Lotus Emira - South UK (new-ish to here)

[LotusTaylor]

Hey Everyone!


Not exactly a brand new member, as I've been active on here a handful of times, but thought I'd introduce myself properly.

Exactly a year ago (as of yesterday) I purchased my 2024 Lotus Emira V6 Manual with Tour Chassis in Shadow Grey from Lotus Hatfield.
It was the showroom car and so had about 6 months of pre-reg time on it, and I genuinely could not have been happier.

Since then, I've travelled 7500 miles, once to Southern Spain via the Pyrenees, once to the Nurburgring, a couple of track days and lots of beautiful journeys around the UK (with quite a few track days planned for next year already).

I'll endeavour to be a bit more active on here and would be great to attend a meet in the New Year.

So great to meet you all

Lastly, I've also turned my hand to trying to make some (hopefully) fun videos about my Lotus Emira & general driving experiences, so I hope you don't mind me sharing here.

Nice! I drive past Camberley on my way to the office (not in the Lotus sadly..)

I am indeed quite local - would be great to come to a meet when Spring opens up!

There are a group of us in the Dorset area that get together quite a bit, but rarely in the depths of Winter.
If you PM me your contact details, I'll add you to a whatsapp group we use to coordinate

There’s a meet every month on the border of Herts/Essex that’s really friendly (plus we meet by an excellent cafe!).

Dorset here too, although only just over the Hampshire border.

We must be fairly close to each other, I'm Poole based

Love to see details of this and see if I can make it up there in Spring!

Great to have another local! I've not yet attended, but a friend of mine has recommended the Wilton House Wake Up event a few times. Could be a good place. https://www.wiltonhouse.co.uk/events/wake-up/

Ah yes absolutely - I'm Southampton!

Hi guys. I’m in Bournemouth so likewise would be good to meet up.

 

[Frimley111R]

I've managed to become the organiser on Pistonheads of a local meet (anyone weclome). Probably and C&M near Farnham. I'll confirm when I can but if any of you can make it, it would be great to see you. Update,26 Feb for first one.

Hell, we are virtually neighbours, doubt there is more than 6-7 miles between us

I could probably do this one! Would be great.

I feel a local South meet coming on.
