I had the cover off the pax footwell last night and theres a bit of dead space above the fuse box....

keep it topped up and see if it makes a difference on start parking as you would normally. When it died it was nose up. When I reversed if back off the road it ended up flat-ish nose to tail but slightly off side down. a gallon made hardly any difference it spluttered but didn't start. Fired...

also the warning when out of fuel on the centre screen is a triangle exclamation mark combo which says 'out of P' Surely the code monkeys could make it read 'Out of Fuel' ffs One is not thinking clearly with an £80k spanking new motor dead on a live highway

I have run out of fuel twice now. Don't think I got the triangle but defo the amber EML on both occasions. After 'a while' restart etc the EML disappeared.

So running out of fuel means you get these 'free' warnings too... Brake Failure Stop Safely Parking Brake Service Required Gearbox Malfunction Service Required A wiper one flashed up but disappeared under one of the above... Also has the amber brake warning caption and the EML illuminated amber...

dunno cant remember to be fair but i think it looked proportional to the numerical range left Are you proposing that line is the gauge and the range is numerical and not the same thing??? ie the line is NOT a graphical representation of the number?

The first outage was when it was parked at home it was on a slope on the drive diagonally across the slope so NSR low OSF high. It was reading 115 range then and I think after filling I calculated it must have had no more than 4l in the tank. It was running fine today on the flat as I passed the...

I think it was up there similar John when I collected from hethel. I brimmed it at the pump and have done about 8 miles since and the display shows 230m range. Its on the flat in the garage and has been for a while now. I appreciate it takes a while to register based on others experience. I'll...

it was coz it was completely empty based on tank capacity and how much I put back in

needs both IMO or at least as a preference Must be a sticking faulty sensor. Assuming its mechanical I'll slosh it side to side a bit see if that makes a difference (y)

Dropped my daughter at gym this morning noted the fuel was at 100 or so miles to run (this is retarded show me litres/gallons).. Passed a shell station 15 mins later, looked at the gauge reading 90...I should turnaround and fill up... nah I'll get home (i have a stash). 1/2m later on a hill...

I have an iphone 14 pro (I had to look in setting coz I had not a clue) IOS16.5 Push notifications working fine Phone tag working perfectly Had help on the phone with Scorpion who were very good.

and you reminded me to clarify. The bobbins are not nylon but either very hard alloy or maybe steel. I'll get a magnet on the job!

and the boot was open......

same here with my auto its fab. The reversing camera and screen is way better than the Porker although because I am very old I just dont fully trust it and always default to the mirrors.

thats a real shame and ballache. Had mine on full chat today and its defo the best in anything I have owned before. I do have to top it up but my 1998 Esprit still works fine (y)

With hind sight I wish I never had a test drive. The whole event was completely counter productive and it nearly cost me a cancellation. Including collection day I have driven it every day for the 12 days of ownership. I think the only thing I now have a bit of a gripe about is the wheel. Its...

Lotus Cortina. Frying pan and Fire :ROFLMAO: My dad had one in the 80's and paid 400 quid for it to practice shimming the valves so he didnt get it wrong doing the same on the Elan. Now that 400 quid car is worth as much or more than the Elan!

how can you tell what it is with that bloody din playing over the top :sick:

HY is S201

I get folks binning out due to reliability issues. I nad a new Kia Stinger GTS for 4 years and apart from a recall to fix a small rattle on the tailgate it was faultless and a dream to drive and own. It cost not far of 1/3 of the Taycan I have now. The Taycan and the dealer experience has been...

what John said 👆 It would be interesting to know whos was built first. Mine is 521 on the line for the UK. Very early deposit May 2021 and Auto

👆 this is a manual

i was advised to run it on super. I have a Shell station 1m mile away

I could not log in via the app so called scorpion. I was very impressed as the chap on the phone sorted it in about 10 mins. reflashed the tracker remotely with a software update and sorted my password out for the app. Worked first time so now I can ditch the silly fob in favour of using my...

414 miles and i'll let you know....

just noticed this 👆 The seats are not as bad as I first thought. I went for alcantara and i think that helps as your ass wont slide like it might on leather. I'm certainly getting used to them being not at all 'buckety'. Also the seat base height is not an issue. When driving it all feels just...

running in rev limit is not helping your experience. Get your 1000miles on or whatever that equates to in metric and give it the beans in sport or track and you will see the difference. The more gas you give it the snappier the shifts 2nd to 3rd especially Its not a DCT/DSG but even upto 4k rpm...

I would like to think this is a positive thread that could benefit production if anyone at the factory is watching. Maybe it will help improve quality for those down the line from us early owners. I'll post photos when i get a second. So far in the drivers footwell I found a tiny steel spring...

I just did Friday PM but factory was on a shut down for maintenance still very interesting as you could sort of see more.. The best day to get it is as soon as you can or you are missing out getting it run in before the crap weather arrives!!!!!

this... is complete clap trap as i got an email on the 6th of April saying mine was with the transport team back then. I got mine so late after due to me messing about not Lotus. It was ready to be delivered/collected back then.

I only remembered this yesterday and like the rest of the touchscreen setup I think its really good.

If you can I would go to the factory to get it. Probably quicker than the delivery palava but I don't know this as a fact. I see no reason for them not to do everything they can to get the car gone and you cash in the bank. Contrary to the majority on here everyone I have dealt with representing...

Its almost certainly due to it being auto and the emissions/approvals etc. 385 miles now. I'm finding every excuse to go 'the long way round' for every trip :cool:

Brilliant. Nice to see your start routine must be same as mine. Press start. Both windows down Push mode switch forward twice Go As soon as I get to 1000m i will stick a camera on the arse end to get some auto shift 'music'

I asked what my build number was... 521st for UK market and I think it was completed in late April

We couldn't take any photos in the factory. The pod sits on the underside of the front grill/intake aperture and is a trapezoidal shape with the longer base of the trapezoid at the top. The size appears to be about 200mm across the top about 50mm deep and maybe 125mm underneath on the short...
