    Race to the first i4

    I've never had the check engine light come on in my V6 but TBH I'm slightly jealous of the >300mile range without a full tank!! Only slightly!

    Overheating in traffic

    This sounds very much like the same thing. Really hope it doesn’t take months to resolve like @shaank emira did!!! Will be giving B&C a call tomorrow.

    Overheating in traffic

    I think you might be right as normally you can see the heat haze coming from the front vents which was completely absent this time. Didn’t have time to check the levels as I wash rushing for a flight but will check in a few days.

    Overheating in traffic

    So today was my first little problem I’ve had since picking it up in July. I got stuck in tailbacks on the M25 crawling along at 5mph. After about 20mins the temp started to rise and a warning for engine coolant came up on the dashboard. Fortunately the traffic was so bad I managed to switch...

    Race to the first i4

    Quite a number of new i4's have appeared on Autotrader this morning. Orphaned cars are making their way to the market if anyone out there is looking for a quick buy.

    Race to the first i4

    Good to hear. I've got a test drive with B&C in two weeks. It's going to be interesting stepping out of my auto V6, into the i4 and comparing the two.

    This makes me think that there are going to be quite a number of orphaned i4s Up for grabs.

    Lotus Type 135 EV sportscar

    https://finance.yahoo.com/news/aston-martin-delays-electric-debut-115552894.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall Will Lotus follow AM in stating the obvious?

    Bad News for China Sales??

    Bad time to launch new EVs and “rebrand” Lotus particularly in China. There are plenty of Eletres listed on the Lotus UK website for immediate collection as well. The EV market has cratered generally though. Volvo have pulled the plug on Polestar who now have to stand on their own two feet...

    Type approval is such BS. It would be more palatable if they were honest and open.

    How many miles has your Emira done?

    Good effort! Only 2,600 miles in after 6 months
  23. JClem

    2026 will be last year for Emira. Sad news.

    So they got 2 years to: • Deliver NA v6s • Deliver i4s everywhere but China • Deliver base models • Release S, R and Final Editions (not going to happen) I can’t help but think there are going to be a lot of disappointed customers out there.

    I remember using the configurator once for the v6 and it didn’t show a steering wheel! But I get your point.

    Race to the first i4

    So after Lotus called UK i4 orders saying delivery was delayed until summer 24 this has appeared on the available cars for delivery in 4 weeks. https://www.lotuscars.com/en-GB/car-locator/200:f52a0a27-ca1f-4cff-ac59-81df34e32189

    📓 Journals JClem's Magma V6

    So I had my first ‘moment’ at the weekend. I was coming up to a roundabout and accelerated to get into a gap in the traffic. I lifted the throttle which loaded the front and caused lift-off oversteer. Must have looked fairly dramatic from the outside going sideways round a roundabout...

    My 8 year old uses this which is also good for holiday hire cars: https://www.trunki.co.uk/products/boostapak-green My 5 year old sometimes uses the Trunki as well or we’ve got a Cybex car seat which offers better head support. He likes it because it‘s red and looks like a racing bucket seat...

    Carbon fiber bits

    Same here, although I would prefer the louvered rear window to match the vents. I guess that means I’ll have to get those in carbon as well!

    📓 Journals JClem's Magma V6

    She’s been parked at Heathrow for 4 days in freezing temperatures and started first time when I got back this morning like it was nothing. She was in good company though. Out of shot was an R8, a Supra and a DB11.
