    Matt Windle promoted, says he wants to build more cars at Hethel

    What I witnessed was a down to earth MD that has the respect and loyalty of his colleagues, I wish him well and hope they can make a success of Lotus. Can't speak to not replying to letters, understandable thats's frustrating. We want them to act like small personable brand, but operate like an...

    Matt Windle promoted, says he wants to build more cars at Hethel

    I've met him, spent a few hours with him and seen how he interacts with his staff. He is a nice guy, but that doesn't make him a good CEO

    Lotus - summary of financial situation

    A reasonably priced high-end sports (not super) car manufacturer with near boutique level of sales is a difficult proposition, as is selling luxury EVs. Lotus are stuck in both. Struggling to name a single company that's suceeding in the expensive luxury EV segment right now, at least outside China.

    Driving shoes

    I have Piloti Lemans in UK size 7.5, I actually find them too narrow to H&T easily and a slightly wider shoe helps me get more side of the foot, rather than a full heel, for the blip.

    UK Car insurance craziness?

    Emira Car Covers

    I have a brand new never used external cover - it's still in the sack and has never been removed. But I am about to get a garage, so I'm looking for the internal cover. If anyone has a new internal cover and is interested in a straight swap let me know. The external cover retails at +£100 over...

    Poll for Those with Paint Blistering / Bubbling Defect

    My DV doors are finally going to be replaced next week. Originally they'd told me multiple panels will be replaced, but now they are saying they will blend in the other panels. Has anyone had experience of this? Also they are saying it'll take 4 weeks!! This sounds excessive, how long has it...

    Sincere apologies, scrub that 'e' off the emtb 😄 I blame the weird Scott linkage creating that suspicious bulge at the bottom bracket!

    📓 Journals kitkat's Emira

    looks like a Scott trail emtb to me, dusty and well ridden as it should be! I assume its a 29" front wheel, does it fit easily in the rear boot? or is it behind the seat?

    The likely delay of the EV Elise can have consequences on the continuation of the Emira

    Caterham seemed to have cracked it with their Project V, why can't Lotus? Project V's reported DIN weight is 1190kg - although it's clearly not nearly production ready https://caterhamcars.com/en/models/projectv

    Emira vs … Miata?

    Had both for a while too, would have kept my 30th AE MX-5 if I could have. Something about having the roof down in a car thats fun to drive, you can floor regularly and that you don't have to worry about the cost of running that's unbeatable. I fitted a custom exhaust and diffuser and inside an...

    Real World Boot and Storage Test including Golf Clubs

    It'all fit in no problem. Put your shoes in the boot and they'll be nice and toasty when you arrive at the crag, added bonus for sure! Unless you're a trad guy climbing off width and have cams the size of watermelons, then I'd go for an SUV 😄

    Steering Wheel Lock?

    I fit mine downwards, so the lock is on the top left and the bar to the bottom right. Is there any advantage to fitting it like you've pictured?

    Harry sells his Emira

    Harry sells his Emira

    Sounds like there is more behind this and there's stuff going on in Lotus that unnerves him but he's not spelling it out. He is clearly disappointed not in the car but in the flailing execution of the company's vision. This is after all a cycle he has seen a number of times now and had bought...

    Does it turn differently than a 911?

    I went on the driver training at Hethel, a full day in an Emira with plenty of track time. The instructor was great, had me slalom with left foot braking and turn in, it really is more nimble when the timing's right. On track I was a "get all your braking done in a straight line" kind of driver...

    Does it turn differently than a 911?

    I haven't driven an 911 in ages, but in the Emira some trail braking will load up the front and sharpen up turn in

    Emira Car Covers

    I have a Lotus outdoor cover (official Emira one), never used, or even removed from it's bag. Hope to have a garage later this summer and will be getting an indoor cover. DM me if interested in buying my outdoor one. In the UK though.
