    Don't worry, it's probably for someone else's car!

    Wiper speed issue

    I've been told that the wiper recall letter was actually meant to be a recall letter for other things. In my case it should have been for seat belts. The belts have already been replaced. It's part of a flurry of communication I've had from Lotus recently. In the past 5 days, I've had that...

    Sorry, have been offline for a while. I'll try and get a full update done with pics. Brief story is: Have had some issues. Have now done 1600 miles. Am pissed off with the weather, as I can't easily wash it! Overall I'm very happy - this is a proper upgrade for me as I'm coming from a 2010...

    UK deposit to order checkout to delivery process

    Mine was registered on the date I was given for collection. It was delivered to Bell and Colvill a day before that, but not registered. I reckon if you have a Jan delivery date, they'll register then.

    I now have another 'first world problem' Sadly, I don't have room for a garage, so my son in law built me a carport. I know it's kinda 70's, but that's all I have space for. Anyway, I have to reverse in, otherwise I can't open the drivers door as it'd be next to the wall. Before I received...

    Got it. Yes, he's right. You cannot change the speed units. All you can do is add kmp/h to the trip computer screens. Speed units are set per market
