    Where have you gone instead of Emira?

    Hi all, I haven't posted for a while, since I cancelled my Emira a good while ago. Sorry to hear about all the problems new owners are having with their cars. I have no regrets whatsoever that I made the right decision, especially after reading all the posts regarding the faults on the Emira. I...

    I'm out - the cancellations thread

    After much deliberation I've notified Lotus to cancel my Emira order. It wasn't a decision taken lightly, but I have no regrets and believe I have made the right choice for me. I was never in the market for the Emira, but when it was launched I got caught up in all the hype and placed an early...

    Factory Tour Thread

    I've had dealings with Rimstock until recently. I had to close their trading account as they wouldn't pay their bills on time, It wasn't large amounts either. Don't quote me but I think they have been sold again, I think that's twice now they have been sold in recent years. If you log onto any...

    Emira Review Index [V6 FE]

    I've got all the car magazines here in front of me, and the reviews are most favourable, including Catchpole's in EVO. Top Gear, Car, Autocar, plus online with Autocar, Rory, Harry and others. The only negative one is Jethro online with EVO along with Sutcliffe, and it can be argued on both...

    Emira Review Index [V6 FE]

    Not sure if this has already been posted, but I've just read the latest issue of Car magazine and the review of the Emira (it was pitched against the Alpine A110S and Cayman GTS 4.0) was really good. It narrowly missed out on top spot by the Cayman, but they thought the Emira the most exciting...

    Emira Review Index [V6 FE]

    On a few forums (OK Pistonheads) some are saying Henry's review was lukewarm at best, well I've just read his review in EVO and thought otherwise.. He gave it plenty of praise.

    Emira Review Index [V6 FE]

    I'm not sure if this has been posted, but Top Gear Magazine has the Alpine A110 first, 9 out of 10, Lotus Emira 2nd, also 9 out of 10, and Cayman GTS 4.0 3rd, on 8 out of 10.

    Now that reviews are out is anyone having 2nd thoughts about Emira ?

    I cannot believe all the negativity on here since the reviews came out, and it's even worse on the Pistonheads forum. The Emiras tested are pre-production and apart from one not so good review in EVO (wrong tyre set up, etc) almost everyone is up in arms! I thought the reviews were all really...

    If Not The EMIRA .......... WHAT ? .... yes ok blasphemy perhaps

    If I hadn't got an Emira on order then I'd buy a Boxster 718 GTS 4.0, which I was going to do last year until I saw the Emira launch.

    Emira Car Covers

    I'm planning on keeping my Emira outside, so will need to purchase a decent outside car cover. Does anyone know if Lotus will be bringing out indoor and outdoor car covers for the Emira before it comes on sale, or will I have to get one bespoke made by a car cover manufacturer?
