Isle of Skye, summer road trip

Ooops

The Emira is the first car I’ve had ppf applied and I’d say a big YES. it’s easier to keep looking clean and it’s saved me from some stone chipping. After 5k from new with ppf it’s still spotless.

Useful thanks. In Sep im taking two weeks driving down to Milan and back so fewer miles per day

Looks good. Please can you share some sound clips when it’s installed. Thx

Just for balance. Mine has been more reliable than my wife’s Bmwi4. The only issues so far in 4k miles Cel light in the first week - went off of its own accord Loose carpet trim, fixed under warranty Rear indicator error once - went off of own accord

I ordered a set from GRP and they took about 3 months to arrive.Fitting is pretty straightforward for anyone with a little car DIY. They really do transform the driving experience, the dash display stays where it’s put !

That’s been badly repaired. The masking tape was poorly applied and not fully removed.

Ouch. Bad luck. My wife’s polestar 2 had diamond cut wheels and it was about £175 to fix one with worse damage. Hers however were diamond cut and then polished which may be easier as any diamond cut marks are also polished out.

I renewed mine as part of a multi car policy a month or so ago and it was £590 down about 50 quid on last year. Indeed all three cars were a little cheaper. I’m using Ford Insure

I’m sorry some are struggling with CarPlay stability and disconnections. Mine has been really solid on an iPhone 15. What I came at is it’s massively better than my wife's BMWi4 where every week or so it refuses to connect and forgets the phone entirely.

Nothing really and I’m about one year and 3k miles in. Seen rear indicator fail once but returned after a few minutes.

I like the back ones but would probably pass on side and front vents. Good job though !

Sorry no. Mine had these three done recently as part of its planned service . CCM Software Up Date (131 24014) · ECM Software Up Date (131 24015) · CPC Software Up Date (131 24026)

Mine had a full ppf’d. Uk at Topaz. I’m pleased with it as it’s super easy to clean and it has already shown it’s worth deflecting a large stone just above the headlight

CPC -“This includes up-dated Gear Shifting Functionality”….according to my dealer

When you do get these can you get a list. It’s strange I had 3 applied and yours lists 5. I picked mine up in march last year so a year old.

Don’t worry I’m sure lotus will move production to the US…

My dealer did confirm it was applied: CPC Software Up Date (131 24026) is the one that covers the Controller Central Powertrain for the 4 Cylinder Emira cars. I did not experience any dramatic change but did not really have any issues beforehand. However I’d say it’s not a night and day...

I had three updates applied recenty. However non of these are obviously the gearbox update. Does anyone have the actual update name as my dealer seems oblivious to it. . CCM Software Up Date (131 24014) · ECM Software Up Date (131 24015) · CPC Software Up Date (131 24026)

I asked for this update to be applied a couple of months ago as part of a warranty set of fixes by Oakmere in Cheshire. I’ve not noticed any difference however since it came back so I’m wondering if they actually applied it ( they told me they had). Is there any way for me to check the software...

good for you…

I like the red seats….well done. I played it safe and went with black with yellow stitching but I think I prefer yours

Good idea.id like it so it fits below or over the lotus lettering

Used Topaz in Leeds and was pleased with the end result. The edges are all well done, nothing like your pictures I’m relieved to say! You definitely should get them to remove and refund. The only issue I have is some of the edges do collect dirt. I’ve had mine on 6 months and over yellow it...

3000 today in 6 months. No significant issues other than a heck engine lights the first 2 weeks after a full ppf

Simples….

Quite possible the worst most annoying “car journalist “ on the internet.

The only option I’ve found so far is this one https://aerieperformance.com/products/emira-i4-300cpsi-sports-catalyst-front-pipe-by-aerie-performance I’d be interested in it but only if if I can get a decent view of how it sound first and some guarantees it does not throw any warning codes.

Lucky you. At least JCT 600 are doing g something. Oakmere in Cheshire have been totally useless even arranging for my issues to be resolved.

I’d agree with all the above comments. I’ve done 3k in my i4 now and love it. The engine is a bit of a monster on boost and when going sounds good ….just not as good as the v6. The dsg is also good but could be a bit quicker on downshifts but in reality I don’t notice a delay. For me I like the...

I don’t think any car these days is recall free. There are always some things that need fixing

Im currently struggling to get Oakmere to fix the carpet which was broken from delivery. Despite many calls I can’t get them to respond to the warranty request to fix it. I’m really disappointed with them, when I had my last Lotus they were pretty good but not now. I’ll add the above to my call...
