I visited the dealer today to take a look at my car. The Ice grey with DV is a stellar combo, very happy with my choice. Ordered some Gtechniq ceramic coat for the leather, should keep it in good shape.

I'll have to PPF the leather :LOL:

Have questioned my choice of Ice interior over the Tan for my DV more times than I care to mention...in the early photos when I was configuring tan looked too orange for me, though now I think it looks great. In the end I want to spend more time driving it than looking at it, so any colour is...

Picked up some black badges to put on my DV with black calipers, black pack, ice grey interior and silver letters...the yellow pops were a distraction.

he probably thought you needed to add lightness

being mid (practically rear) engined all of the weight reduction will be on the rear axle, though I doubt it's significant enough to change dynamics

New Milltek exhaust video, sounding quite tasty

I have an Mx-5 (Miata) 30th AE on Eibach springs. It can be harsh on a bad British B road, tolerable but certainly not soft. However it does roll into a corner, not as much as the stock Mx-5, but it's there. So I think that harsh edge is more about its lightness and the initial travel of the...

Such a shame we have to have a front number plate in the UK! TH hit all the hopes I had for the Emira, not about the numbers, but the experience. Can't wait to get delivery in a few weeks.

My car's in PDI but I haven't had an invoice yet. They told me I'll get it after PDI.

that's Sam Reynolds, a well known mountain biker. I ride mtb too (not like him!), but won't be mounting mine no top of my Emira!

Only in So Cal

yes, hardly makes any sense at all! still get to see a lowered Emira in glorious DV

New video showing Komotec mods In German but works with Autotranslate

ok, has anyone ever had a British car that has had zero issues? Japanese ones don't count :LOL: I'll spare you my JLR horror stories (multiple vehicles)

Ironically exactly what you don't want on a track

Well that certainly explains his level of confidence and control on tight roads

About 4:20 in and again from 22:00 with pace notes! Probably the most exciting driving in an Emira I've seen - in this video it looks like the car I'd hoped it was. Of course I don't have those driving skills :LOL:

I got in touch with CS yesterday, I've been delayed again from Feb delivery to March.

Nimbus in the showroom, but DV in the test drive later in the video

bit of a rubbish opinion piece, author clearly has not driven one and just done internet research. Not that I disagree, but it's just not a qualified article.

Location has a higher impact that most other factors

thinking maybe buy an Evija, swap the badge with the Emira and then sell the Evija. So fairly low risk way of doing it.

Did a road trip through Wales a month ago. Got an empty A4069 (England match was on!), B5418 is nice, but even the A470 and A5 are pretty epic through Snowdonia if there's no traffic, and of course around Bala as mentioned already. In my Mx-5 ND with a heavy right foot I averaged 33mpg, I don't...

great infographics though :D And that the Emira is a smidgin behind a 410 Exige is pretty impressive given the weight penalty

nah

btw. it's listed at £99k at Anthony James and marked as Sold 😯 Anyone else gone for DV + Ice grey and questioning their decision daily? due for Feb delivery so don't want to change it now

there is no such seat option, lighting is pink / magenta, look at the background

black calipers for the win and please, some proper lighting!

"You need to really concentrate to execute a clean shift from third to second gear, and engaging reverse can be a challenge. " Just don't understand that comment, I test drove the car at B&C, can't say I was concentrating on the gear shifts, none of which I missed - I don't jump in and out of a...

Don't think this has been posted here yet

Showing remarkable restraint not doing doughnuts in the snow

safety feature

DV?

Now just waiting for someone to compare the Emira with a car 25x it's price :LOL:

for £2m they'd better be having fun

Thought that comment was weird too, didn't seem to be pushing nearly hard enough or in corners tight enough to be getting understeer

Well if EV makers are becoming aware that making them enjoyable to drive is worthwhile that's no bad thing. Presumably this must be the focus of the upcoming Lotus type 135, otherwise whats the point?
