A lot of new i4 Turbos have come on to the market adding to the numbers on sale.

I'd be wary of chassis damage particularly at the rear where it seems to be worse.

There are quite a few but it's amazing how few options the Emira has can produce so many cars that don't match what I want. I can only surmise that the people who ordered these didn't have as good a taste when it came to specifying the cars as me. Oh wait, maybe it's me with really bad taste...

Something changed this last week with the Lotus website and how you look at your order. I placed my order in January and the My Lotus login is now taking me to a different page than it used to. The previous page had Order, Personal details and price explanation as well as the ability to download...

Thanks for doing this :)

It's not something like the loose passenger seat belt just knocking something, someone else traced a ticking noise to that.

Hmm, I wonder when that was added, well spotted. At least for the moment V6's are still going to be made in 2026!

I would have two, black leather with yellow stitching please.

Unlikely. I would think that the Emira is new enough to have taken these security rules into account. Porsche don't want to redesign their old system on those cars because of cost. But just say it did apply to the Emira, Lotus would then have to pre-register all of the cars they have in stock...

Can't go wrong staying at The Bird In Hand, closest pub to the factory. https://www.thebih.co.uk/ Plus a while back Alex Brake (the manager I think) posted a discount promo code on Facebook: GROUPLOTUS2022, which might still work. I've had lunch there a number of times and there's lots of Lotus...

For most uses air compressors need a water separator filter. Air tools don't like water. About 20 years ago we had a £100k rapid prototyping machine that used compressed air. When it was moved into a new building the maintenance department were told of the air requirements but somehow forgot the...

You missed me for the workshop manual!

Which makes you wonder how much they effectively paid for them? Someone must have lost a lot of money on these or traded them in for something far more expensive.

I have a V6 on order. There are no new already built cars or second hand/pre registered cars that are my exact specification. I'm planning on keeping this car for a long time so I don't really want to compromise on it.

I'd be happy with the single volume, that proof looks ok when open. I'd also be ok with the two volumes if that was what most people want.

Yes, there are now 7 new i4s for sale on there.

Yes, noticed that. Ready to catch the spring/summer buyer : )

Hi How's your Emira going? You must have had it about a year now? Nick from Ipswich (Emira on order)

That's exactly what it's for.

Track Mode has: Optimised traction and corner exit characteristics with reduced ESC intervention. Also ESC can be turned off: ESC ‘Off’ (Track use only) This can be selected in any drive mode. When selected ESC functions are deactivated. Not forgetting: WARNING: Lotus recommends that ESC...

I took screenshots of my order throughout the process just to make sure. Did you download the PDF Proforma Invoice when you placed the order? It should be in the My Lotus / Orders page. The My Lotus / Orders page and Invoice shows my correct spec but on another page it's missing the tracker. I...

I suppose the steering wheel will be on the left along with all the corresponding controls, maybe one or two of them in a different location. Just visuals really. Did mainland Europe get a different handbook?

From the manual:

Not all in China. This one was in the UK not far from me. Sadly the driver was killed. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cx8v0p3pxeqo If I have the location correct where this accident occurred the bend in the dual carriageway is easy to take at 70mph in any ordinary car even at night so...

Well that's weird. ☹️

I just got my niece (who is at Uni in Christchurch) to check this link and it worked on her phone: https://www.lotuscars.com/en-NZ/configurator/emeya/emeya-r It works in the UK too.

Can't see tipping a car salesman ever happening in the UK :)

That would have been about 4am here in the UK so maybe it was "overnight" maintenance. It's working now from the UK. Might be different for NZ of course.

I know what you are saying. I will be buying the download as well anyway which I would hope would clear any legal side of things.

I'm in for the workshop manual. I've pm'd you as well.

Sometime in December I think.

Download the handbook from here: https://www.lotuscars.com/en-GB/emira-handbook This one is printable.

Ok. I was just going on their website shop page. https://lotusparts.jct600.co.uk/p/Lotus_2023_Emira/Car-Cover---Outdoor/120600443/LOTAC05627.html?referer=parts.enGB.lotuscars.com&machineIDT1=xqasssxwmvstffmaciy12kvb

Hmm, that looks different to the one on the Lotus website.Maybe it's because they've pulled it taut from underneath? Are there fixing lines to do this?

Is this the handbook or the service manual? If it's the handbook I had an early one that was secured from printing but a later one I downloaded wasn't. Without knowing the password and not resorting to some sort of hack the other way would be to take hi-res screen grabs of each page. A bit...

I'm in for a printed service manual.
