It wasn't me flying, the dip at the last minute was because the pilot saw an electricity cable spanning the entrance

This was taken a couple of weeks ago on a Mavic

Bottom right is a Linde Werdelin Spidolite Tech Green made from forged carbon so very strong and light. The winder is by Barrington https://www.barringtonwatchwinders.com/watch-winders/multi-watch-winders/6-watch-winder

The discs are being sent to Hethel for them to investigate the cause of the problem

Indeed they do but seeing as I was already at Silverstone having the problem diagnosed I decided not to shop around and just have them replaced for convenience. Is it worth speaking to Lotus warranty department?

Only done one track day and haven't been sliding the car around. The discs weren't replaced under warranty as I assumed they were consumables? They set me back about £180 each plus labour

It wasn't a hot track day and tc was hardly doing anything. Bear in mind the td was back in late August so it's done quite a few road miles since with no issue until the last few weeks

I noticed some juddering and noises under braking from the rear so took the car to Lotus Silverstone today. Somehow I've managed to warp the rear discs! My car is a 2015 (65 plate) with circa 8,500 miles and one track day under its belt back in August and still about 9mm of rear pad material left. I always drive the car in sport, including on the track day and it doesn't really have a hard life so seems strange they've warped. Does this sound normal?

Just stumbled across this thread and been into watches as long as I can remember. Received my Omega Seamaster for my 18th back in 1999 and started collecting since then. TZUK is a good forum but dangerous on the bank balance Here's some of my current collection Untitled by Alex L, on Flickr Currently wearing my BLNR on Everest rubber Untitled by Alex L, on Flickr

Gary, who is doing your install - Hofmann? It's bonus time soon so considering making mine a little quicker too.

It sure does, I "won" a plate in the last auction - my bid was £2,200 and the final price was £3,086

Thanks, that's the kind of info I'm after and also why the SSC option seems more sensible

Thanks both. Hangar 111 Dave - I'm weighing up options at the moment and suspect the Komo-Tec 430 would be the level I'm looking for. I'll give you a call if I have any questions.

I'm considering some level of performance upgrade to mine and like the idea of the SSC route with the larger supercharger. Has anyone in the UK been down this route and if so who undertakes the fitting/mapping?

What a difference the new wiper has made. I've owned the car for almost a year and only used the old wiper once, it skipped all over the place and didn't move any water. I'm happy I went for the 24 incher as I suspect the additional 2 inches of the larger blade probably won't make contact with the screen.
