Practical and not a bad price. For someone like me who only does 100-120 miles a week down the same easy route to work it would make a lot of sense.

Yes I was looking at this earlier on today. I can see that model doing well and the range between charges is far better than I thought it would be. Tempted about a trade in already Guy?

Not just yet.

This morning was funny. Parked it in the car park where I usually am. Lots of side-long glances as people look while pretending not to look.

Took me a few goes to centre it in the space mind, it's a good bit longer than the Focus, and I'm very glad of the parking sensors now as you really can't see where the boot ends. I'll get used to it.

I have that same problem, you may find the addition of a rear view camera advantageous also at a later date, see how you get on

Aye, I'm pondering that, as the Comand display can show video. It's a good few hundred quid though.

I don't like the look of the Model 3.

The S is great; looks a bit like a Mazda 6 - which makes sense as the same stylist was deployed. No bad thing either, the 6 is quite pleasant to look at.

Well worth booking a test drive even if you have no intention of buying. Tesla is quite happy with this.
