This was always gonna happen anyway.
Standard. With them on I'm invincible!
Bring a helmet Sash!
Hotel for me. Does Travelodge count as posh?
Do the hotel lot just grab a shared cab to and fro? I'm happy driving and not drinking...but my passenger count is a bit limited.
Standard wheels for the S, they're really skinny, 175/55/20 fronts and 195/50/20 at the back.
The non S gets 155/70/19 all round, they're like motorcycle tyres 🤣
Thin wheels for aerodynamics, and large diameter rim to maximise contact patch of thin tyre.
Yeah that's all covered too thankfully.
Had an early morning run out in it today, met a couple friends, and opened their eyes. Around my two favourite roundabouts neither could keep up 🤣
It's nuts.
This is my exact experience as a buyer...and why I cancelled the order and went with what I could get right now.
Smart or e-Up! is pretty much your lot.
This is another factor in me not wanting to wait for the Mini. As it is I have 3 months of 'risk' BIK tax wise at the end of my...
Work chargers aren't an issue, even if we ALL topped up to full each day on arrival, apart from the hassle of having to play musical charging leads throughout the day, our 66kWh capacity over 12 hours is plenty. It helps that I'm the charge point admin/controller too ;)
As for trackdays, the...
There may well be a master bedroom mattress requirement before the summer's out. Depends on the wife's willingness to yield.
At that level of mileage you'd be at the lower end of what's available to make it work. For the 7 people I have salary sacrificing, the further they live from work, the...
Just the two at the rear. The pokey versions of EVs tend to have the additional motors. Annoyingly it's pi**ing down today but I'm working from home...I'll find a reason to get out at lunch though to see how it behaves.
Yeah because this is a scheme I constructed, ALL the savings benefit the...
Yer but I now have a light blue Cayman, a medium blue C-Max, a dark blue i3, and a black 107.
If they had one in stock and available, I'd have had a red one, no question.
My original choice until I saw that the one at the end of my road I kept hearing was that exact colour.
Also not a huge fan of the blue highlights but not enough to say no.
I could manage with he original 22kWh battery version of this with just a 70 mile range. It would effectively start every day with a range of 70 miles.
When I decided the Mini was not happening I did consider everything including the E, but too heavy, none in stock, and versus the i3 no real...
I'm happy to share here Ollie, the company is paying the going rate for a business lease as shown on Leaseloco;
With VAT as a consumer you'd be paying £580 per month for what I have. The fact that I'm only paying £195 from may pay packet is mostly down to Boris, and also a £150 employer...
It's finally EV time. Is this the future? I'm not convinced there won't eventually be something better but to be honest I'm really not that bothered, the ONLY reason I have this thing is because FREE CAR!
Well, not entirely free, through a salary sacrifice scheme I lose £195 of net pay per...
So my corporate day today didn't happen. Got to the gate, he busts out the passes, nope not valid. Stupid bloody mix up with horse race course membership reciprocal tickets. Grrrr.
Walk of shame back to the car 🤣
£18,500 is a ridiculous claim! There's no way on earth that will be less than £20k 🤣
An e-Up! is £24k before the government incentive which, if still around, is disappearing fast.
You can't pay employees or supplier invoices or bank interest with your stock of kit car parts unfortunately.
They may well have been trading profitably, but without working capital the blood just doesn't flow.
