Made it up to the lakes which I was very happy about! Sorry, I don’t come on here too often so forgot to update. They had the car for a week, found the gearbox oil was low which was believed to be the problem. No leak showing so they were not sure why it was low, had only done about 5000...

Dropped it off at Lotus Hatfield this morning, which was helpful they could have a look at it straight away. Hoping it gets sorted within a few weeks as have a Lake District Road trip planned next month. Guy said the biggest risk is if it needs parts on back order as lotus aren’t being very...

can’t find anyone online with the same issue as me… Had this flash up on the dash, along with yellow engine light the other week. Thought it might just be battery gremlins, car ran ok so cleared it, and have driven it since for a week ok. Was on the M4 today when it dropped out of 6th gear...

Could you explain a bit more about the door holes? I haven’t read anything about that. Thanks

Sept 2023 V6 that I picked up a few weeks ago. Hadn’t noticed any bubbling when I bought the car, but noticed some this week. Car is kept outside and it’s been very frosty recently. What’s the process for starting a warranty claim, do I contact lotus customer service directly? I’ve got an...
