Which part? The UK prices include VAT, which is 20%. The tariffs part, the poster I quoted will know what I’m talking about.

The UK prices include VAT, and why are you whining about the tariffs? China pays the tariffs…

What octane fuel are you using on map1 and map2? I have an obundance of 93 here in NJ so I’ll be using map2 exclusively. Does your perception of a suboptimal performance on map2 relate to 93 octane or a mixture of 91 and 93?

But then how to explain why the car locked itself with the key inside? For the key to get inside in the first place either door must be opened first. The auto lock feature described in the manual assumes that the doors are not opened for a period of time after hitting the unlock button on the...

My initial $2500 deposit got me a production spot in July 2021 (refundable at that point) followed by additional $2500 in May 2022 to lock the build. At that point $5K had become non-refundable. The VIN issued in November 2023, and I took the delivery of my car in May 2024. I don’t know if the...

I don’t think the ding is against Ray in sales, this is regarding their service department that runs next door at Smythe Volvo. I do agree that the service is a bit of a hustle but you cannot compare it to Subaru, Acura or even Volvo service. We only have a single service advisor and a couple...

I’m still puzzled why we need an audio system in this car when the car itself sounds so intoxicating, well at least to the point you have to shift.

Doug’s and the carsandbids team take on the current car market and a possible affect of the tariffs

Bookmarked for a future reference.

Sure, shut it down, don’t look up

You are delusional to think that in just 6 months we will bring the manufacturing back home… But you do you if the first 4 years of of the current administration didn’t prove to you that getting rid off the debt is not in the best interest of the President Musk and his apprentice Trump.

Well to be honest, they are not using a sledgehammer, more like a chainsaw.

The felon didn’t like the portrait of him in Colorado senate, here is an opportunity for Banksy to right the wrong

EVAP code strikes again. The car is at the dealer. My service advisor is saying that they contacted Lotus as the all relevant parts were replaced. Has anyone experienced a chronic EVAP system fault on their Emira?

Invest in EU defense.

Not to get political but you should expect the tariffs on the UK and EU goods pretty soon after todays melt down at the White House

I have the same cover, it’s soft and fits perfectly. There are plastic hooks that are designed to hook to under body but I didn’t have to use them. My car is PPF’d so I have little concern for scratches.

The CEL is off now but the code is stored. Hopefully I’d be able to bring the car to the dealer next Monday unless we are getting snow.

P0451 strikes again. No mods on my car. Going back to the dealer in 2 weeks.

We already have so many Volvo parts in our cars 🤣

Another vote for Lotus of North Jersey. I’ve had a positive experience dealing with Smythe Volvo service - next door to the Lotus of NJ sales office - Billie is the service manager for Lotus there.

My friend drives my car. The car has received a very positive feedback from Nick! Enjoy!

The turbo i4 with the upped specs for the US market is def faster than the manual V6. As far as the desirability of the car in the future goes - I’d think the V6 manual will be the #1 choice followed by the turbo i4 and then the V6 auto. I’m hearing the rumors that Toyota stopped supplying the...

I ran into Ray from Lotus of NJ at a local cars and coffee. He mentioned that they got a couple of automatic customers cars now at the dealership. He came with a used nimbus gray FE1.0 they have for sale now at the dealership.

Allegedly, the US prices have been “announced” The original FE was a bargain if this stands true.

Call me boring as well Previous stable: Misano Blue and Long Beach Blue Current stable: Misano Blue and Seneca Blue

I think you re the only one in the US with a front mounted plate displayed. Extremely special :)

Congrats! Was this a custom order or a "someone sleeping on the job" mishap w/ black lettering w/o a full black pack?

With these finicky touch controls you don’t have to “use” the left or right side pads. I happen to engage cruise control and other functions all the time whenever my fingers anywhere close to the touch pads.

I bought a BanC key fob pouch - it’s one of the sponsors of these forums

Oh you are right it went to a Canadian configuratior. I will delete this thread.

HIt’s now at staggering starting price of $126900 😲 Edit: looks like it’s the Canadian condigurator. No news here.

Lotus of NJ via Smythe Volvo service quoted me $529.00+tax for the oil change

When I was washing my car last weekend I noticed a bolt pretty much come undone under the front bumper. So I went in with a socket wrench and sound that most of the bolts holding the skid plate under the front bumper were loose. Is this a course of bolts just get undone every now and then or...

How often do you see another Emira if it’s not at a cars and coffee meet?

To be honest, while waiting for the Emira and contemplating whether I should sell my M2C in 2021 when the prices were wild, I considered a Miata to hold me over before the Emira’s arrival.

After almost 3 months of the ownership as I approached my 1000 mile mark, a rock flew into my windshield on the dreaded NJ Route 22. So now I have a dollar bill lengthwise crack on the passenger side. I called the Lotus of North Jersey service and they are getting a replacement for me at almost...
