Biggles, how well does yours work following the repair? I had mine repaired and I find the AC system performance underwhelming, the other day my screen was misted and switched on the screen demist button, whilst it blew air it was minimal and took ages to do anything, I actually found selecting...

My aircon is now working, they fitted a new "hedgehog" unit as they call it. Interestingly there was a further couple of updates applied to the ECU for the aircon controller, they said that there are new updates flying out of Lotus constantly for the cars. They had the car for 2 1/2 days but I...

Nothing to do with me but if you are a budding GT4 racer or a trackday fanatic with cash burning a hole in your pocket and want the best Emira money can buy..... Try this out for size: https://racecarsdirect.com/Advert/Details/140919/lotus-emira-gt4

Nice video with some extra detail on the Macau GP GT4 race focusing on the two Emira GT4's Don't know who this chap is but he got some pretty good access so it has a lot of close up imagery

Yeah the Supra went full bore into Lisboa on lap one, how he did not hit Christodoulou was a miracle but did for the Supra which may have been able to stay with or even challenge the Emira's in the race

They were pretty dominant in the short race but most of their lead came from the fact that the 3rd place BMW was really struggling at the Melco hairpin where it almost had to come to a stop to make it round each time, even the commentators joked that the BMW almost had to make a 3 point turn 🤣...

I have the same following recall but tested the SOS button and it connects and works. On a long run when I arrive, switch off and then restart its gone. However if left overnight it reoccurs again at next start up. Spoke with tech at Lotus Silverstone but they are not aware of the problem or a...

Well my Aircon is Kaput well and truely. Had the issue with limited cooling originally, then when it went in for recall the service centre reset the AC controller and checked the gas levels. When I picked it up it was all fine. The following day went to use the car and the AC was not working...

The SOS issue only started after the update, its used everyday so if I have to charge it as well that's pretty poor!

My car went in for recall on Friday last week, before this I had no issues with cold start (car sits outside on inclined drive) Now every cold start is like it only fires on 3 or 4 cylinders, shakes the car like mad and then dies unless I can catch the throttle. Does not do it hot. As its...

I will give that a try, did you change the setting to start in Sport and thats what made the difference?

Going to be calling my dealer today as its already in for the recalls so hopefully they can add this to the list of work. :)

Hi Collective Emira hive mind, Read through a few other threads on AC but not sure if this fault I have is common or just my car. My AC will work when I start the car from cold, it will heat or cool and I can use all settings in either Auto or Manual and it appears to function correctly If I...

Hi All, Has anyone had a hard copy of the manual provided with their car (or after collection) or is it online only? Cheers Nellie :)

Hi collective Emira owner hive mind, Has anyone on here taken either the Lotus GAP or Paint insurance products at the time of their purchase? If so have you been provided any insurance certificate or policy schedule to support proof of insurance being in place?? I have had the car 3 months...

So back out to the car again just now and I had a new fault: Park Assist was temporarily unavailable, ESC still in fault And Handbrake would not release (Even though fault was not showing for handbrake anymore) However when I pulled away and got to 20 mph the faults all dropped off, have...

Well I am at 1100 miles and can now play with the car properly, however I have had a few dash warnings come and go with the Hand brake auto functionality and also experienced the wiper issue that everyone suffers. Its my everyday car but I don't necessarily drive it every day, today I did about...

Oh well, after a month of trouble free Emira motoring I today hit heavy rain (Always had wipers in auto, not touched it since purchase and in most conditions it was okay) and boom wipers did not react, had to touch lever as could not see a thing and they proceeded to do a slow wander across the...

Colour comparison of my Ruby Red Esprit and Magma Emira Washed them both and the sun was out right until I went to take pics and then it rained!!!!! Surprised at how much lower the Esprit is against the Emira, both on standard suspension.

I have now had mine for 16 days, collected from Lotus Silverstone, I am 570 miles into the 1000 run in period, it is a daily driver so is doing a mix of journey lengths. At this moment in time that experience has been pain free, no problems at all with the car. In fact this is only my second...

Wow, Lotus wins again. It amazes me how Lotus at every step seem to destroy the success of the Emira as a car with the debacle that is their customer experience!! Sorry to hear that you lost your potential order position, its was a frustrating 18 months for me but at least there was a car at...

More or less, yes. In isolation a Dyno chart is an indication of how an engine makes its power on the environmental condition of the day, based on its configuration and set-up. Without a dyno run in almost identical conditions pre/post mod the peak values delivered may not show any difference...

Nice bit of brand publicity/awareness for the Emira, In the best colour as well ;):ROFLMAO:

Wow, how did you interpret that I did not understand or took them for granted all that from my one line saying it was interesting and healthy numbers if loss were correct???? Internet experts! FYI - Double champion racing motorbikes (in power controlled class - i.e. lots of time in dyno's)...

That's an interesting Dyno run, healthy looking numbers if the losses are correct :)

Has anyone, who has reached the magic 1000 mile run in, had a dyno run on their Emira to see what its making in real life??

It has the Black Leather interior :)

The sun was out so thought it rude not to capture the beauty of the Magma Red just looking glorious :love:

I got my car and after that wait it was enough!! :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: here's hoping I am lucky enough to get a key box 🙄 However nothing else, with it being a direct sale with Lotus we are unlikely to see similar benefits to dealer supplied cars from other manufacturers from now on...

HI DPB, I think the camera is playing tricks on us both as the Mini red is a more traditional red, its very different to the eye. The camera has captured it and probably made the Emira look flatter in colour, it was a grey day as well Agree with you about the countryman, stuck between...

Thanks Jim (y):)

HI All, Collective brain pick from other owners as I did not get my owners manual when picking up the car so have nothing to reference until it arrives. I have selected the auto handbrake function on the settings menu however its operation is not how I expected against other cars I had with...

Posted this pic in my collection post, but thought I would add it here as well :love:
