    Sorry to hear this I guess it must be luck of the draw and I guess your car being so early hasn't helped.

    Appearance of Seneca Blue in person

    Seneca is with out doubt the best colour and I've had a good look at all the colours up close, but it really is a personal choice. I think I mentioned on another thread that Seneca does seem to change even to the naked eye depending on the conditions/setting you are in just like on all the...

    Speaking to my dealership the normal one is the correct charge, I know this as I have been using it for a while now and it works. Confusing I know.

    Stone chips on black trim around the rear wheels?

    I decided not to go down the PPF route and went with a ceramic coat instead, ok its not the same protection but I've had no issues with any chips over 1000 miles in. I clean my car pretty much every week and no chip issues whatsoever so far. PPF is only for a car you know you are going to keep...

    Fitting a battery conditioner... Do's and Don'ts

    I was told to charge it on the Car logo mode on the Ctek charger and not the car AGM mode as that was for cars with start stop technology. Does anyone know what is the right mode for this battery?

    Fitting a battery conditioner... Do's and Don'ts

    Im really not an expert I've just followed advice off here and Youtube, Plug it in if you go away for a week or more and if i'm only doing multiple short trips I leave the charge on for a couple of nights mid week. In regards to the traffic light connector I have a look everyday as it only takes...

    Fitting a battery conditioner... Do's and Don'ts

    Emiras advertised for sale on other sites

    After 2 years people were always going to drop out god I know I nearly dropped out on a few occasions. Expect the car numbers on autotrader to level off soon enough then who knows what the market will do. If I was looking for an Emira and done my homework online I wouldn’t touch most of those...

    Emiras advertised for sale on other sites

    If you pay 87k you don’t have one of the early cars with all the issues, these are most of the cars on autotrader. I was lucky to scrape in price protected with a May production car that up until now hasn’t skipped a beat. Honestly what a car.
