    UK Paint Warranty- Escalations bribery!

    What do we make of this then? Printed this of their website on 8/10/24. It now says Anti-Corrosion is 8 years ( down from 12). If lotus claim the paint is 3 years then that's a good reason for me to give it back when my 3 year pcp is done. https://www.lotuscars.com/en-GB/lotus-warranty/emira

    Auto100 - UK Trader in Sutton in Ashfield

    Sorry to hear that. If you bought the car on finance you'll be able to leverage their rejection process. If not, go nuclear legal, it'll take Lotus ( based on my experience) much more than 4 - 6 weeks to sort that lot.

    Top Speed

    I've seen 282 km/h on the autobahn - two lane , quite scary. Bottled going any faster but it had more to go. Was just over 6000 rpm in 6th at that point.

    How bad will the Emira depreciation be?

    The depreciation is steep enough that I'm glad mines on a 3 year PCP, When it's up in Feb 2026 I'll be giving it back. I'll be well over my predicted mileage ( intentionally) but at only 12p/mile it's small beer. I like to look at the cost of ownership/enjoyment in terms of £/mile so it will be...

    Recalls and software update, parts delay.

    Ah that's a lot to take on ( I'd almost consider myself a regular at JCT600) ; hang in there, they'll sort it in the end, you've got an early build and none of the issues are unknown.. They are somewhat hamstrung by Lotus though..

    Help to understand ownership experience before purchase

    I'm 18000 miles in, a Feb 2023 delivery, so quite an early one. Had some niggles, hvac replacement being the most serious, and thought they'd all been ironed out and now my washer jets have stopped working! Just got back from a Scottish road trip and it's been awesome, even in this company...

    Engine or exhaust rattle?

    Just washed it for the first time in ages, and at the end of a 200 mile journey. What do you think? Engine? Exhaust? Something else? Can only hear it on the left hand side

    Lotus Driving Experience

    I did the Academy on Saturday, pleasure to meet @RyanGphoto . Feel more confident in where the Emira's limits are now - the braking is phenomenal. I've also learnt' I can't drift for **it. Lots of LHD cars on site, all wrapped up awaiting their journey to their new owners.

    RWD vs AWD

    Had an AWD M5 and I8 before, both very capable in the damp/wet. The Emira needs, lets say, a more delicate touch, or in my case, more skill/care. I've had a similar code brown moment in the Emira quite recently! At least when you bury the throttle the power comes in gradually

    MISSING: Track mode from drive mode selector

    I once had a similar issue, but could only have track mode. Turn on, turn off and it cleared. Hasn't repeated itself but probably just a glitch.
