Plus AUS Dollar is down 13% against UKP this last 12 months - ouch!

Very nearly a owner!

Can someone get the same photo of the Auto V6 to compare please (If they have one there)

I have contacted suppliers in Europe and Oz for Hethel Yellow. All have said they do not have the formula and cannot supply touch up kits. Surely Lotus must sell small bottles. Have they produced an Emira service manual or parts list yet?

Thanks for those codes. I then found this from an Oz site.

Thanks , this most helpful.

As above, Can owners please post the FE 6 paint codes for their car (I parsonally am after Hethel Yellow) as some of us need to match a few acessories. Thanks in advance.

Lotus Melbourne are excellent when it come to delivery and service. They always load the latest software before handing the car over ( depending of shipping it can be 2 to 3 months after it left Hethel) so by that time a few versions of software update may be available - I am led to believe the...

Close to my Ardent Red. Great colour.

Fantastic write up digilotus. After 22 months I am still not too sure when mine is coming but lets do a coffee when we can get them together.

Damn, it's showing new on BBC site. Apologies. Although I hadn't seen it. As Diana Ross sang And I'm still waiting Ooh, I'm waiting Ooh, still waiting I'm just a fool Ooh, I'm a fool (I'm just a fool to keep waiting) To keep waiting (I'm just a fool)

Asterisks are important - this is from first press release 20 Sept 2021. Homologation clearly did effect the performance of the auto version in the UK. Hopefully that doesn't apply to Australia and US. It would be good to get clarity of this issue and perhaps a press release. This change...

Was there any paint on the sticker adhesive when you removed it, asking for a friend. ;)

Perhaps with a manual - you can increase the revs during the gear change which will certainly add to the "kick" sensation. In my V6 Exige S, I dont change until 5000rpm or above (when driving more spirited) and I don't have to look at the dash to know what gear I am in - it just takes times to...

Same happened with the C8 here in Australia. Still too hard to get with rediculous wait times.

I follow this guy on YT as I am envious of how liberal the drone regulation are in the UK. Here in Oz it is illegal to fly over buildings, people or private property, national parks, etc - the Brits have sensible regulations for sub 250g drones. Onto the subject at hand, yesterday he was at...

Great shots - don't be shy in posting more for those of us that have orders for HY LBP. Rear shots and interior as well please.

I hope you are right. For an auto to be slower they would have to detune the engine or change transmission ratio (possibly to meet the emission target) - I am leaning that its a typo.

I have a 2016 V6 S3 Exige 350S. It has travelled 100,000Km and runs as good as the day I bought it. No oil leaks or any other issues. A great engine. This video is on a engine from 10 years ago (still worth a watch though) - lots of mods since then to eliminate early issues. To me the v6 is...

This just finished the Emira vs Porsche argument. I have been waiting 2 years for my car and NOW they announce it is slow. The resale of the auto has just taken a dive. Its slower than my daughters Audi stock S3.

Thanks Paul, good feedback as I am also coming from my current Exige 350s and I was worried there would be a "noticeable" difference in power. The math suggests it should be a few tenths slower but I have an auto transmission and getting another auto on the Emira (yes I enjoy it tremendously)...

Putting in sport mode will keep it in manual until you choose to cancel.

I have been driving a V6 Exige Auto for 7 years. Daily drive with over 100,000Km travelled. Had no trouble. Ordered Emira with Auto. Each to their own - I love it. Bullit proof. Cant speak for the AMG unit.

This type of post is most useful to all of us waiting for Auto news. Thanks.

That is unbelievable

Another good Event held the Lotus Melbourne (Simply Sports Cars) as mentioned by digilotus above. Just some other pics I took today. Its so hard to get a true representation of the Magma Red and Dark Verdant under mixed lighting. I did my best to white balance but its not perfect. I thought the...
