    Winter Tires - CAUTION: DON'T MAKE THIS MISTAKE

    Hi, yes I am using 41psi on the rear tyre. Just don't mount the 155 on the original alloy wheel if it was a 175 because its the wrong fit. It could come of the rim.

    Lots of problems

    Hi, a quick update. I decided that a swap was going to be almost impossible to do due to a total lack of stock of used i3 Rexs in the UK. There were a few fully loaded and a few poverty spec cars available, but nothing in the middle and at the right price. So I got the car back and prayed...

    Lots of problems

    Hi, I've had my i3 just over two weeks now, and things are very upsetting. First was its 130 mile journey home from the dealer. It wouldn't charge at Ecotricity and then things got a bit worse when the engine management light came on. So it was taken off on the flatbed and a BMW 330 M sport...
