  1. You appear to becoming a bit of a fan of this Lotus (type) following your very good spot last week?
  2. But at what cost to the British taxpayer, one knee jerk reaction onto the next one, to quote an old saying (I’m sure the younger generation on here will have a trendier saying) “couldn’t organise a pi*s up in a brewery if they owned the brewery”.
  3. 7th April meet up about 9.45am venue; West Retford Hotel, 24 North Road, Retford DN22 7WB in the bar/lounge
  4. My invite sent 7.52pm 14th March from Silverstone was to me (Dear Darryl) to visit between 14th - 16th all very rushed! At least the invite to Sue from B&C gave us a couple of days notice.
  5. We are happy with our Eletre, although the smile from getting the Evora out of the garage is much bigger
  6. Impressive CV of cars including one of my favourites the Stratos RIP Marcello
  7. We possibly shouldn’t have closed our deep coal mines, we’ve lost a fair few coal power stations locally dare I say thanks too mrs thatcher?
  8. Our Eletre is certainly good fun to drive even on twisty roads.
  9. We have purchased an Eletre, but if Lotus had/where going to go down the hydrogen route; this would have been sat on our driveway alongside the GT430
  10. We left our Eletre in an unserviced container (no electric on hand) on morning of 2nd January and retrieved today 9th March just before midday. No the container is not heated. 72% charge when we left the car, 70% charge when Sue reversed out of the container, yes pleasantly surprised and happy.
  11. We needed to replace the front screen on our GT430 summer 2022 LV wouldn’t allow me to use a Lotus dealer it had to go through Autoglass (in Nottingham) even though Autoglass purchased the front screen through JCT600 Lotus Bradford, no issues
  12. Hi @exeterjeep Keith apologies for late reply yes on a cruise, 13A cable only used once as the Octopus charger has now been installed, although 13A charged Eletre it took a few days
  13. @Footie 340ish is base & S models 304 is for the R version
  14. Assume the new access/roads is for the delivery of batteries
  15. Believe Type 135 EV Sports car is too be built at Hethel when production of Emira comes to an end.
  16. Ours was off line morning of December 16th but reset itself about 9am, as we were going out of the country we weren’t able to let Lotus know until a few days ago. It would appear to be pretty random, hopefully Lotus can get to the bottom of the issue fairly quickly.
  17. @C8RKH Not if won the mega draw on the Euro lottery, it’s an awesome car that does deserve to be driven
  18. We are also showing a range of 311 miles when fully charged, which I assume will increase to circa 336 miles when battery conditioning is complete. On our first trip down to Southampton (200 miles away) I think we were showing we still had 50+ miles. When we plugged in for a top up.
  19. Wow that’s a lot of recalls
  20. According to Customer Care team, as of yesterday they are not aware of when the next update is or what the update is in relation to
  21. @C8RKH I‘be told both Conor Horner & Geoff Dowding about how crap dealing with Lotus is; either they aren’t listening or they aren’t interested!
  22. Believe me chaps it’s NO better with Eletre sales
  23. We went to the 75th anniversary event this morning at Central Lotus oh dear what a fiasco lots of Emiras to see, but apart from our Eletre having ceramic coating system applied no Eletres for prospective buyers to view; so today’s other guests pulled out as they were only interested in Eletre.
  24. @Alan-BE we have also purchased a 13A lead as not provided as part of the “toolkit” one of the car parks we use in Southampton stipulate that you must provide the 13A cable otherwise they won’t plug EV’s into their charging system.
