Discounted stock Emiras...

Significantly higher miles on the AT cars.

Either way, lots of pressure on the Emira unfortunately

[Honeywell]

Hi spec 911 911.2's now retailing at £65k with 20,000 miles and still warrantiable if you service at OPC.

Absolutely tons on AT at the moment with about 8 a day being added. The £60k toy car market is a really hard place to be at the moment.

Always non OPC cars. Always mid £60’s Always multi owner. Where’s the the sub 15k miles, 1 owner cab,
Post 2016, with some spec and under £60k?

Matter of time now, dealers are still in denial.

Hope I’m not going too far OTby asking,but what’s people’s thoughts on values of the last Evoras( lightweight versions like GT410/430 etc against the Emira,as they seem pretty strong still ?

They didn’t make many and they aren’t making anymore which is good. But I can’t see many people choosing any Evora over an Emira when both are £60k ish.
Post 17 Elises were low mid £30’s in 2018.
Many are still on sale for more than that 5 years later. Again, limited supply but limited demand as well.

While not that many will choose an oldish Evora over a near new Emira, given there are so few Evora's on the market, I suspect enough will keep Evora prices high. The more focused Evoras offer something current Emiras don't.

That was kind of how I was thinking,I assume they’ll have to bring out a “lightweight” Emira eventually though.
I’m looking at a GT410 Sport as a possible replacement for my current Noble M400 after 16 years ownership,which has given me fantastic,depreciation defying all ,trouble free motoring.

[LuckyThirteen]

Why switch then? Is it just boredom?

I could never get bored with a Noble!

[Spindoctor]

Agreed. So much so that I bought an Exige but still have the Noble.

Has anyone not owned that car?

[P155flaps]

Lotus aren't helping themselves here with their crap customer service and inability to fix issues.

I had a deposit and cancelled. Was going to hold out to buy around xmas / Jan in low 60s. But all the same old issues (ex evora and exige owner) have meant me deciding not touching them for for the forseeable.

Ive gone back to Porsche. Been tracking a car down from £92k into the 70s and I have just got a MY 2022 PDK GT4 that In Dec 2021 same car was flipped new in Dec 2021 for £114k (list £98k)

Paid in the higher end of 70s but that includes rest of new car warranty, extended OPC warranty until 2027, £18k options and a fresh OPC service. May have dived in a bit too soon but looking at same cars at opc (in the 90s still) don't think ill take a bath.

Emiras I wouldnt want to own one out of warranty and next year first cars will have 18 months left. No ta!

[highway]

But at mid £50’s? What a great buy it will be!

Yep if they sort the worse than normal electrical issues
Cold start stalling
Random not starting
Heater / aircon failing etc

Etc then yep with seats swapped out and a way to up rev limit I’ll be in for sure!

[Sukh13]

This is the second time I've heard of a rev limit complaint.

What's the issue?

Its limited to 6800 and on my test drive it felt strangled, noticed the loss of the few hundred RPM over my old exige and evora(s)

Wow, have I missed this. Does the Emira not have a 'Sport button that releases an extra few rpm like the Evora 410.
Id say its essential on my 410 when I want to open it up.
