Redwing

I don't know @Karl M Roberts personally, even though he lives only a couple of miles away from me. However, we do have a mutual acquaintance, who I saw today, who told me that Karl had changed his choice to an i4. This, therefore, enables Lotus to supply the 'first' Emira to whoever they want. Considering that Karl put his deposit down some 12 months before the Emira was even announced, I sincerely hope he gets the first i4.

Honeywell, is that you?

I agree with him completely. Just not sure about the choice of finger jewelry or nail varnish.

If they don't cancel it, I'm down to 100/1.😋

I've bought two on account of I've never won jacksh** in my life, but 500/1 sounds better than 1000/1. Fingers crossed.

I said or, not and.

Tried incest or Morris dancing.

For those interested in this, see also "Good Morning Good Night Lotus Shifter Adjustment" on YouTube. (I'd post the link, but I'm sadly lacking in this respect)

Dare I say it, but I think the Evora looks better from that viewpoint.

Happy Birthday 👍

Outside of Quali, the main story of the weekend seems to be 'Hissy Crissy' Horner and Helmet Darko protesting to the FIA that Aston Martin have copied RB's aero/bodywork. Well, judging by the results, it obviously paid off for AM, not. I'm sure that this was purely a move made to add spice to next year's 'Drive to Survive' on Netflix.

Long arms, short pockets. Or is it the other way round?

Based on my experience of an S1 NA, just be careful separating the velcro attachments and you should have no problem.

Mine comes up as an S with insurance companies, its MOTs always say it's an SR, but the VED is always correct. I suppose I've got the best of all worlds.🤣

It even has 'drinks holders'.

Apropos of nothing, and as a matter of Interest, so many of us on here hold great stock on the issue of whether the clutch has been changed on early Evoras. I have had mine for five and a half years, (01/2011 NA sport pack), and gone from 28-37k miles (I know, sad innit) with no problem. At every service, with a reputable, but now disenfranchised, specialist, they report that the clutch is good. When I bought the car I had the money for a clutch replacement in my fighting fund, and still do. My question is, (and I have tried the forum search) . How do you know when the clutch is on the way out? Does it slip? Do you get a clunk, and there is nothing there? Or can you not select a gear? Or does the pedal do nothing? Just interested to know is all.

Husky and Starch?

Not a bad race I suppose. But the Americanisation of F1 is obviously now in full swing. I don't know whether to laugh or cry. I imagine that next year, the drivers on the podium at Las Vegas will walk on wearing Roman Centurions helmets. Gerri and Chrissy are obviously lapping it up. But the long and short of it is that the American owners/viewers/fans(?) will only tolerate not seeing the stars and stripes, and hearing the star spangled banner on the podium for so long. We can all look forward to money ' a la Stroll' flooding in.

I'm sure that somewhere on the back of the 'computer ' there must be a sticker that says "Not Calibrated. Indicator Only ."😉

"Ok, we've got the gearstick covered. Now let me introduce you to the Joystick. "

Pulled into local Shell garage today, computer said range 10 miles. I was sweating a bit, as never having run so low. Put £60 of the best in, @£1.79.9999999 and computer said range 235 miles. Did 9 miles cruising on an A road, then 7 miles blasting down a twisty B road. When I got back to base, computer said range 245 miles. My God, these Evoras are so fuel efficient, who cares about prices?

Matey, enter 'Windscreen Seal' as a search on here. About 10 results down you should see a post titled 'Exterior A Pillar'. Click on this and then 12 results down you should find a post from @Phil S1, dated July 24 2018.

I drive past PM occasionally, and noticed a month or two ago, that his former showroom was now a totally unrelated business. If this is the end of Paul Matty, then it is a sad day for the entire Lotus community.

If you delve/trawl through previous posts on this issue, you'll find out that to which I refereth. If you go on to MLOC's website, someone has put up a simple DIY fix for this. If I wasn't such a tech luddite, I'd post the link, but I'm sure you'll find it easily.

If I was a betting man, I'd wager, as has been said, that it's the double sided foam tape that secures the A-pillar trim to the windscreen starting to fail. If you open the window a bit, does it stop? Also, if you get to three figure speeds (on track ha! ha!) does it stop? If so, you have your answer.
