This is the content I’m here for! 600 miles in and absolutely loving it.

I’ve had similar issues. Cooling and heating not an issue but fan speed is temperamental. Lotus Surrey did a software update but said the HVAC resistor motor needed replacing. So they’ve ordered the part and it will be back in in September.

First long trip done! 450 miles in 2 and a half days and I’m happy to report no issues whatsoever. Driving through the Peak District in the sun was fantastic and even the wife told me to go faster! Looking forward to the next one.

The attention this car gets! Whilst washing and buffing this morning my neighbours popped over to have a look around. Immediately after they left two builders from across the road were staring and saying “is that a Lotus?”. Starting her up in track mode went down well with both. Climate...

I’m getting updates on Wednesday. Fingers crossed it solves my climate control issues.

Yes I had it despite picking mine up a week ago.

But, in true Lotus fashion the climate control worked perfectly driving to work this morning! 🙄

I phoned Scorpion and the chap was very helpful but initially said he'd never come across this before. When I switched the ignition on he straight away said Lotus need to send an additional command for it to work. So of course that means dealing with Lotus CC! Three phone calls and online chat...

Did it sound like this?

Day 4 update. The car is fantastic. The looks, the ride, the noise and I'm even impressed with the build quality of the interior. There two things though not currently working. The Scorpion tracked isn't working but this is apparently down to Lotus not sending all commands to the unit. The...

Picked it up yesterday. Totally agree, It’s fantastic

I'm not sure about fully restored but it was certainly in very good condition.

Initially I was kind of taken back with it. But after walking around it for a bit it definitely grew on me.

Yes, it looked massive with this lovely Elan on the other side of the room.

Handover day! Extremely happy to say the least. Even in the dull British weather it looks fantastic. Loving the rumbles, burbles and pops in Sport mode. And nothing to report on the reliability front, although there's a long way to go with that. I think my 4 year old son is more excited about...

Car park of the Shy Horse pub on the Leatherhead Road. I think it’s Supercars of Surrey car meet

My wife said exactly the same thing when I couldn’t make up my mind on the colour. Saw a Seneca Emira today at a meet in Chessington and it was holding its own against Lambos, Ferraris etc. The Porsches looked almost mundane in comparison. Great photo too.

The 11th Aug date was playing on my mind too and given the OTR price on the V6 was the same price as the i4 it felt like a no brainer.

After Goodwood I decided I preferred a bit of theatre and noise. Plus I’ve never had a supercharged engine. And available now! Who knows, I may decide to give the i4 a go further down the line

Thanks. Thread with spec is here: https://www.emiraforum.com/threads/jclems-magma-v6.3385/

Well I don't know, Hethel Yellow with red interior is a bold choice!

They did yes, very much out of the blue.

I took advantage and will collect an auto V6 on Monday, 2 weeks after being contacted. I originally had an i4FE on order. I wonder whether they have been contacting anyone who has a delivery scheduled for next year to try and bring sales into this financial year.

Your collecting from B&C in Horsley? I had an email today saying the car that had arrived earlier this week isn't mine but no bother as mine arrived today. I'm guessing then that this one is yours? My handover has been changed to late afternoon so I may see you there.

All is well! Invoice received, balance paid, handover Monday morning. Can't wait!

I see your point, but they should be issuing the invoice as soon as it leaves Hethel. It seems, having spoken to Lotus CC, that no one is aware that handover is planned for Friday or that the final invoice hasn't been sent out.
