Immobiliser and alarm factory fitted?

[Scruff111S]

Good evening guys, just going through an insurance quote. Could anyone please tell me what, if any, immobiliser and alarm is factory fitted to the Emira?

Yes. The manual talks about an alarm. All modern cars with a chipped key also have an immobiliser.

The make of the alarm/immobiliser is not mentioned in the now elusive manual. It is almost certain to be a Thatcham approved alarm as all previous Lotus models. See link below.
