Hi from New Zealand

Welcome. Glad to have you join us. What spec did you order and what are you driving until the Emira arrives?
 
Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your imminent arrival.
 
Hi ordered my emira September 2021 arrival time March 2023
Almost there
I love NZ...what a country to be able to drive around (though they are a bit over zealous on speed infractions) My bro lives in Palmie (yeah, I know) but I go as often as I can...some pics of you doing the tour of the south island would really add something on here ;-)
 
Welcome! Only 2 months to go, that's great!

Eclectic car collection!

I grew up with vintage Bentleys and it was classic car runs with my dad that first brought me into contact with Elites, Elans and Hethel. Our T2 was the first Bentley I was allowed to drive.
 
I've been all around the world, driving many of the best roads this rock has to offer, and NZ is still my favorite place on earth, and home to my favorite driving roads. I could only tackle them in a Corolla, very jealous of those who have proper machines in Aotearoa. Welcome!

Yes we are very lucky...only wish we had an Autobahn to drive them at their full potential. Hey there's nothing wrong wilth a good old reliable Corolla,same engine as my Elise.Cheers

You’re on a Lotus forum, the full potential is in the bends!

I’ve been dreaming of Takaka Hill Highway since I went in 2019. Hoping to get back there this year.

That's so awesome! Lots of fabulous roads around NZ to carve up with the Emira.
So glad we have more folks from NZ join the forum - welcome!

How cool learning to drive in a Bentley
