The BEST FAST DEPRECIATING Sports Car With INSANE PERFORMANCE?! (Lotus Emira Review)

Показать описание
The Lotus Emira has already dropped significantly in price from a used perspective, given these were around £90k new, and can now be had under £70k! But is it actually any good? Is it even a real Lotus? I find out in this video!

I hope you enjoy!

Just got mine a few weeks ago. V6 with the manual and Touring suspension. As good as it looks in videos and photos, it looks even better in person. Interior is clean, pure styling but the leather interior is definitely nice. Nothing about it looks or feels cheap. It's not a lazy car. You don't just get in and immediately you're super. He's right in this review. You have to pay attention and drive it. It's not going to do everything for you, but if you are willing, it will work with you in a way that's just sublime. Once you get to know it, wow.

i have this exact car, bought it brand new just a few weeks ago, and you are absolutely correct, its outstanding to drive, and it looks great too! yes, it comes with a few little issues, but ive also owned £150, 000 cars with issues lol, they arent perfect, but they are in a league of their own when it comes to the driving experience

Top work bro, last saw one of your videos during lockdown, you were on around 4k subs. You disappeared off my feed for a while and now I come back to see you on 130k. Madness

Greatly appreciate you review this car 😊. Wish I can buy this as my next car but think a few years of depreciation is needed till its affordable

Absolutely fantastic review of a truly spectacular car. Your best review to date.

I want one, but as it's one of the last ICE Lotus are producing I can see them appreciating not depreciating in the future. Hope I'm wrong!

JB i honestly love your channel bro. I look forward to EVERY video with great anticipation.

I’ve been watching your channel, and have been subscribed for years now.

Honestly man your knowledge and insight on cars is second to none!!!

Sorry if I sound cringy or a mad crazy fan lol But it’s genuine respect!!

I’m a driving instructor and I suggest your channel to ALL my learners.

I urge them to watch and subscribe to your channel before they buy their first cars. As I tell them your videos let people know about insurance, price, performance, what to look out for with reliability and what are reported faults by owners etc etc etc.

I am currently saving like mad for a sports car as it is my absolute dream to own one before I’m too old and look like I’m having a mid life crisis lol.

I know you probably aren’t allowed to, but if you can, I would greatly appreciate advice on what you would recommend for an entry level sports car that is reasonably affordable?

I’m hoping (dreaming) of owning a lambo, ferrari or Mclaren one day.

But I’m thinking that maybe to start my ownership into a sports car that a porsche Cayman or something similar would be a safe bet, in terms of depreciation and sell on value??

If you would be so kind as to suggest what you would advise please 🙏🏻 As I really value your expertise!!

I would greatly appreciate it, and then some!!

If you can’t for legal reasons or showing favouritism towards certain manufacturers I totally understand.

No harm in asking I suppose lol

Thanks in advance 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

As an owner of a very similar spec, sport not touring, with a carbon kit from CT Carbon I agree with everything youve said,

695 miles and the recalls to be done:
Wiper motors
HVAC sensor (buried deep under everything at the front)
A pillar air bag restraints
Brake pads (crumbling apart)
Main screen dead after 25 miles
Rear indicator fault (wheel off and lining out to check the connector fitting
USB media input not working
SOS warning on
Engine light intermittent fault
Oil pipe to gearbox to be checked (maybe replaced)
Driver side carpet protector coming off
Seatbelts to be replaced
Various panels to be adjusted
Water cover under front 'bonnet' to be fitted to avoid water ingress

Design fault:
Rear boot pours water into the luggage area and on the engine when lifted after rain/washing

Love the car to drive but I've never owned a car that has had so many faults new.

WeBuyAnyCar wont touch it with all the faults. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Good job and video. Live in the U.S. and have one. Very fun car to drive and gets massive amounts of attention. Nothing else at this price comes close to looking as good. BMWs/Porsches have all become very sanitized in driving. Not this car.

Did the Hethel half day in one of these. Its great on a track. This video shows what its like on road as well, looks good! My only concern was whether its a bit wide for uk roads... Im torn between this, f type and Need to try them all i guess!

Waiting for the price to drop in the US on the used market. I love my F-Type but I'm ready for a new car.
