I should add, my 2020 Elise is the only one of the ten I’ve owned over the years that I’ve not changed the exhaust. It obviously depends what you want from the car, but given mine has been used for touring Europe as much as anything else I think Lotus got it spot on. The thing about the RRR intake is the noise is only there when you feel like a more “spirited” drive otherwise you would never know and the exhaust noise is just right. All subjective and a matter of what your looking for.

It’s not going to be sucking in engine bay hot air at any point, the cone sits above the air intake so even at low speeds your going to get intake air not engine. I don’t know about their 5bhp increase claims, Hurricane claim the same for their induction kit but unless your doing before and after rolling road comparisons then who knows. I’m very happy with the product and if you want an increase in SC sound then you won’t be disappointed.

RRR intake knocks the TRD into a cocked hat, I had the TRD and chopped it for the RRR and they really are chalk and cheese if you want a bit of whine. Mines been on a few years now and never had an issues. Cleaned annually and all good, worth the extra ££’s imho.

Just to say a huge thank you to all of those involved in organising this years Litp. We could only join the superb Sunday run this year but I’m sure those who were able to enjoy all three days must have had an equally fabulous time. I can only imagine just how much time and effort it takes to put such an event on the Lotus calendar, thanks for your efforts 👍👌🙏 Also thanks to the group 7a/b members, we might have been the smallest group on the road today, but it was a pleasure to enjoy the non stop route with you today…. See you all next year✌️

I’d suggest you avoid Google Maps, try a different GPX viewer?

Unless you’re leading a group you don’t need to navigate the route. Your group leader will drive the route and you follow, it sounds a bit strange but it works, just concentrate on your leader. Apologies if you are leading a group, if that’s the case I’m sure Ray or someone will sort it for you 👍

Just arrived! Fabulous as always, many thanks to all of those who were responsible for getting it sorted, printed and posted. Its always a highlight when it lands

Nice one Mark and very much appreciated 🙌

Nothing here yet Rich.

That’s a shame the paintwork looks to be in great condition. Option 1 in Bromsgrove have always had a very good reputation, they did some work on a previous Elise of mine and although not the cheapest the workmanship was superb. Some insurance companies are funny about not using their repairers but personally it’s something I would insist on with an Elise.

Charges:3:95 euro per month for the full package or 79 euro for a lifetime membership, although they often have discount weekends. Doubling back: it has the ability to create a circular route could be that is set? Not sure why it’s giving problems logging in. There’s a very big community so there is a huge library of routes if you don’t want to create your own. It’s worth spending a little time to understand how it works and the desktop version is far more intuitive than the phone version and you can convert your routes to pretty much any file format to use on various Sat nav’s/Apps etc

Not free by any stretch but very good 👍 I’ve created and driven thousands of miles using it in some of the most out of the way places in Europe and it hasn’t missed a beat. Probably overkill for what your proposing but as a route planner it’s superb.

I use MyRouteapp for route planning here and in Europe it does much of what you suggest in your post. Sharing location could get tricky in some of the areas I’ve travelled due to lack of any signal can be away from any sort of mobile signal for quite some time?
