Nothing new - just a few last shots before the Blue Emira heads back to Europe.. Some people asked about the pedals. so I tool a few shots.

As we are chatting about suspension - I found it slightly interesting how the car moves with people just sitting in the seat. This sped up movie from last weekend shown the movement, mostly at front with one person getting in the car. This Emira is LHD. Best play at full size. Clearest video at...

For some reason it doesn't work on my PC either - still does on my iPad - possibly as I got it through a google alert it my be only avail through my google address.:rolleyes: The last paragraph:- Lotus boasts the Emira is the most comfortable and versatile street car it has ever built. For a...

This link seems to work for the Ozzie AFR without subscription. A fair and reasonable opinion piece from a journalist who drove the Emira around Bathurst...

I have watched all the reviews and thought they were better than my expectations. Perhaps that just me. I went into this purchase knowing this was the first version of a new car, same engine and transmission etc as Exige/Evora - and I know the Emira is heavier because of all those luxury items...

An ants view......

Here in Australia we are paying £120k for an Emira - that's list price! Our tax system is screwed and of course we are a long way from Hethel. That said its all relative as Lotus holds its value ridiculously well. I consider it still good value. example...

It cant be "on purpose" as the cars that are properly aligned would be faulty ;) I am sure this will be solved before we all get our cars. So many pre-production cars on the road being photographed but not one "production" customer car delivered. So way to early to worry yet. Lotus are aware of...

I am expecting delivery in Aug (may slip to Sept) for a V6 Auto. I currently have a V6 Auto Exige (my2015) and I cant fault it. Easy to drive around town when I have my wife joining me but switch to sport with paddles and it comes to life (the car not my wife). I am expecting the Emira to be...

I am one that isn't too troubled by the wheel gap. Sure in this instance smaller is perhaps better. Compared to the on road shots of the Ferrari F8 (ie not configurator) the Emira is quite good.

Re bonnet/hood . It looks as if the 3 screws theory is correct. You can see 2 (of the 3) capture nuts.

A brief summary on the car in Melbourne.

Perfect

The maths just don't add up - perhaps if its 1.27 or less I would be very happy.

Perfect - yellow no black pack.

Red

A little bit of fun. "Pick'O'Color"

The Lotus guys in Melbourne stated that it looks like a larger gap that is intended for production. I was under the impression that the SB car was built at least 8 weeks ago and production has moved on. So perhaps it will be lower when the final cars roll of the line. The SC Melbourne car (shown...

It is alleged that Lotus OZ is taking the Emira to Mt Panorama this week. Should be some good pics/video of that 😀

That's way too much gap. Hopefully Lotus sort it before releasing the production version.

I also was torn between leather/alcantara but ended up going full black leather. So no contrast stitching available. I also have not seen a full leather yet. I am not too sure if the speaker covers remain as silver (not black as shown in the configurator). I have black leather in the 2015 Exige...

2015 V6 350S

Sorry I should have been clearer, the Exige battery is also in the rear but has +ve and -ve terminal points in the front so you can jump the car from the rear or front. I am not too sure if the Emira has this function. On the Exige you can pop the hood off the outside ie no screws.
