Hi all, well I still haven’t taken delivery of my i3s yet due to Covid delays but it’s getting closer, I just want it now. The car will be charged at home 99% of the time and won’t do mega mileage but if I were to do a longer run I would like to be in the position of having everything in place...

Thanks

I will be getting my i3s in September. This may seem like a strange question but we will be going away in our motorhome and taking the car with us, although the standard sockets in the motorhome are rated at 13amp some campsites only hookup at 10 amps so I have to plan which sites we are going...

That’s great well done. This is what I am thinking the used market will soon start to drop as no one can go and view cars and now most of the main dealer have shut there are no more new orders so when they reopen in ? 3 months time they will be desperate for sales. I know this sounds bad but I...

Should I cancel my order? My new i3s has only been on order for a couple of weeks now and now that all the factories are closed and the dealers will be by the end of this week the delivery is likely to be extended to around 8 months. By then there are going to be lots of very cheap car’s around...

I’m sure when I get it I will get used to it, it’s a pity no one told Range Rover how to set it up but then I would advise no one to buy one any way it’s an £80,000 heap of rubbish. Hopefully when I get my first ev my wife will love it and follow?

Thanks guys as for how fast does the Smart crawl at it’s around 3 mph. I like the idea of changing the mode would equal less power. The other reason I like a car to crawl is pulling into a parking space, when you pull in and stop but then need to go another 30cm(12inch) it’s almost Impossible to...

Hi all I had a go in a Smart car today and the one thing that was great was when you took your foot of the break the car starts to crawl which is great in traffic, when I test drove the i3s when you took your foot off the brake it just sat there until you press the accelerator but then it was...

The 5 months is just a quote from the lease company. I decided to lease it because it’s a bit of a no brainer I work for the NHS and you can lease through them the monthly payment comes off your top line so you pay less tax and national insurance which basically means I get the car with metallic...

Hi and thanks I don’t think the build quality of the model 3 is brilliant, I do like the model S but this is going to be my first venture in to electric, plus my usual cars are either sports cars current one being a Lotus Elise of really funky cars like a Smart Fortwo. I think the i3 is a funky...

Hi all Well I’ve ordered my new i3s in red with black alloys, privacy glass, sun roof, sensors front and rear and to top it of Harmon Kardon sound system :D Only problem is here in the UK I’ve been told it’s probably going to be around 4 to 5 months delivery. I now need to look at my charge...

Hi all My usual cars have all been 2 seater soft tops but no one seams to make an electric one of those at to right price, so I’m thinking of having a change for a bit till they do and there are two cars in the running one is a Smart Fortwo cabrio and the other is an i3s I like either...
