But what if you're James Bond? You can't be hanging around for a minute or so while Blofeld makes his getaway.

Mine has been fine untill two weeks ago when I got it back from the 10k service. I was told a few software updates had been applied and the next day it wouldn't start. It's got to go back for a bit more work in a fortnight, hopefully they can check they have the correct updates installed and...

I had a leaking power steering pump quite early on, less than 2 months old. I have bubbling paint on the passenger door which will be repaired next week when the car goes in for its first service. And loose interior trim. It could be worse and overall, I'm very happy with the car.

The power steering fluid leaked on my Emira and the system ran dry requiring a new pump. It's a known issue and your local dealer has probably seen several. The advice I received from my dealer was to have the car recovered by Lotus as it bumps it to the top of the queue. That's what I did and...

Check your power steering fluid level, it's not an easy thing to do, you have to remove the engine cover and look under the rear right hand wing, if you have to top it up, you will have to climb into the boot to reach. I beleive quite a few cars have had this problem, mine needed a new pump and...

My Emira is at Oakmear Motors in Northwich for a new power steering pump and the recalls, should I be worried?

I checked the Power Steering Fluid level (not an easy trick given the reservoirs location). The reservoir was empty. Obviously, I topped it up and now its back to normal. I just worry what damage has been caused to the system during the time it was running dry. My Local dealer may be able to...

My Emira has started making this horrible noise, it's present with steering in the straight-ahead position but significantly worse when moving the steering wheel. I made this video when the engine was cold, its much less severe when the engine has warmed up. I’m guessing it’s a problem with the...

I'm also struggling with the DAB tuning, what do you mean by "pulling down"? I've nearly worn my index finger out swiping over the screen.

I picked my Emira up this week, on collection it had quite a few light scratches on the bonnet and wings. The dealer said they will polish out easily, which he proceeded to do, but it has left faint swirl marks on the polished area that are visible in sunlight. So the paint does appear to be...

You flashed him? I'll drive up your way when I get mine next week :D

I bet his heart sunk when you shouted "who owns the blue Emira on the carpark" :ROFLMAO: :eek:

They pass by too quickly. No time to ger your phone out and take a pic

I saw a similar car near Preston a coulpe of weeks ago, maybe the same one. It was the first I've seen on the road (apart from the test drive in November). I'm picking mine up from Oakmere next week, so mine will be the second one I've seen on the road; I'll enjoy the rareity. Does anyone know...
