    Scorpion Auto tracker registration

    This ===^^ for a quick fix and since a recent app update the phone tag option doesn't work in conjunction with Apple CarPlay (there's now a note in the app to that effect) so expect (has your car been nicked!) calls if you don't have the physical tag with you..... :rolleyes:

    Yes - last September/October - spec as below - sorry..... ;) Went down by train and drove it home to Norwich in the pi33ing rain for 3 hours - that killed the HVAC fan resistor pack! 🤣

    New member from UK - Emira on order

    The UK direct sales "experiment" has now been the subject of a full 180 degree U-turn and all new orders for ALL Lotus product (including EV's) are being processed by dealers again. I suspect you'll get much more customer service from Hendy Southampton - I bought their V6 Auto Demonstrator last...

    i4 wih 400HP - post from another Lotus Forum

    The UK and Europe don't end place the same emphasis on model year as registration date tends to be a better reflection of age/value and is incorporated into the registration plate in many countries. Lotus have, in the past, made "running" changes to production as and when necessary, but if the...

    Lotus no longer accepting part ex

    Following the U-turn back to a dealer model in the UK, surely dealers (who, after all, run their own businesses) are able to take part-exchanges? Later Lotus models should still qualify as Lotus Approved Used too, surely..... Under the direct sales model the PX price was only got from British...

    Custom TPE & Carpet Floor Mats and Bootliner

    All please note - Emira floor mats appear to have changed from screw fixing to pop fixing at some point in the production run to date - I don't know exactly when or for which markets, but I guess this would need to be an option/choice for any replacement mats......

    Music via USB drive

    Before you do that try adding the track numbers as proper .mp3 file tags using this : https://www.mp3tag.de/en/ Maybe on just one folder as a test? I only use iphone as a music source (which plays albums in the correct order via Carplay) so can't tell you for sure if it works from USB but...

    Future of the Emira

    Pure speculation/bull💩 as far as I'm aware..... You can still order a V6 manual or auto in the UK but the configurator states "delivery in 2025" - until recently this said 2026. Most likely down to implementation of new Euro 6e emissions requirements and the requirement for mandatory speed...

    Tiresome CarPlay bricking

    Whilst the Emira has the capability to connect to a Wi-Fi network embedded in it's OS, there's currently no OTA firmware or nav map update functionality available so it's beck to the dealer, at least for now..... Some have had success by removing the phone from the car setup and the car from...
