    Magma Red Lotus Emira Photo Thread

    Horrible isn't it? The Maranello Concessionaires blue from the 60s was much paler than this and a nice pairing with the red.

    Now is the winter of our discontent, made glorious summer by..........Lotus Cars. My email says October production and a quick call to LCC confirms almost certain November delivery. We'll see.

    Lotus Emira Track Experience

    Lots of detail from your day. I believe that you have an Evora, on Cup2's, which you spun in the rain. Although I'm going Touring with Goodyears, how did the Emiras compare with the Evora, both interior finish and general driving?

    Interesting that they're not using feedback to improve elements of the experience for future participants but at least you got a result with the email!

    Lotus Emira Track Experience

    Thanks for your attention to detail and taking the trouble to write this up. Did Lotus ask you to complete a questionnaire at the end of the day so that you could provide some feedback on the overall experience?

    A forum allows people to impart information, express opinions and sometimes add a little humour. As Lotus are known to monitor this forum, it's a good place to express discontent with their communications, and, is a second string to those people who are contacting Lotus direct. I sense that...

    I lived in Norfolk for half of my life and I'm sure that the local disenchantment stems from the mass redundancies when sales stalled, particularly in Chapman's time. There's a line in Tony Rudd's book, It Was Fun, when Chapman had flown into Hethel, seen all of the cars in the employees car...

    Did not Nero fiddle whilst Rome burned? There is a vast difference between criticism and abuse. The culture of any company is set by it's senior management. Lotus cannot help the delays. We understand that. They can, however, communicate with their clientele to set expectations, whatever...

    I'm sure that we all understand the supply chain difficulties which Lotus and other manufacturers are facing. It could even worsen if the Taiwan situation escalates and sanctions are applied to China by the West. What isn't acceptable is for Lotus to keep their customers in the dark and only...

    Lotus Vision80 has Windle under instruction to run Lotus as if it were a late 1970s UK nationalised industry, as dictated by Li Shufu who's a known associate of Xi Jinping. This was when the union barons thought that they ran the country and were regularly seen walking up Downing Street in their...

    Just happy to be on board

    My Elise is Norfolk Mustard otherwise I'd have gone for Hethel Yellow too. Oddly enough my wife really likes the colour and I'm past any midlife crisis.

    Just happy to be on board

    I've just joined the Emira forum too but have been a frequent visitor since I placed my deposit on 7th July, the day after the Hethel reveal. I've much appreciated Tome's contributions and Eagle7's renders have been excellent. I can understand the general frustration with Lotus communications...
