In the UK, Keyless entry is one of the primary methods Car thieves have been getting hold of high end cars. Approaching a house late at night/early morning and having a receiver/transmitter they can get close enough to the key that people leave near the front of the house and then getting the...

Will be placing the order today, so if anyone in the UK is interested in me picking up a set for them and bringing them back, please let me know by late afternoon. So far just Orchardbike has said he wants a set

Corrected that for you :D

I would go to Hethal and sit in reception until they meet you. Big sign out front stating who you want to see

Not sure what people are using as their source, I assume a phone. If the volume seem low, are you cranking the output from the phone up? May seem obvious, but if the output from the phone is low, no matter what you do on the Console will make it loud. Might also be worth checking if you have...

I do when the wife is in the car :( Otherwise its Sport.

In the UK, Tinting the driver/passenger window is a bit of a minefield. The law here says it cannot be darker than(I think) 10% anything darker and its illegal and cars to get pulled over. In really serious cases I have heard of cars being impounded on the spot.

Unfortunately, I have met numerous Porsche owners that know how to drive and better than me(I'm no driving god). What I dislike about Porsche is (1) There are so many of them, that they just dont seem/feel special (2) The general public have low opinion of them(I get let out of junctions...

The "just wont start" issue is/was a known one, that Lotus had provided a Software update for. If you are unsure if your car has all the updates, contact a dealer and they should be able to tell you

oooh, pics when you get it back and info on where and how much.

@mr.suntorytime Do you have many in stock? Planning on being in Florida middle of May, so will order them so they arrive at my hotel just as I get there. What is the delivery time to Florida? UK Members - If anyone is interested in getting these and has been put off by the shipping costs, I can...

Hell mate, I thought we would try and arrange a get together once you got your car back, before my holiday, not after it. Hope it is handed back when they say, but given your previous updates, I'd take their latest update with a pinch of salt

What do you use to clean them? I have so far just used a neat citrus wash, which does OK, but wondered if there is something better. I'm lazy, so anything that can be sprayed on and sprayed off is a plus :)

Oh dear god, Carbon Fibre rear window replacement. I WANT !!!

You arent going to lose that in the car park, or at night(anywhere)

Would you really be OK with paying upwards £120K for a Lotus? Given the usual issues with both quality of finish and customer service, I could never justify that expense on a Lotus

The guy is very good, seen a few of his previously released videos What worries me is, that with his experience and knowledge, JLR are still contesting it. What hope for the rest of us

I'm happy with my UK I4. The cost of a reworked Emira with a V8, is going to be prohibitive for most people

That sounds like the old software. When was the last time you took the car in for some work at a dealership? They should have applied all the available updates at that time. If your last visit was post September 2024, I would call the dealership and have them check. They WILL have a log of what...

Ironically, my voice assist seems have thrown a bit of a wobbly. Now it doesnt say anything, just waits for me to say something. Cannot be certain which one I am taling to, until something happens, or not

I dont care what it sounds like, I care what it drives like. Sound, get a V8 Drive, get a Lotus The rest fall somewhere in between

They will even pick you up on Brake pads. God forbid you have "Not for Road Use" Pads on your car and have an accident.

Thats really good news. I'm with them already for the Cars & House. :D

Nice area, lovely road, great colour

Who was that with?

As far as I am aware, nothing can be updated OTA, so to get the map updated it will need a dealership visit Doubt it will be free either.

Cones to match :)

Have no idea about immobilisers, although I have heard of ones that allow you to remotely immobilise, so the car is easier to find in a location of your choice, rather than the thieves. Do you know how they got around the Location services? A bit concerned about that one, as if it is easy to do...

How is that ever going to be considered a simple install, with that many cables/connections ?

Overall its going to be bad. Short term they will struggle with cash flow due to the restrictions in exporting to the US, long term they will struggle as their production is now all in China, except for the Emira.

Same applies to Android Auto, for those without Apple

Being totally unaware of all of this, a follow up Q What does Track do to ESC, that is therefore different to Sport mode? Its obviously still active in Track, or there would not be an additional button to turn it off completely.

There is?

Lucky 25yr old :)

I am paying about £650 for a year, no mileage limitations and £250 excess. I have one claim, but no points and live on the South Coast, but a medium risk area Thats about $850 at todays exchange rate.

I'm always amazed at how much you pay in the US for insurance. Not just car, but all types, but Car Insurance seems to be the worst.

Oh the comments :D

Had enough of it already ? Interested in hearing why you want to sell so soon

one out of thousands left to go

Or in the dark. I reckon it must glow. I love it. As mentioned in the bespoke thread, I'm a dark car person usually, but I'd have chosen that in a heart beat, if it had been an option
