went out for a blast, thrashed it to death on lotus roads, but the feeling as you get off is exactly the same as after a full on exige drive. Speed is really nothing.

I thought I had issues with a Lambretta!

 

[Magicman]

I bought this back in Feb to fill the gap, pretty confident the Lotus would be late, now I can't get rid of the bloody thing

 

[TomE]

I’m not surprised, have you seen the huge bonnet gap?

 

[Leonard]

I’m not surprised, have you seen the huge bonnet gap?

In hindsight surely Lotus would have been better off make a radiator cooling feature of it

 

[eclat2emira]

I’m not surprised, have you seen the huge bonnet gap?

Same on the 996 GT2 - shocking!

 

[TXEMIRA]

I’m not surprised, have you seen the huge bonnet gap?

Hahaha I was gonna say “duh, not enough wheel gap”.

I sold my fun car in May of 2021. I've been slinging this thing through the empty garage bays... lots of fun.

I'm getting itchy feet with the delays and summer passing me by.
Slightly fueled by visiting Lotus in the Peak last weekend
I should be happy as I have my Yaris, but it's more all season than vibes.
I probably won't buy anything now as it makes no sense for 3 months or less.
Interested to know what everyone has SPECIFICALLY purchased as a stop gap though. Not your existing cars but something that you have gone out and bought to 'fill the gap' between your old car going and the new Emira purchase arriving
Photo for attention and because i may get my Rado back from resto now before the Emira and its a v cool pic ( not mine) View attachment 7394

Enjoying my manual 2014 BMW 135I convertible. M line trim. Owned by an old couple who only put 20,000 miles on it in seven years before me. The N 55 engine is an underrated gem. Especially in a rear wheel drive lightish car.
