  5. You're already in one https://forums.thelotusforums.com/forum/326-uk-legs-lotus-enthusiast-group-scotland/
  6. Our group of Scottish members is here, I'm sure they'd love a gathering https://forums.thelotusforums.com/forum/326-uk-legs-lotus-enthusiast-group-scotland/
  7. With those financials, there shouldn't be a single public charger in the UK. I guess that's why they're usually installed with more than 1 charger at each location.
  8. Starmer has told us that we 'Stand With Isreal'. Personally, I think we'd best of leave out of it. If Hamas strike back at us, I believe that means they've had a pop at the whole of NATO and that doesn't end well.

The Emira V6 also hosts a number of design features such as headlining, A-Pillars and Cantrail in black technical fabric and new branding. Naming The naming of the vehicles stems from Lotus’s rich history. The Emira Turbo reflects not only the 2-litre turbocharged in-line four-cylinder engine but when the turbo was first implemented in 1980 with the Turbo Esprit, which was one of the early production sports cars to use this technology. Further, the Emira Turbo SE harks back to when SE was originally an optional ‘Special Equipment’ package, first introduced on the Type 14 Elite. It was also used with the Type 26 Elan, Elan SE Turbo, Lotus Cortina and the Elan S3, Elan S4 and Plus 2. In addition, Lotus has historically used the SE variant to identify higher output and more standard equipment are the Esprit Turbo SE, Excel SE, Elan SE and the Europa SE. Hence to stay true to the Lotus ‘SE’ brand, the Emira Turbo SE adopts ‘SE’ to reflect the higher output and increased levels of equipment.
