At Hilton & Moss, we have a long history and close relationship with Lotus. With over 25 years of selling, servicing and repairing all Lotus models, our skills, passion and knowledge of the marque combine to support our clients proactively with any issues that may arise.

If you've noticed paint bubbling or blistering on your Emira's doors, you're not alone and your 3-year paint warranty may be approaching its expiration date. Emira owners across Lotus clubs and online forums have been discussing widespread paint defects appearing on door panels, typically 12-18 months after production. The problem affects vehicles from 2022 onwards, regardless of colour or storage conditions, and can develop rapidly once it starts.

While the exact cause remains under investigation, Lotus admit this is a factory issue and can be rectified under your 3 year warranty agreement. With many of the UK’s Emiras approaching the 3 year mark, it is important this is completed before your warranty ends.

We are proud to help clients with any issues that arise on their Lotus Emira, supporting clients with their warranty claims, insuring the defects are replaced with genuine Lotus parts and rectifying any paint issues to ensure a seamless colour match for the affected areas.

Our state-of-the-art facilities enable us to support our clients throughout the entire process, from collection of the car to a complete assessment and diagnosis of the issues. We are also able to formulate a repair plan and carry out the completion of it inhouse.

Our skilled team has the experience and equipment to ensure seamless repairs that match your Emira's original finish perfectly. Additionally, you'll have the peace of mind knowing your vehicle is in the hands of Lotus specialists who understand the marque inside and out.
