I've done the half day one (A Taste Of Lotus) last year where you do a couple of track sessions in their Emiras. This was well worth the experience and will do it again sometime this year. I'd done the factory tours and Classic Team Lotus already so didn't need to do the Introduction To Sports...

Agree with both of the above. I had paint bubbles on my tailgate from new in June but waited until the following January this year before having it replaced as I didn't want the car out of action when I most wanted to drive it. My question on the warranty is mainly how the issue is dealt with...

How much warranty have you left?

It's not worth going too fast round corners or even fast acceleration with my wife on board - there's too much screaming. My mate's daughter on the other hand just laughed all the way!

The Quick Start Guide supplied with the Emira has information about it on page 3, specifically UK+EU wide cover. It's also in the full PDF manual on page 20. <Link> The roadside assistance PDF I posted above goes into detail about prices for Hotel rooms etc.

Does disabling the passenger airbag stop the passenger seatbelt warning? It's not mentioned in the manual so a practical experiment is needed for you shoppers. Probably easier to just do up the belt though.

I downloaded this PDF from the Lotus Roadside Assistance web page when I got my car last year but I can't find it on their site anymore so it's probably been removed. The webpage says what's in the the PDF now.

Bell & Colvill via eBay. I have bought other stuff from them via their own website but for these it was easier buying via eBay. Black wheel centre caps Black nose badge

You won't be joining the Over-60s Yellow Emira Club then. :)

I replaced my yellow nose badge and wheel centre caps for black ones.

Not for me however it should have yellow wheels rather than standard ones.

Any good? Facebook Emira Group

I've just left my car for 5 weeks. I made sure they were the correct pressures before I went away. The tyres still feel and look all good on my return.

My V6 manual touring also has 60/110. The car was built November 2023 indicating the change has been around for a while.

Excellent

That is good news. One thing though, does it remember which USB port you have your music drive plugged into?

This is what I saw last year on a factory tour.

This on off thing for tariffs will not help anyone as it only increases the uncertainty.

This thread discussed this issue: Thread 'head lights with condensation' https://www.emiraforum.com/threads/head-lights-with-condensation.4570/

I didn't notice it until this post about it.....

That's what we are here for - university graduation in Christchurch as well as touring the spectacular countryside.

I've been here a week and all I've seen are racing UVs and camper vans! 😀 Some lovely roads over here just made for an Emira.

When was your car built, is it an earlyish one? When I test drove two Emiras back in January 2024 they both had the steering clunk at the limits. However my November 2023 build car doesn't have this at all. I assumed Lotus had changed something.

Maybe they were fed up with people asking if they were Lambos and put on the big Lotus text and badges to make it clear 😆

Ah, that makes sense now.

I've now put the Emira badge on both of the seats. Looking at yours it looks like a sticker with the letters in yellow. Mine are the whole badge in the same silver letters.

Elisa Artioli sat in my Emira! She was doing a talk about her life with the Elise (at Bridge Classic Cars) and how her grandfather named the Elise after her.

Will be interesting but I bet you wouldn't see much difference. Low volume car manufacturing doesn't exactly fly by. I've been on the factory tour 3 times now, once a year, and the only thing I really noticed was less people.

You can book a factory tour for the 12th, Wednesday next week so it looks like it will be up and running by at least then.

Just disable JavaScript to read the site, certainly not worth paying for what is usually "reported".
