Honestly I wouldn’t bother if you’ve never done it before. The car is new and the brakes by AP I think you’ll struggle to boil the fluid on a regular track day. Also how do you know that whatever you will replace it with is better than factory spec? At best a marginal gain, at worst you’ll end...

Oh yes where do I get these?

If you want to know book time on engine remove and clutch replacement it’s 23 hours. I know because my clutch release bearing needs doing under warranty!!

Gets in the way of a 3-4 shift.. First euro trip complete! Emira is a worthy GT. Biggest downside is the seats I think I’ll swap them out at some point for some Tilletts. Had similar complaints with all the non -bucketed 911s I’ve owned…

Off to Bruges for a few days with luggage for two humans, dog crate, stair guard and dog luggage all just about fitted in still with space for humans! Wipers work, air con works, apple car play works, even the cold start stutter has disappeared and not returned in months, all paint intact and a...

Those prices are ridiculous. For context, I bought an 84aH LiFePO4 leisure battery (similar to their 110 model) for my camper for under £400 earlier in the year. They’re even less now. Indeed much lighter and smaller than the equivalent AGM or lead acid battery.

No dark verdant M505 in their store...

No UK shipping :-(

An update on this from me. My car was doing the stall start consistently, but it’s stopped since I started being more careful around how I washed it - being more careful with the jet wash around the intakes. Hasn’t done it for a couple of months. Might also be related to the drop in temps...

No worse than any other 2 seat sports car. I don’t think it will be quite 50% after three years but it won’t be that far off.

I see it differently. If you want hardcore, Exige. If you want a road car, Emira. Evora is in the middle and this doesn’t make sense to me…

Here's Number27 comparing my Emira to an Evora 410... Was fun to compare the cars and do some of the driving in the film! I think Jack liked it, and the obvious conclusion is the Emira is a dialed back, but more usable version of the Evora. Shocker!

Coming soon...

I think they accidentally sent a Prius motor for his... o_O

How? I could only get close to that by loading it on my trailer and towing it with my van!!

That's exactly what I would do/did. My slot was pushed back to the month after the 7k price increase so I cancelled and found one the same spec zero miles at a dealer for immediate delivery. Lotus were pushing them out to agents probably a dozen per week pre-August obviously now they can't even...

Interest rates up, sportscar market down. Most of them are on the tick. Same across the board. Keep calm and carry on driving.

I think at 75k that will be the inc. VAT price. Otherwise that's £90k to a private buyer.

And why, would anyone want to do that? :ROFLMAO:

I think all this VATQ stuff is a load of rubbish personally. If it's a new unregistered car then they're all VAT qualifying if bought for business purposes by a registered individual. And technically registered businesses do pay VAT, like everyone else, but are able to claim it back (they can't...

As an update - had the recall for the wiper pack, software update and a-pillar trim last month, as well as a precautionary 1000 mile service. Zero issues with the car until then. After leaving the unnamed dealer, A-pillar trim fell off and got a Wiper error message on the dash! (Hasn't...

It looks great on Nimbus but if it's finished anything like the lower black pack it will be covered in swirls and chips very very quickly. After 1000mls my detailer had to cover the front black lip with black PPF it was swirled and peppered. I'd go without, save $ and black PPF it for the look.

Emissions. V6 has huge luxury tax in some markets.

Also once the V6 ends production (2025?) I think values will be shored up. Given the i4 reviews I am very happy with my choice of V6 "Manuel".

Much want Steve. The OEM seats are def not the best part of the car!

Let's just be thankful we're not at an 80k drop on something like a Masser MC20... (via @harrym_vids) I think once the initial UK backlog of deliveries are out the way and all those who are going to cancel have cancelled, things will settle down. 12 month old cars with under 5k miles will prob...

In that case, deffo getting it done!

Which dealer? Any info on why?

Wow, did they use liquid gold?

I think it's pretty reasonable price for 6l of aftershave!

Yup they've just emailed me (this is Central Lotus, right?) I had previously wondered if was a good idea.

Seeing as the dealer is unable to provide these, and Lotus is unable to provide anyone with the paint formula, I'm going to get my car scanned and some paint mixed up and made into touch in pots. Obviously they have to mix much more than one pot of paint... So... Any interested in a group buy...

Some more pics from the detailer…
