‘Just add lightness, Sir?’ ‘Nah, add sales instead!’ - short review of the Lotus Emira i4 🇬🇧

As some of you are probably aware in the meantime I am looking for a fun car to complement the more practical, family hauling machinery (not boring by any stretch of imagination but different). The Renault Alpine A110GT has already passed the test (see he

You should, if "feelsome" driving is a priority

My Evora S, from the 1st series, is now in continuous every-day-use since 2010. There were some niggles sorted at the beginning under warranty, but since then it was just an annual service (and one "rebushing" of the suspensions). After 220'000 km it is s

For M2 money ..

.. you can easily buy a real sportscar aka the Alpine A110 It's sad to see these M cars have grown so heavy, the extra weight has been compensated with delirious amounts of horsepower. These cars are complete contradictions to progress, why ? More traffic

I've done all the service on my car since new except replacing the fuel tank as a safety recall. That includes new brake rotors, front drive shafts, window motors, headlight motors, shift cables, fuel injectors, ignition coils, redying seats, oil changes,

I am told by mechanics and automotive technicians...

I am told by mechanics and automotive technicians at LOTUS dealerships that the Elise and Exige are terrible cars to work on, have little to no safety features, and were not designed with accident safety nor maintenance accessibility in mind. The automoti

Average speed.

This past week I drove around 500 km in and around my rainy village, traffic is totally ridiculous and I averaged around 33 km/h. I think some 100 of those 500 km were driven on highways. A good friend of mine also complains about this 'phenomenon' and th

I’d really like to see automakers
