    Wet walk to The Eagle’s Nest then on to F.A.T Mankei on one of the most amazing alpine roads. It’s a toll to enter the park and gates close at 8:15pm. Unfortunately we arrived at 8:19 and had to follow a local in the out lane! Paid in the morning with much apologies!

    On to Motorworld in Munich. Highly recommend the car studio rooms in the Almeron hotel. There are only 2, so book ahead. Some amazing cars inside the building in storage and for sale. Big McLaren service centre working on a Speedtail and Elva!!

    Honestly, I wasn’t pushing at all. Around an 11 minute lap but it felt great. Absorbing all the bumps and curbs with ease. Lovely and fluid through all the multiple compressions and elevation changes. I was totally surprised by this, as the videos flatten everything. Power was adequate but I’m...

    LOTUS EMIRA ─ ECU Tuning options

    Lightweight battery

    Having heard stories of 911 restorations going up in smoke from “lightweight batteries” I’d avoid such a swap for such marginal gains.

    Emira Issues - from final production cars

    I noticed the inside of the windows fogging up today. A quick investigation found the driver’s footwell very soggy under the mat. Any suggestions as to where the water is coming in from?

    Spotted: Emiras seen in the wild

    Spotted a shiny Seneca blue (no BP) example heading north on the A26 at Reims last Tuesday (5th). Looked exotic from a distance. Low and wide. Anyone from here?

    📓 Journals Magma in Tasmania

    I was told at the factory it’s important to run the gearbox in, as well as the engine. Up and down the box, no box changes, even if running at 4K in 3rd seems wrong, better than sticking at 2k in 6th on the motorway. (Mine makes no strange noises)

    Where has the cover gone?!

    It’s a good idea. Mine was under the engine and retrieved successfully - not melted or chewed up thankfully

    Oil temperature and pressure reading?

    I can’t find this anywhere in the display. Surely Lotus wouldn’t miss this off a driver’s car, would they?

    Where has the cover gone?!

    Thanks for the tips. I can’t see it, so I guess I may find it if I take the undertray off. May be time for an early oil change!

    Factory tour - 16 Aug 2023

    Liverpool Street to Norwich is less than 2 hours. Golds taxi was £20 and around 20-30 mins from the centre.

    Is the Tan leather less orange in real life?

    What are you options? I think tan looks great with DV, Magma and Nimbus. Everyone who's seen my tan comment on how good it looks. Really lifts the interior from being a "black hole". Red is very bright, but again top quality and would work well with some of the FE2 colours.

    How is it different in person? What surprised you?

    The sharp crease leading to the top of the rear air intake is my highlight. Glancing in the side mirror is a joy to behold. Visibility forward is a surprise how good it is. The acceleration is also a surprise compared to my test drive. It’s early days but feels so useable.

    According to the service readout, it was first started on 3rd April 2023. That's a 4 month delay before notification that it's ready for pickup! What happened here?!

    Let's talk about the Emira's seats...

    it’s annoying that the seats don’t electrically move forward when the backs are tilted forwards. Or is mine not working correctly?
