You're a braver man than me :) No way would I have had that done in-situ

As per my post in "What did you do to your Emira today?" I had a new tyre fitted by a mobile fitter at the side of the road, due to an unexpected puncture(is there such a thin as an expected one?) Down side of this, is that I now have a Falcon tyre on the nearside wheel and a 7500 mile Goodyear...

Very similar scenario to mine, except replace Car with Tractor and he was definitely on my side of the road, not by much, but enough

Or just dont use them :) Although I understand the issues of distance and related cost may make that unviable

Given my history with Lotus cars and damage to them, yes a lot worse. Thankfully this time just a tyre. And very much an Oh SHIT !! moment, the Golf in front of me had an even closer encounter, but only hit a low grass verge, so he kept going

Spent most of my Friday evening doing this Tractor decided it wanted to use some of my side of the road, so I swerved to avoid it and unfortunately hit a sharp corner of curb stone. Front tyre punctured in 2 places in the side wall. 4.5hrs later all sorted and drove home.

If its been hacked, but we dont know by whom, then how do we get it ordered?

My Scorpion contract will be coming up for renewal in about a month and I wondered what deals others might have been offered when it came to renew Any good deals? Did most of you renew, or let the whole thing lapse? Interested in opinions on this. Trying to work out if its worth renewing or...

That has to be the biggest step up on here so far. Nicely done sir

How does it attach to the centre console. Nothing obvious on the ebay page to explain that

I use NOCO, had it for about 5yrs, as got it for the lack of driving during Covid. Its the 5A version and its been great, so much so, that I bought the 2A version for our EV, as thats not getting used much either One thing I would suggest and this applies to any manufacturer you choose is, get...

You're using Silverstone now ? :)

Worst was my very first fly-drive in the Florida a Nissan Sentra. Was a horrible car, the worst aspect being the Seat belt shoulder belt that was permanently engaged and slide around the door frame to the A piillar, when you opened the door and then to the B pillar when you closed the door. If...

OK that might work for me. Put it on the passengers side though :)

Once mine is out of Warranty, my car will be seen by an independent. Thankfully I have 3 or 4 that are quite close to me Most people buying Lotus's 2nd hand, know that an independent is a better option than a Dealership, for servicing and maintenance and the independent will still stamp the...

Is there such a things as a "grey import" as regards cars nowadays? Thought pretty much all car warranties were global. I mean, if I move from the UK to another country, I expect the car to still be covered by the warranty I currently have, so why would any other scenario, preclude this?

Got a link/pic?

I'm guessing the UK i4 is close to the V6 Auto? That lack of 40bhp makes a difference

Tested and the results were?

I also empty the nozzle as I take it from the pump, before it goes near the car

Lotus seemed to omit any reference to the 4cyl Turbo and that has lead everyone to believe its on the way out. The other view point could be, they didnt mention it, because nothing is changing for it. I can but hope

No way would I leave that, get it looked at

Yeah cos Geely will listen to a bunch of car nuts wanting to keep a tradition alive, rather than make financial decisions

This has been discussed/stated multiple times and simialr to @geoffbland statement, the website said 5yrs and that will be sufficient to hold Lotus to, should we need to. They corrected it sometime around August 2024, so any NEW car sold after that date will only have the 3yrs. The fact that the...

Where did these new Tweeters go? I'm assuming in the A-Pilar, but could someone confirm

I "think" the s/w fix came out after March, so if you really have not had one done since then, get the s/w up to date and it should resolve the issue If you really have not had any updates since March, why did the dealer not do them whilst they were fixing all the other issues. I mean, they only...

Dear god, "within 6hrs". Makes you realise how lucky we are in the UK. 6hrs would get you from end of the country to the other(well almost) :)

Sunday is a day of rest

Worryingly, I like the look of the Evora more from that angle

Lovely photo, not sure it should be a competition entry though

Did you point them towards this forum ?

There have been at least 2 software upgrades for the DCT since I bought mine in August 24 and I heard rumours of another one coming this month(August) too, from my dealer last Thursday

Unobtanium options - Convertible/Targa

Any reason you didnt include the V6 in the colour scheme ?

I'm so glad I asked :)

Right then, I'll be the one that admits to not having a clue about the interest in 18" wheels Whats the benefit of them? I assume there must be one

Whatever the auto-box decides on :)

I just dont get the fascination with Porsche. Design wise they strike me as quite dull, even boring. OK so some do drive nicely, their performance is good, but car ownership is about more than the physical and for me Porsche lacks that something else, that Lotus and especially the Emira has in...

Any other suggestions? I seem to remember people stating whether their readers worked or didnt with the Emira. It seemed quite few didnt.
