers are cleaned, the other when they're not...tend to agree with karl20c in that the red does very much dull with a few hundred miles of driving, but I think the nimbus, tan, red callipers combination works well.

    Dashcam for the Emira

    I went for the plug in version so the rear camera attaches to the side of the main unit. A separate camera on the rear glazing would give you a better field of view but I wanted the convenience while still getting near 360 coverage. Been impressed with the quality of the video images and I am...

    Is track mode exhaust louder?

    You are not alone...others have reported the same. Mine seems to burble more, and more satisfyingly in track than sport. going on a very long drive tomorrow so might just have to test it again...and again ;-)

    Is track mode exhaust louder?

    I can hear the difference at idle...it does go deeper than sport, and the burps on the overrun are more frequent and satisfying. I tend to drive mine around in track nearly all the time, unless it is particularly wet.

    Creaking noise

    no...not the same as mine which I think another has commented is a slight play where the undertray meets the chassis which seems to be resolved by adding some more rivets.
