  1. *** NOTE 1: this weekend the M25 is closed between junction 10 and 11 for A3 interchange work and hence local roads will be busier with diverted traffic *** *** NOTE 2: the average speed cameras on the road from Silent Pool/Albury junction to Newlands Corner are now active (in both directions) *** Time for another Sunday breakfast gathering for some of the finest bacon rolls around. This is our regular third Sunday of the month event, a chance to gather with like-minded enthusiasts and a cross section of Lotus models. Everyone welcome and we look forward to attendees from The Lotus Forums, SELOC, Lotus Drivers Club and Club Lotus. An informal gathering with no particular runs in or out organised, just a chance to chat, look at cars and take in the view. Join from 9.00 when the café opens for bacon rolls. We'll probably be around until 10.00/10.30. Location map for Newlands Corner here
  2. Great pics! Thanks to everyone who ignored the terrible weather forecast and braved the huge puddles on many of the local roads. We were rewarded with fantastic views from Newlands Corner and the rain held off while we chatted and enjoyed the bacon rolls.

  4. Welcome @Veloce_Rosso As Justin says, every third Sunday for breakfast meeting at Newlands Corner. https://forums.thelotusforums.com/forum/334-uk-slegs-southern-lotus-england-group/ There are usually several of the older cars attending, with owners happy to chat and show you around.

  6. I can’t make the Newlands Corner meet this Sunday as I’m away on business. But there will be plenty of other people and cars around. it’s every third Sunday of the month, and I’ll be at the January one. I’ll be bringing my 2011 Evora S - I also have a later Evora and and early Exige and used to have an Elise. Happy to chat in Jan or meet somewhere local in Surrey between Christmas and New Year.

  9. It was great to see such a range of cars and so many people, including regulars, old friends not seen for a while and a few newcomers. The A3 works were a good excuse to get up earlier and go the long way there on mostly empty roads.
  10. Good point. Diversion is via A246, so it will be busier on the A246, through the Clandons and at the A246/Clandon traffic lights.

    Congratulations! They are very special cars and noticeable different from the other Evora variants in the ways you describe. I've had mine since March and have enjoyed so many adventures with it already that I used up my annual insured mileage in 6 months and had to extend it! Looking forward to getting it out on track next year.
  13. ADAS is Advanced Driver Assistance Systems. A collection of sub-systems including things like blind spot assistance, automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning and correction, pedestrian avoidance, traffic sign recognition and adaptive cruise control. When Lotus launched the Emira they included ADAS in the published spec but then nothing was fitted to the V6 First Edition and they said it was TBD which variants would have it.

    Some GT430 fun from a recent trip to the Island of Man. The Sloc is a famous hill climb in the south west of the island. I need to sort a better microphone!

  17. One of the EmiraForum members had excellent service from Lotus Dijon when their car developed the limp mode fault while on a European road trip. They had all the latest factory software updates, diagnostic tools and service bulletins and were able to update the car and fix the issue for him. https://dbauto.fr/marque/lotus/
  18. Driver was the Lotus sales person, passenger was a prospective customer. Eletre was driving in convoy. Glad no one was hurt, could have been a lot worse. Cold Cup2s on a wet road not the best setup for trying to show how to drift the car. It does show you can access the engine bay by removing individual panels rather than the whole rear clam like on the Evora

  22. Yes, it's every third Sunday of the month. I usually post about it a week before each one but the details are the same.
  23. It was launched at the Garden Party yesterday, so I expect it will be available to order in the next week or so. It's two volumes and weighs 5kg!

    Thanks for the copies of the sheets. The one only covering LHD cars is the one I'd found. The list of UK cars from Simon on Facebook is what he'd sent me when I was looking - there are gaps and old info in it. A shame that the recovered UK file is prior to people making updates. The risk with making a shared doc editable is something gets deleted and it's hard to roll back. I'll bring these sources together with my other info from forum trawling and then maybe we can have a collaborative effort to get it up to date. Bear with me while I get through a couple of hectic work weeks before I can tackle it.
