* * * * * Enjoy Willem van der Kooi / Dutch Lotus importer's track time on the Hethel circuit with the Lotus Emira V6. It's safe to say: this car drives fantastic.

* * * * * Dutch Lotus importer van der Kooi and his son.............very enthusiastic after their testdrive.......

* * * * * If you don't like to loose your warranty these upgrades only would be available generally from 2023 + 3 yrs = 2026 (and later) (Hopefully Lotus does not increase his number of warranty years..........;) ) BTW.........in this rapidly strickter automotive environmental regulation...

* * * * * Many thanks for the link......! Fantastic car that Evora GT410 auto............the Emira hardly could be better than that fully matured Evora......... There are now only 3 new GT's left on Autotrader.......the very last chance to grab a brand new one......and no delivery- or evt. new...

* * * * * I personally believe this is the actual reason for all those ongoing delays. It is not that Lotus suddenly is overwhelmed with orders or has become aware that all deliveries do need extra attention and time to be able to deliver a product with the expected quality........

* * * * * If this would be true it could be a typical kind of problem where Lotus would doubt to made it public and give related details in order to explain delays. Other / common kind of problems would be "easier" to announce and explain. Frankly speaking on a personal note, Lotus...

* * * * * Well, he than must bring with him a similar wheel with this bolt pattern...... Of course every car can finally be stolen.........this clamp makes it possibly some more difficult. I also have still the pedal lock left. Regards

* * * * * Re: ......Feast on this excellent video of AMG M139 tech explained and some interior engine sounds at full throttle…. Very impressive engine indeed.......... Direct injection........and no fear of carbonisation of the valves..........? Let's see.

* * * * * The Evora GT 410 Sport is in my garage........I bought a 1st class (Autobild tested) wheel clamp for some extra safety (for what it's worth). Furthermore, I have constructed a "pedal lock" myself for fixing the pedal of the automatic transmission......e.e.a. "locked" with an ABUS...

* * * * * For me the Emira indeed looks pretty / beautiful..........however a kind of a budget / copied Ferrari........conform Top Gear it has a "baby super car appearance". The latest Evora GT 410 looks as a one of a kind, very special and raw, agressive and for me very attractive. In the...

* * * * * Assuming prices are USD and not ASD........?

* * * * * It is not allowed to drive in the Netherlands with a foreign country license plate. You will be caught during driving either by the police or the customs control cars on the highway. After a couple of years you can purchase a 2nd hand / depreciated German car and import it to the...

* * * * * It is the BPM = Emissions Tax that make high level and sport- and supercars very, very expensive, especially in the Netherlands and Denmark. The importer has to follow the law and can do nothing about it.......... Enclosed a picture of some time ago showing the influence of the BPM in...

* * * * * Van der Kooi Sportscars, importer of Lotus in the Netherlands, among other things, reports that the CO2 emissions of the Emira with blown four-cylinder are a lot higher than expected. Initially, an average CO2 emission of 175 g/km was assumed, but that turns out to be 195 g/km. This...

* * * * * Ref: There were 165 dealers worldwide in 2019... My guess is that's at least 170 now. Even if they each had only 60 deposits, that's 10,200 right there. Yesterday I was for the 1st service inspection of my new Evora at the Dutch Lotus importer / Dealer (we have only one in the...

* * * * @ Leonard, I don't know exactly, only that he ordered a FE V6 on 22. Dezember 2021.......see post #4 of the link. That time he expected (hoped) delivery "April 2022"........(conform his adjusted Avatar)...

* * * * * For me the analogue feeling; the "last Lotus of it's kind" and especially the exclusivity of the last Evora's GT 410 Sport are the main reasons to prefer the Evora. For me the Emira has a strong "baby super car appearance" (conform Top Gear) which I do not like. Either you have a super...
