I know an Emira is not about top speed… In fact it’s one of its least important numbers…. however I still like driving too fast as and when it’s suitable. I’ve had mine is to just over 150mph (243 kmh) and it felt pretty lively - fun but lively! It was on a undulating slightly curved section...

I’ve never liked the red starter switch cover. Esp on a Seneca car with black alcantara interior and yellow brake callipers. If I had a red car or red callipers it makes sense but red doesn’t work for my car… I wanted to take it off to paint / stain / powder coat it but sadly it’s plastic...

Anyone know who you remove the gear gaiter as I want to send it off to be replaced by an alcantara one? I think you remove the gear knob by undoing the grub screw on the back but then what? Do you just force the gaiter down around the edges or does the centre panel need to be removed?

Where the f is the ODD port? I just spent 20 mins digging around looking for it and can’t find it anywhere!!! Under the steering wheel? Nope. Under the passenger side!? Nope. By the battery? Nope. In the boot? Nope. In the back? Nope. Or maybe I’m just a little blind / tired!!!

Has anyone done anything else to the red starter button protector? I was wanting to change the colour of mine as I hate the red - it doesn’t go with anything. Maybe yellow, match the stitching / callipers? Or maybe black? Can it be done? I’ve heard about dying plastic another colour but was...

Anyone else had a heater issue? This morning the car would only blow warm air at my feet, it wouldn't blow anything on the screen or towards your body. I tried adjusting all the settings with both the manual buttons and the screen ones, no difference. The temp also only stayed warm all the...

I just thought I'd see what you guys think on my situation. 1. When I originally ordered the car online I wanted privacy glass. 2. Once I had seen it I decided it was too dark for me and asked for it to be removed (along with a few other changes). This change was made during the period Lotus...

The main screen can suffer from glare in a few light conditions - nothing major but something that i think can be easily citified with a matt film. Has anyone else tried using a matt film on theirs? I bought at iPad pro one from Amazon which is very nearly big enough to cover the screen. I say...

Does anyone know how you turn the air-con on AND have the heating on at the same time? I have a air-con max button that overrides all the temp settings. In the morning I like running the air-con and the heating at the same time as it de-mists perfectly whilst staying warm... At the moment to...

Battery conditioner fitted... and it's thrown up an error Light on dash! 2nd mod fitted ;-) if you can call it that! I'm claiming it! I fitted a CTEK battery charger today . It needed M8 sized connectors to connect to the battery - which i had. I added some additional duct tape to the cable...

Today was a very good day. I picked up the car from lotus Sussex just after it finished raining and have already put 100 miles on it driving round avoiding the flooded roads. The car feels great. I’ve got the tour suspension but it felt surprisingly similar to the sport I test drove - I’m...

In order to avoid any further delays does anyone have any thoughts on where to get your vehicle delivered? 1) Hethel 2) Dealer of choice (B&C) 3) Home delivery (East Sussex) I’m pretty happy getting it any which way. I’m not overly keen on the fanfare but I also don’t wan’t to be a grinch and...

Bell & Colvill have scheduled their opening day for their new showroom for Saturday October 1st. It’s an invitation only event, presumable for deposit holders who have specified them as their service centre as well as for their existing customers. I’ve been told on good authority that they...

I was wondering if people know where they are in the new car queue? I’ve asked Lotus a couple of times and been fobbed off yet I’ve seen a few people saying they know what slot number they have. I’m down for a July car as I placed my deposit on launch day (a few days before Goodwood) but...

I was down for a June delivery but I’ve just received this from Lotus… As you’ll be aware from our previous communication, your new Emira specification is now fixed in our production system and scheduled to be completed in June 2022. Therefore, we are pleased to inform you that your new Emira...
