Can't wait to hear the sweet, sweet purr of redline! Time to load up some mellow tunes and take the girl for some nice country drives. 1000 miles here we come.
Congratulations Sam! what an achievement and a great Vid. Be great to see you link up with Matty Jones to show him this beast which he would appreciate more than most and hit a session on his new skate park?
Congrats! I noticed the orange indicators on the suction cup were showing on two of em, I was having anxiety as a fellow seasucker owner that the bike was going to fall lol
This was one of the most important cars at Goodwood. There were special ones, but Lotus built an achievable car. It's like a Corvette but Lotus made it.
I considered a corvette, but to me the Lotus is far nicer looking and available with a manual, and priced competitively. Also, I’ve owned a Z06 Corvette and was not impressed with build quality. Also I’ve always wanted a Lotus…but found the Elise’s to cramped for my build.
Clicked on for the Lotus content, as I've really no idea who Sam Reynolds is and my cycling consists of a gentle trip to the shops if the weather is good. However the video footage of what you were doing on the cycle track was amazing.
I'd forgotten about the Goodwood deposit! Love Lotus and not just cause they're local. Seen a Porsche bomb about the bypass next to where I walk the dogs recently in a similar shade of blue and looking mighty fine. Nice to see a factory tour & laps of the test track - it looked like your drone skills were struggling to keep up with it's acceleration at times! Glad you managed to nip down the A11 and squeeze in a quick trip to Phoenix Cycleworks before closing, as in the few videos Sam Pilgrim's done down there it's come on in leaps & bounds in recent months. Handy link to it in your 'mentioned places' section of your description and from the satellite map that opens up, it's clear they've got a lot more space to play with on both sides of the A14. Looking forward to your return there for a fuller session...
Probably one of my favourite edits this one, cars and bikes what more do we need? Let’s have a garage tour tho in an upcoming one 👍🏼 The customer service from Lotus seemed top notch too, I mean yeah you’re spending top dollar but that looked sick!!
I saw the same colour Lotus, same wheels, today on my way to Swinley forest.. you weren't driving near Bracknell today were you Sam? If so looked even nicer in real life!!
I work here! And ive more than likely helped build this exact car, so gassed, second youtube legend that i watch whos brought an emira from hethel, damn i wish i was on dayshift, id of had to of risked my job to come say hi to ya n shake hands😅
@@SamReynolds26 keep doing this well sir!, congratulations on ur investment aswell, im proud to have been apart of it😊 this is definately got to be the best video on youtube for me rn
And once again Lotus creates a gorgeous super car for a third of the price of the big boys. Did you opt for the V4 or the V6? I'd definitely do the 6 myself. Verdant Green too--best green I've seen on a car in a long time.
Hey Sam, guess it's time for a nice LONG road trip, in that nice new Lotus. Break it in doing nice long highway miles, not stop and go traffic. Any content you put out is always fun and entertaining but I'm hoping for videos and your opinions on this gorgeous car. #savethemanual
Congratulations on the new car! I’ve got one on order in the US and I use a Komodo sea sucker, you think the rear glass alone is strong enough to hold the Komodo and a bike?
Hmm possibly, I have been thinking about it, because the roof is actually too flexy to have the bike on the roof really, so front windscreen could be best for the sea sucker. I’ll try a few options!
how is the SeaSucker working for ya? im wondering if i can bring my mountain bike around in my Emira as well. also there sure is a lotta room behind the seats maybe if I take both tires off and have no passenger hmm
I’ve found the sea sucker works well but better if you stick it on the windscreen rather than the roof! The roof is a bit flexy and windscreen is solid
@@SamReynolds26 Looking to get this same set-up, can you share how easy it is to fit the front wheel inside the Emira? Do you have to compromise on seat position to get it to fit behind?
@@SamReynolds26 i totally agree! Although, I have seen the blue one only. That would be my choice too since all my cars have been blue too. But I still wonder how the other colours look like in real life!
Nice whip! On another note... As an old DnB head from way back. I always appreciate Sam sprinkling a bit of DnB into his content.
Haha it’s just too good though hey
Same as that.
For sure
Hahaha, likewise, DNB til I die ......... Love some jungle with MTB!!
Thats honestly one of my fav bits about Sams videos... Old DnB head here from New York!
Awesome, very sporting of Lotus to let you film and get some sweet drone shots, cool company.
Very cool!
The blue with the black wheels and yellow calipers...perfect.
I hope you have many more happy moments ahead of you and I'm sure you will in life how you can.
A man of taste.
Congratulations Sam, unreal spec!
Thanks! I’m so happy with it!
Great to see you went for the manual / V6.
Yeah it’s awesome, I’m interested to see how the i4 is though!
Wow congratulations 🎊💙💙💙
Thanks! 🙏🏼
Awesome mate, can't wait to see it in the flesh! Keep it on the black stuff 😉
Haha fingers crossed🤞 I’ll keep the FULL sends for the bike 😅
Well impressive bike ridding.
Nice shade of blue chap 👍🔥
Thanks 👍
Can't wait to hear the sweet, sweet purr of redline! Time to load up some mellow tunes and take the girl for some nice country drives. 1000 miles here we come.
Haha exactly! It’s a bit of a tease so far!
Congratulations Sam! what an achievement and a great Vid. Be great to see you link up with Matty Jones to show him this beast which he would appreciate more than most and hit a session on his new skate park?
That sounds like a good idea! Thanks 🙏🏼
EXCELENTE, 🤘🤘VIDEOS COMO ESTOS SON LOS MEJORES
Congrats Sam! What a great day that must've been. Enjoy the ride. Also cool that you got to ride the test track with Varys from GoT driving.
Great spec, i should choose exactly the same one. Congratz
Up my neck of the woods. Wicked car. Keep up the quality content
Nice color blue. Reminds me a lil of my old GSXR 750 racebike.
Congratulations Sam! Great spec choice too 🤌
Cheers!
Congrats! I noticed the orange indicators on the suction cup were showing on two of em, I was having anxiety as a fellow seasucker owner that the bike was going to fall lol
Haha yeah, didn’t want to do them too tight before experimenting a bit with it! I think on the glass is actually a better option

Cheers! Hope you enjoyed the little bit of biking we squeezed in!
@@SamReynolds26 Absolutely!

I'd love to see the Lotus on the track. congrats
As soon as it’s run in we will do some track days for sure!
Congratulations Sam definitely up for seeing some more emira stuff very interested in this car one of the best lotus have done I think.
What a day! 👊😎🤟
Congrats on the new car! It's awesome!
Thanks!
How did you end up transporting the bike’s front wheel?
Stoked for u
Thanks!
Probably one of my favourite edits this one, cars and bikes what more do we need?
Let’s have a garage tour tho in an upcoming one 👍🏼
The customer service from Lotus seemed top notch too, I mean yeah you’re spending top dollar but that looked sick!!
Sick car, I luv that it's stick shift instead of the Padle shift
Yeah man so much more fun!
Nice wheels,the car ain't to shabby aswell 😉
Always love these vids
The dream! Congrats man! :)
Cheers bud
You deserve it
Well done on the car mate

Living the dream dude! Yeh car stuff is always cool too. Maybe see how good riding is for the mental / coordination side of track driving?
Wow nice,
Nice car an nice bikes🙏
nice edit dude, that car awesome. congrats, well deserved you guys work hard.
Thanks man!
Sam the tunes you put in your videos are fucking bangers! love drum and bass
I saw the same colour Lotus, same wheels, today on my way to Swinley forest.. you weren't driving near Bracknell today were you Sam? If so looked even nicer in real life!!
Your face on track Sam 🤣🤣🤣
Love it! Stoked for you man, defo up for some Lotus content 😁
Keep up the awesome work guys 🤘🏼

Aw shame man! Next time! Hopefully I can come back again for something! It’s rad there
@@SamReynolds26 keep doing this well sir!, congratulations on ur investment aswell, im proud to have been apart of it😊 this is definately got to be the best video on youtube for me rn
Pretty sure a nice trip to Wales and back will shred a fair few miles off the run in 😉😉
You’re right!
Congrats on the new whip Sam 🔥🔥
Thanks!
Looks sick!

This vid was so good Sam, I love the new Lotus and you and Matt should do collab again✌🏻
we definitely will soon!
Thanks for the great content. Congrats on Emira! How did you do the bike rack?
Thanks! It’s called a sea sucker bike rack it’s great

me too!
Looks like it was spec'd exactly like I would Inc colour and black pack .Alacantra interior?
Didn't you get C,O one lol 😆 after all the filming and digging trails nice one 👍
Biking looks more fun than Emira!
Biking is always the best
Did you go for sports or touring?
Sports, I wasn’t sure at first but love it now
I wish i have that bike lotus 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Is this a touring or sport version?
sport
nice
Cool car but...nevermind. no, no, I'm gonna say it, isn't it a tad impractical? And yes I'm jealous of course.
I mean yes, it certainly can’t replace the van 😂 good weekend car though!
You should have waited for the 4 cylinder AMG motor
I didn’t want that
How the hell did you pay for that?! Is RUclips really paying that well?
RUclips might have paid for the wheels 😂 mainly sponsor and prize money accumulated and invested over the last 12 years
@@SamReynolds26 oh awesome, thanks for actually replying!
Comedians say the moment you have a baby you'll have to give up your sports car for a minivan. I guess its the complete opposite for Sam. 🤔🤣
Haha luckily the order was in just before the baby! 😂
Yoo
bonus of the vid is I finally found waldo
keep away from Surrey & West Sussex Potholes and don't take to S4P
Haha definitely won’t go to s4p! And the potholes around here are like a game to try and avoid them at the moment!
너무 작아
Happy for you mate. I am still waiting for the base edition to see if I will get one or not. Blue is for sure my choice too🤩
Thanks man, blue looks awesome in real life! After seeing every colour combo going at the factory it’s still my choice!
@@SamReynolds26 i totally agree! Although, I have seen the blue one only. That would be my choice too since all my cars have been blue too. But I still wonder how the other colours look like in real life!
Apparently youtube is paying some good money ay!!! nice one Samuel :)
I think RUclips might pay for the wheels to be honest but not much more 😂
Congrats mate! Looked like a perfect day. Looking forward to my own delivery day. - @v6emira 😉
Thanks Alex! Look forward to seeing yours too, hope it’s not too long!
