  1. Really nice specimen… hope prices will hold once I’ll be ready to sell mine, in a couple of years 🙂
  2. Guess he didn't follow through....
  3. Guess we’ll cross paths one day
  4. Thanks for your reply. So there are different batteries for the 430 Cup ? To be honest no, I'm not sure what batttery I'm using. I'll have to check with the dealer then... Thanks again.
  5. Hello chaps haven't driven my 430 in a while and the battery is dead. I have a CTEK battery tender that I normally use for my Ferrari Challenge Stradale. Can I also use it for the Lotus ? I remember reading that Lotus is using some f**up light batteries that cannot use the normal CTEK chargers. Is that right ? Thanks in advance.
  6. Hello guys today I was going to drive my 430 to work and decided to have a quick look at the engine by and noticed the coolant tank was empty (I'm referring to the small tank holding pink liquid in the left-hand side of the engine bay). I could also see some traces of coolant in the engine. I'm afraid there must have been a leak or something. What kind of coolant should I buy ? Can anyone recommend one ? Thanks in advance!
  7. I like the wheels...nice!
  8. So I somehow removed the front latch and put it back again. Then as I was on the motorway, I noticed it was flapping, so I stopped and secured it properly. After that, I can again lock the car using the remote. Was my first proper motorway trip on the Exige, approx 300km each way. Was really really hard not to drive below 150km/h the whole time... the car just invites you to push and push... need to be careful else my driving license will disappear very quickly... Thanks again for your help, that was super helpful.
  9. Sorry.. been trying to open the front latch for a while with no success. I see there's a sort of black lever...is that the lever you are referring to ? Do I just need to push it in ? Is there a picture of it anywhere ? Sorry if it sounds a bit stupid. Will be driving to Milan tonight for dinner and not to happy to leave it unlocked for hours while it's parked somewhere 😕
  10. Sorry I read a few comments about the front hatch. How do you even open it ? Thanks
  11. I have never even tried to open the front hatch. I suppose I'll need to tell the dealer when it will be time for the yearly service.
  12. Thanks. It does this religiously anytime I try to lock it. Also, I think I noticed most times the car self locks. I now always leave it unlocked, but I think most times I find it locked a few hours later or the day after. Is that possible ? Thanks
