[Emira Road Tests & Reviews]

The front boot gap, really does look bigger than it should be on every one I’ve seen so far. I’m hoping they fix this for the final production cars, but can’t help thinking it would’ve been sorted by now if it could be made better…….🤔

Just got my genuine A19 Copperfire Esprit Turbo back today, after nearly 7 years of it being in service/storage, its a bit dusty so i will be giving it a good clean in the next few days, it will be on the market for sale soon, magazine featured, huge history file, passed its Mot last week, and before you ask i do have the Olin Mk6 prop skis, Mounts and a set of genuine Good Year tyres, i have owned for around a decade, its not going to be cheap though, any interested parties please pm me 

That’ll be this one then…..😉😎

Loving that last red Turbo Esprit (for obvious reasons😉)…..but never seen that one before. It was taxed all the way up to 2017.
Is the Blue S4s not the one the journalists used back at the time…..it went to Monaco with Matt Bishop if memory serves me right?

edit - turns out it was that car

[Emira Picture & Video Thread]

Looks so much better with these wheels…..😎 

[Emira Picture & Video Thread]

Great to see the cars……but to be honest this wheel design (for what I assume is the base model), is really bland, and they look terrible in gloss finish. Personal taste, clearly!!😕

[By420 Final Edition]

Stunning pics indeed!😎
Yip have to agree - the 420 should’ve come standard with Carbon Roof…..I ordered my Fire Red Exige with, it was a no brainer👍

[Emira GT4]

Really do hope they do a road version of this or dare I say it one that looks even more aggressive along the lines of all the Cup Exige cars……they’re bound to sell well. Porsche clearly think so….👍😎

[Exige Final editions]

Love it - I like to think I somehow influenced this spec….when I was one of the first to go Fire Red back in ‘18😉

Enjoy - they’re truly mental and great fun, and the public you pass by on your way, will love it!!😎

For those that have been waiting and waiting……Verdant Green👍

[Emira Picture & Video Thread]

Looks great in Yellow with those wheels😎

[Depreciation]

Lotus never made a 410 Cup👍

[Cup 430 Club]

Absolutely love that 430 Cup!!😍

[Emira door height.. will it fit in a trailer]

Woodford rl500.  250mm.  Problem me thinks

Ah I see what you mean now - the height of the lip on the door up to the underside of the Emira opened door. Yeah I can what you mean there……maybe this trailer type isn’t designed for low-slung sports cars?

[Emira door height.. will it fit in a trailer]

Struggle to see the issue - I’ve used a covered trailer previously and the door height never came into it…..🤔

[Pauls Exige 410 Sport]

Lovely - but it really is crying out for a Cup rear wing now!😬😉

Quite the panel gap at the front though

That jumped out at me too, during the Eletre launch…..

So will the 134 be something like a Rav4 or not that small?

It’s to be a Macan challenger, same as Eletre is targeting the Cayenne. But significantly Lotus will be ahead of both Porsches’ as they’ve gone electric first with both. 133 is going after Taycan buyers.

The strategy is clear - they’re going (together with Emira v Caymen) after Porsche customers head-on!👍

And why not….it’s a model that works, and there’s more than enough custom out there, to share. However the other part to this is Aftersales and customer care……Lotus have work to do here, but it will come!😎

Do we know it’s less than 100k-it’s a hyper suv- gotta be 250k?

It’s less than £100k👍

Glad to see Mick was ok after his crash - it was a big one! I honestly think this track is too quick for F1 cars……thought it last year and the same this year. I’m all for risk & reward but when there’s no chance when things go wrong for whatever reason, it starts to get dangerous! Hoping F1 doesn’t wait until AFTER someone is seriously hurt……

[Pauls Exige 410 Sport]

Great looking car @Paul_D - I take it you know your MOT is due on Sunday? A mate of mine up here in Scotland was down Newmarket way last week and spotted your car and mentioned it. Said it looked lovely on the road, in front👍

[GFWilliams Purple, Slightly Modified, Exige V6]

Looks good……but jeezus, your slow reveal teasers, are more drawn out than Lotus Cars own new car teasers! Just show us the bloody colour!😜😉

Brilliant Scott!😎👏🏻👏🏻

Is it me, I just think the silver wheels are too bright against it 🤔

Funny you say that as I think the same. I think an Anthracite wheel would work well for Emira👍😎
