    Back in the detailer today for a bird shit mark on the roof to be polished out. Think I'll get the roof added to the ppf 🙄

    So I've not had the time, or weather , to do anything epic in the car but have to say I've really enjoyed using is as a daily the last few weeks. Not skipped a beat, been really easy to live with and still felt like an event every journey. And still makes kids reach for their phones and ask for...

    V6 Auto 0-60mph change?

    Yeah this... When you're only talking a few 10ths and all he's to do is mash the pedal in his nice and used s4, me in the new, tight engine, manual Emira I've only launched a few times and it's not as easy to get if the line as my gt4 was

    31 is bonkers! I haven't seen a drive over 21-23 ish yet 🤷🏻 my average for the first 1200mls has been 18mpg. I'm sure Harry said in his 4500ml review he struggled to get over 25mpg. I don't use tour, sport in the wet, track in the dry, so can only assume that has quite an impact

    Just think if I've have to get a key out of my pocket to unlock it it may as well have somewhere dedicated for it to go in the car.

    V6 Auto 0-60mph change?

    having just got schooled by a 5yr old audi s5 off the line I can definitely say the Emira is not a drag car 🤣 In fact it's really poor, there's zero traction issues, it's just 1st gear seems to do well, nothing 🤷🏻 Auto might address this. In all other aspects of performance I think the emira...

    Since its run in I've tried a few quick getaways. Tbh if you've bought this car for traffic light grand prix you'll be disappointed. Obviously it's still pretty new at 1200mls so not trying to abuse it too much but it's quite a tricky car to launch, maybe that's because I'm not going at it...

    So is it a great car?

    Yep think that's how many if us felt after the limited test drives. You really need to get it run in and on one of you're favourite roads to appreciate it.

    Harry's Garage videos - visit to Hethel and Matt Windle interview, Emira collection and drive

    Still seems to love it 👍🏼 Gt3 touring for a bargain Interesting point about weight distribution and steering being similar to a 997, I've mentioned a few times the driving experience is not dissimilar to my 997 GTS

    I love a Nardo Audi RS car, regretted not having my rs5 in it tbh, but just don't think it works at all on a sports car body.

    What Will Lotus Show At Goodwood 2023?

    I love how there's talk of revealing a 4th car and they've hardly built any of the first one yet 🤣 Just keep revealing em boys, no one will notice we're not building em 🤣 They'll definitely be a Panarama show in 10yrs about how lotus used customer deposits for fictional cars to fund the worlds...

    Undecided if I'll modify the exhaust. Interior noise is supercharger dominated but there's quite a bit of exhaust noise outside

    First Eletre rolls off Chinese production line.

    I would have been tempted by that green on my Emira, went nimbus and love it. Just watched the car wow on the eletra and tbh half tempted to drop a deposit on one

    I suspect your right. My Ferrari would randomly chuck up (terrifying) lights as soon as the battery dropped charge. I've been using it daily and for some longer runs so its definitely not that.

    Another 718 GT4 vs. Emira Test Drive

    I've also had an f80 m4c , fun car if a little traction limited 😄 I mentioned elsewhere that I took a friend out the other day in my emira that had a couple of hours before been in his friend's 992 gts targa and was really surprised how much more of an event the emira felt. The 992 Gen 911...

    15 porsche car history, fan boy and last car was a 981 gt4, I really liked it, done 1100 mls in my Emira and imo its without doubt more fun and engaging as a road car (porsche is still built better unfortunately), maybe the roads we drive regularly make quite a difference in the outcomes of...

    So is it a great car?

    It sucks, but it's still a bargain compared to most things. I'm 1100mls in and it's certainly not been without its niggles but it's a fabulous thing Little different in the states though as your home grown stuff is so reasonably priced.

    Tbh the remote alone would possibly enough. If I could have track noise regardless of the setting I be happy
