    New Shmee Emira video

    Totally agree. I originally ordered black pack with nimbus. Went on the factory tour in April and saw the cars in the flesh and subsequently deleted the black pack from my spec. It wasn't as if I disliked it, far from it, but to have the option to change the spec with a wrap seems a good choice...

    Yes, darker and richer. It looks fabulous and really shows off the cars lines beautifully

    Nope, not really. Nimbus is a much richer shade than that.

    Factory Tour Thread

    Yep, I was there last week. My spec was Nimbus, black pack, tan interior and silver forged wheels. The Nimbus is just classy as hell. The website just doesn't do it justice. On this basis I made the decision to ditch the black pack and also change the wheels from silver to the diamond cut...

    Battery - Lithium or not?

    ….and we did of sorts. Graham here, good to meet you today. A good eye opener wasn’t it and a thoroughly enjoyable and insightful couple of hours.

    June delivery delay - Lotus now says July…

    Only painted panels unfortunately. Imo it needs to be in sunlight to show the colour and then it’s really classy and the green comes to the fore. In shadow it looks almost black, maybe even dull. The jury is out for me on DV. If you live in a sunny climate (I don’t) then it could be a...

    Just a tad darker than that, but it just looks stunning and has a really deep shine to it. Anyone ordering it will not be disappointed

    June delivery delay - Lotus now says July…

    Just finished a 2hr factory visit and the cars currently coming off the line are dealer/demonstrators for UK and global market and not customer cars. Like other manufacturers they have been hit by some shortages due to recent China lockdown and as such are behind where they expected to be. I...

    My trip to Hethel

    It's going to be an interesting couple of hours I think. Hopefully I don't leave the factory more confused on the colours than when I went in....

    No ADAS on First edition

    Agree. I have a 981 Spyder and the blind spots with the roof raised are terrible. The key is to always drive roofless so it is never really a problem :cool: Fingers crossed the Emira FE has no such **** fitted 🤞

    No ADAS on First edition

    Totally agree. If the V6 FE came with ADAS fitted then I'd be cancelling my order without hesitation. Problem is that with ADAS will come auto speed limiting and tracking. This is the last thing that I'd want on a sports car like the Emira

    vs Cayman GT4 RS - Competition?

    Good comments there #digilotus. The GT4RS is a serious track oriented machine, and if used as such will have serious running costs to match. Those GT3 suspension components wear quickly and are hideously expensive to replace. The GT4RS cannot be compared to the Emira, it is a wholly different...
