Indeed. I dropped my Emira today at the dealer to replace the doors. They estimated that it will take about 4 weeks to get them replaced, so knowing how these things go, that means that I will probably have the car by around November.

Look, it's the quiet gentleman! 😂

I did this one a while ago. This is an extra that I consider absolutely essential to drive on certain locations. Should be included standard in all models.

Yours too? Welcome to the club. I see that this is the passenger's seat. In my case it's the driver's. I called LCI (for non-Japanese people: LCI Limited is the importer of Lotus cars for Japan) and they told me that they haven't seen this before, which I don't believe, and to bring them the...

I didn't have air conditioner either for the first 2-3 months of ownership (April to July 2024). The dealer detected the gas leak during the pre-delivery inspection. I suppose you're going to have to drive with the windows open like I did. 😅

Confirmed with @virtualmacho that I'll attend.

Damn, I missed this thread. I guess I should visit the forum more often, instead of just when I get an email notification about replies to threads I'm already watching. :confused:

Just saw this one too. I'm interested, but this will have to be over a long weekend (3-4 days), because it's a 2000km round trip. In general, I'm very interested in seeing new places and learning new routes. I've spent most of my time in Japan sitting in front of a computer, and it's time I go...

I would love this! Are there any long weekends in the near future?

I was going to order a set for my RHD Emira, but I guess that now I'll pass. Even if they ended up delivering what they're advertising, the way they've been dealing with @TonyV6-UK just doesn't sit right with me.

I may be able to attend.

I noticed this when I was visiting random service areas in the expressway when I was still in the break-in period for mine. This is my Emira next to an Artura:

Damn, one would think that in a car in this price range they would use better quality materials... Thanks for the photos, they help understand the issue very well.
