Here's Number27 comparing my Emira to an Evora 410...
Was fun to compare the cars and do some of the driving in the film! I think Jack liked it, and the obvious conclusion is the Emira is a dialed back, but more usable version of the Evora. Shocker!
Seeing as the dealer is unable to provide these, and Lotus is unable to provide anyone with the paint formula, I'm going to get my car scanned and some paint mixed up and made into touch in pots. Obviously they have to mix much more than one pot of paint...

Has anyone tried to call UK CS this week? Simply not answering the phone or calling back despite sitting in the queue from opening time at 10am!
I have a car sat at the dealer I'd really like to pay for.
Anyone who has taken delivery recently able to comment on the configuration lock -> production time delay?
I was invited 1st March to lock in configuration for June production (Sept 2021 order). Last month I was shuffed from June production to July, so seems to have come forward...
