    Thoughts on Shadow Grey?

    Love my shadow grey Emira. Classy in my opinion and fewer of them about. I particularly like the blue tint it has in full sunlight.

    Emira insurance - best and worst UK insurers/quotes

    I managed to get the quote down to £718 with Manning by increasing the mileage to 5000 pa, reducing the vehicle value to £80k and keeping the excess at £900. Really happy considering what it cost me to insure last year and how much most premiums have increased overall :)

    Emira insurance - best and worst UK insurers/quotes

    £803 renewal quote with Manning for my V6 with 4000 miles pa, NCB protected, wife as named driver, and street parking. I'm 45 with a clean license and live in Sussex. I paid £1431 last year :)

    Emira 3.5 V6 manual vs Porsche Cayman 718 GT4 Spyder

    I couldn't agree more. Don't get me wrong I LOVE my Emira but an extra 40/50hp is all it needs to be perfect. If Lotus had offered a tuning upgrade as an option I would have gone for it 100% but not now or at the prices quoted and certainly not under warranty.

    New software update last week - who’s had it?

    I haven't had the starting issues either and my annual service is coming up in March, so it would be good to know some more about what the software update addresses and whether you reckon its advisable given the issues other owners have experienced following their own updates.

    Scrubbing on full lock

    Yeh my Emira does it but it's nothing to worry about. I was told that the skipping is a consequence of the steering design - apparently the Evora's do it too!

    Well this feels weird... Emira 10k off with Carwow?

    You cancelled your order because of the price hikes but have found one that's £6k cheaper and you're only just tempted?? Don't think.. just do it.. I promise you WON'T be disappointed!!!

    Factory collection framed car photograph

    I'm not a fan I have to be honest, like I wasn't a fan of the presentation key box. Like you say had it been taken of your own car being built and rolling off the production line, then that would have been a nice touch!

    📓 Journals Meccanisti's DV FE

    I asked my Lotus dealer when mine had its recall in August to check the oil and filter and they did and said it was fine and did not need replacing. I had done 2000 miles at that point.

    I had the exact same recalls all fixed by Caffyn's Lotus in Ashford, UK. They were finished in under 3 hours - first rate service! No further issues since.
