    Boot hatch frame fills with water

    ohhh I'd forgotten there was an actual point to this discussion, thanks for bring it back on track :). Maybe, just maybe you need to look at this problem from another angle. You are assuming that the water has made its way into the hatch through your bad weather (unlike the great weather that...

    What are you driving until the Emira arrives?

    that was mine, or close enough... I can safely say, I would never buy one again haha...and it didnt leak and you could eat your dinner off the engine. But what a pig to drive...... no, not for me.... looks very cool..had the black roof rack.... 40% more HP, but still slow as a shed going...

    the receptionist if not at lunch, seemed very pleasant and generally interested when I was there... but then again I am devilishly handsome, so maybe that had something to do with it. Gary - great name - was the Lotus guy and was also helpful..... Now I did also turn up in my 4th sunday of...

    yes, luggage wise its pretty bad and as a weekends couples car, its no better than the evora really and not much better than an elise, but yes a bit. The porsche is so well packaged, even the convertible, in that category its an easy outright winner good luck

    . . just in case there is any confusion, i am NOT comparing this car to the Emira.... never have done..... despite @Cachaco131 confusing me and @Leonard with someone else ;). Only comparable car is the Caywoman GTS, not even the GT4. we know that... Even when the AMG version hits 500 hp, for...

    I bought the highest milage 718 S that there was, 3 4 years ago... think it had 45k in 2 years of ownership, ex demo car then customer car... still had warranty and was extended.... I never had an issue. I think we can safely say we would/should trust a 718 / 911 more than the emira at this...

    HMMMM ..im saying nothing..but... this guy says it better. the thing is, for most..most ordinary people shopping an emira.... i dont think a yaris really comes into it... we can talk about a golf R, which would pass a GR on any straight.... all good cars, but very different. Anyway, we really...

    Its not only ugly on the outside, it repeats that amazing feat on the inside.. haha... car snob... Also, its a TOYOTA.... as I said, car snob. but yes, for wet roads, narrow lanes..... good fun, but I would need a blind fold to drive it so could be dangerous. Im also not a fan, but I think the...

    Anyone thinking twice about buying Emira?

    i had one..kept it for 180 miles..... drove it 4 times... seating position is like a tractor and made me feel like an 18 year old yob... no your not alone... not everything Harry says is gospel.. but if u need 4x4 then i guess its more fun that a range rover

    maybe you couldn't hear anything due to the wind noise? ? ? haha.. i think these back ache things are simply due to each persons ergonomics. I had a porche 125 way seat and I got back ache or leg ache after about 40 mins..... I dont know anyone else who does... Its us rather than the seats...

A base model, x power, x trim..... a higher...

    ok agreed... but then we still dont know why its a let down... hence, the reason for getting Kef back inside a car and to solve the mystery..... I dont want a car with a "great" sound system, that doesnt sound great at all... there has to be a solution and Kef have to provide it

    Every reviewer, every customer...asking themselves the same question.... sport or touring.... shouldn't be an option. I personally think Lotus messed it up with touring and sport... If i was in charge... I would have done this: Touring. 375 HP. softer set up.... bit more economical...slightly...

    but i think they really concentrate on the big one...the eletre.. I have found virtually nothing about the specifics of the emira. No matter what, there seems to be enough disappointment in it that they should look at it//// for our sake and theirs. Im sure in the eletre its perhaps amazing...
