I thought it was farther away... ;)

The DB9 is my car dream, the next-in-the-row forever car. I'm sure I "must" buy it one day. But my idea is a car with less kms and when possible, after the facelift with LED-daylights. Thanks anyway!

It's like in medical practice. The Czech Association of Doctors issued a door sticker: "The time for which the patient is booked is the time when he begins to wait for treatment by a doctor. The actual time when he will be examined is decided by the doctor according to the urgency of the cases...

kms? price? make an offer! :cool:

Manufacturers in the time of covid understood that it is better to produce a smaller amount of goods with a larger margin than to constantly oversupply the market and sell at discounts. A perfect example is our (Czech/German) Skoda Auto, they produce a few tens of percent less cars than before...

Car dealers in the EU today (off record) say that the only reason the crisis has not fully manifested itself is the lack of cars due to a damaged production chain. If cars were produced in the same numbers as before, every dealer would have full warehouses and there would be a price war...

Why should he be an idiot?

The only Lotus dealership in our country is fine but I have a very bad experience with Porsche Prague. They are the first to check if you are on the Forbes list of the richest, and if you are not, they will not even answer your email. When you go there to buy parts for an older Porsche, they...

My forever cars are (I mean really for my life long): - 1994 XJS 6.0 V12 Convertible - bought in 2016 - not particularly strong in handling, but the looks and show of how big a car can (could then) be that is so small inside... and of course that monstrous 12 cylinder, the sign of the ending era...

I already wrote it here, with my 250 lbs I perceive the seats in the Emira as excellent. And another member wrote that he feels the same way with his 350 lbs. So we just have to make sure that the exercise is not anti-productive! :ROFLMAO:

I'm a little afraid that my Emira will show some nice tricks in the spring. :rolleyes: Now it stands in peace and quiet in the garage, there are 30 cm (1 foot :ROFLMAO:) of snow in our highlands. ❄️☃️⛷️

You can find my thread here: https://www.emiraforum.com/threads/new-member-with-first-czech-emira.2064/

I'm definitely sure that Emira is much lighter, simpler and more analog than a normal BMW, let alone a BMW M.

I am quite surprised by the whole discussion about who and when registers a new car. In our country and similarly in Germany, I have to grant a power of attorney to someone or a company. Thus, I know who is registering the car for me and I can also determine the date when the car is registered...

I'm sure that you will be satisfied. Hethel Yellow Emiras are at least twice so good than the other colours :ROFLMAO: ... Enjoy your test drive! (My spec: Hethel Yellow, Sport, but Goodyears...)

As @Evotion wrote: It is just not quite what we all expected from such a brand. I guess we all built up this huge expectation. ... Maybe this can be the reason for my dissatisfaction.

No, unfortunately not. It is the worst issue for me. But overall my Emira makes me happy! :cool:

It is fine when listening to some digital source music such as Apple CarPlay but definitely bad when listening to the radio.

Yes, Geely have bought the badge, the legacy and heritage - these are all very important attributes to be able to sell a Chinese mass product (coming cars made in Wuhan, China) in demanding markets and also better than the standard Chinese product in the market in China. For relatively little...

Don't be so optimistic... two of them won't fit... you have to find a smaller box ;)

A few of the cars sold may be flipped for a higher price. But at this higher price, the entire production of the model would not be sold. Just my thoughts...

Porsche can go higher too. It would be weird if they didn't raise the price with inflation so high. Update: Sorry, written at the same time as @Tonyshepp.

In the last two years, there were a lot of interested parties on the market who could not buy cars due to the shortage. Now prices are increasing and logically the number of people interested in cars is decreasing, but it is still enough for manufacturers to sell their current production...

Fashion brands have a different market than cars. They have a much larger margin and can adjust prices downwards if necessary. This is not possible in automotive to such an extent.

And I thought I was a mustard specialist when I have three sorts of it and even go to Germany to buy them all. :ROFLMAO:

The final product after 90 minutes of work :cool: ... on Monday my Emira will go under a cover and sleep 🛏️😴💤 until the snow leaves us 🌸🌞🌡️

Yes, you can be right, but 4% yearly is not a steep increase... I'm involved in the camper van market, Bürstner price increase Aug 2021/Aug 2022 (in only 12 months!!!) is about 23 %, Sun Living as much as 29 % in average and 32 % for some models (all dates German MSRP).

German price for a V6 FE manual without Extended Black Pack is 95.995 EUR. The mobile.de price is very high, by more than 25 % higher than MSRP. I expect the price of 149.414 EUR in the Netherlands includes the NL-related taxes, am I right?

Another thing is that 5k over list now can be less money than waiting another 18 months for the car. I don't believe that with current inflation across Europe, Lotus will keep prices at current levels. 5k = 6 percent of the current car price If the price only increases by 5k in 18 months, that...

Hethel Yellow is a mustard tone when there is little natural light and changes to a more neutral yellow when there is a lot of it. You can see it in the attached photos.

Last wash in this year. Winter sleep planned. :(

Less work (CTRL+C - CTRL+V) but works fine so: There are 3 levels of dimming as you can see. Try to set the best one for you!
