I was told that the A B C D A E for the first 6 years repeats but on the 2nd time around (at 12 yrs) the F service eplaces the E.

Had any more info on yours since locking the configuration in?

I think a few folk who have had this are reaching out to find out how much earlier this may result in. Somebody else who has their car now said his was 56 weeks from Config to Checkout. Lots of speculating. Maybe you’ll get a similar email too. All I know for sure is First Edition V6 Manual, the rest is still to be decided. Currently thinking Blue or Yellow and pretty sure sports suspension but I’ve looked in the website configurator loads .. with full black pack, just lower black pack, almost every time I look I come up with a new mix!

Yep, the email links to it, you enter the same email as used to place the reservation and then you're sent a one time code to get in. Haven't done it yet as mulling over what to do - may stick with Q3 2024 as gives me more time to sort out what I'm doing.

late October 22

Had an email today - inviting me to configure. "If you would like to be driving an Emira earlier than you’re currently expecting, we are able to offer an opportunity to improve your current production estimate. To seize the opportunity and progress your reservation, you will need to confirm your Emira configuration in My Lotus before 12pm 29 March 2023." Doesn't say how much earlier, my build is currently scheduled for Q3 2024. I'm guessing with news that the US cars have slipped they have production slots to supply more UK cars, so are inviting folk to configure early.

Never had any leaks when I had the hard-top on. With the soft-top fitted I get some water coming in through the window seal right at the front by the side mirrors. Drove a few hrs in the rain today and the fabric on the door cards around the door release and window switch is soaked through. Looking at the car from the outside it seems the windows don't go right up to the top of the seal when the soft top is on. Could this be the issue? Rob

Not shown in my Elise 240FE service book, which I find very odd. So if I got it right from the link the order for the first 12 years (assuming under 9k miles a year) is: A B C D A E A B C D A F then repeat

If you buy the Certificate of Provenance for your car from Lotus you will get quite a bit of info such as how many of that model were made for the UK, what build number your car is plus other miscellaneous info - for example my 240FE was one of only 2 in red and the only fully red (without the black pack).

My 240FE is exactly the same sometimes.
