    What Will Lotus Show At Goodwood 2023?

    Saturday tickets sold out, Friday and Sunday are now limited. I very much doubt you'll get a room at the Goodwood hotel at this stage or anywhere else reasonably close at this point.

    London for Five Days - Advice Please!

    Brighton is a good shout; there are other more genteel places along the south coast as well - Bexhill and Hastings to the east and Worthing to West. I would recommend some of the National Trust properties in Greater London as well - Ham House; Morden Hall Park etc. Most are easily reached using...

    Emira alternatives

    If you go Alpine, go Base A110, its by far and away the best value for money...

    Emira joins the Thruxton Race Circuit experience fleet!

    The Emira driving experiences are now on the Thruxton web site... £275 for 3 laps in a Cayman and 4 laps in the Emira. I like Thruxton a lot, having driven there a number of times, but to be honest you'd get better value at the Lotus Acadamy (not a sentence you see very often!) - I paid £180...

    Rear cabin storage weight limit

    Isn't the 50kg in the boot and 20kg in the cabin?

    Rear cabin storage weight limit

    For reference, the load limits in the boots of an Alpine are 40kg in the front and 40kg in the rear... so 20kg is quite low...

    Uk car arriving

    I saw a Magma car at Lotus on Saturday - it looked fantastic to both me and Mrs T... but then I'm biased as my Elise was Ruby Red which looks remarkably similar. (and don't worry, it was LHD so not yours!).

    Lotus Emira Track Experience

    Does anybody know what specification the suspension is on the Seneca Blue Emira used by the Lotus Driving Acadamy (or is there more than one?)? I was drove it yesterday but forgot to check! Of all the cars I've driven on track it reminded me most of a Mclaren 720... which is high praise in my...

    OK talk to me about the Alpine 110

    That is EXACTLY how I felt when I first drove an Alpine... 7 years after I let my Elise go it felt like I was at home again, but I had a/c, stereo etc etc.
