    Harry's Garage test route and VIP Emira Perks

    We've just returned from a few days away with the Emira in the Cotswolds. For those outside of the UK, the Cotswolds is a beautiful part of England with many pretty villages and amazing scenery. It's also the place where Harry Metcalfe (of Harry's Garage YouTube channel fame) lives, and the...

    The Emira got us one of the five huge VIP parking spaces at Bicester Shopping Village last week ;-)

    Passenger mirror not returning to correct position after reversing

    Pleased to hear you resolved your problem. My issue doesn't relate to the mirrors folding in and out. My issue relates to the positioning of the mirror glass (when the mirrors are folded out).

    Passenger mirror not returning to correct position after reversing

    Yes - I'm aware of those settings. Unfortunately the problem persists when the mirror drop setting is turned off and on..I have tried multiple times :-(

    Passenger mirror not returning to correct position after reversing

    Yes - I totally agree. This is a very minor problem. Having said that, in 5 months of ownership, other than this issue, my car has been absolutely perfect.

    Passenger mirror not returning to correct position after reversing

    Hi. I have both of my side mirrors set to lower when reversing. About a month ago I noticed that the passenger mirror was not returning to the correct position. It does attempt to move back (it moves back to the correct horizontal/left/right position but doesn't move far enough in the vertical...

    V6 auto or i4 DCT

    I really don't think that either of the v6 auto or the i4 are anything other than fantastic cars. I collected my v6 auto in August and, after 1000 miles, I am still totally enamoured with it. I test drove both cars back to back. They are both very fast and (in the UK, at least) with (just)...

    Hi Jim. Yes - I'm aware of (and very pleased about) the demise of the agency model. Your post made me laugh. I had a test drive booked for Hendy's v6 auto last September/October for my wife....I'd concluded that it would be good if she experienced the car before ours arrived. When we arrived...

    As an update to the above, I've just had a call from Lotus Online sales to confirm that they still don't have a build date for my car but it's most likely to be towards the end of 2025 than any time soon......yes 2025!....so that will be two and a half years after the order was placed and two...

    Hi. Not really. Up until a couple of years ago I've always driven older, cheap cars and maintained them myself. I'm at a stage in life now where I have the option to buy new and, illogical though it may be, in my mind there's still something special about having a car made specifically for you.

    New member from UK - Emira on order

    Hi. I've had an Emira on order since last August (2023) As a first post this is probably not a particularly positive one but I suspect I'm not alone in my experience. Here's my timeline: Order placed August '23 (V6 Auto, Nimbus Grey, Black pack) Received an email from Lotus in September...
