    Should I disconnect the battery for 3 weeks away?

    I am not able to fit a trickle charger at the moment and have to keep a close eye on the charge levels which you can do in the Lotus App. I was nervous about the battery state but it is fine for 4 weeks in winter and 6 weeks in the summer (I live in Scotland). I havent driven the car for 4...

    Tyre Pressure

    Thanks everyone. It sounds like a poorly sealed rim edge is the most likely. I will head back to the garage and ask them to check the seal. A bit frustrating topping up the pressure every time I use the car. Thanks all.....

    Tyre Pressure

    I have had an issue with the tyre pressure on the drivers side front, if I leave the car for over a week the pressure drops to roughly 1.70 bar and the light comes on. Toping up the pressure confirms it's not a sensor issue. I took it to a Tyre specialist thinking I had a slow puncture but I...

    Sunday drive = first proper breakdown

    Great call but unfortunately I'm in an underground car park. The new house will have power in the garage if I decide to keep the Lotus. Appreciate the tip.

    Sunday drive = first proper breakdown

    Unfortunately I don't have any external power where I park right now. It would take the stress out if I did, to be fair I have left the car for 6 weeks in summer and it was fine.

    Sunday drive = first proper breakdown

    I had a bit of a scare at the weekend. Went to take the Emira for a spin as battery getting low after 5 weeks of no usage and it wouldn't unlock. I tried it 4 or 5 times and then it unlocked. I presumed the car battery was too low but the car started first time and then advised it couldn't...

    Lotus App Issues with Scorpion Tracker

    The tracker and app is working well. It's much easier however to configure it from the website than the app. You get 1 free push notification to your phone which I have used for a low battery alert. You can then buy up to 100 other alerts for £15 a year which seems pretty good to me. Speed...

    Lotus App Issues with Scorpion Tracker

    My tracker wasn't working on collection and a Scorpion engineer came out to see me today to fix it. Turns out quite a few cars have been leaving the factory with tracker issues which could be faulty units or not installing the units correctly. In my case the unit was fine but the wrong unit...

    📓 Journals Factory Tour & Drive Home - new Nimbus owner

    Picked up my car on Monday 16th from the factory. Really nice to get the tour from Scott and Sam, and impressive to see the set up. Much more modern than I was expecting and a lot of activity, must have been 80 cars in the factory or parking area. Incidentally my car was number 80 in the UK...

    Depreciation/Appreciation on New Lotus Emiras

    I had a call from Lotus finance today to say that my finance costs were less than they were pre Christmas because the resale values were better than expected. Unexpected saving. I also see a few cars for sale £10k over list price.

    Phone call from lotus

    Deposit paid 31st July and call this afternoon. I asked about delivery dates but the very friendly customer service agent advised they are not allowed to talk about delivery dates and don't have any information other than the first cars will be delivered Spring 2022. I did manage to find out...
