i3 anyone?

[snipez999]

Anyone else going for a launch weekend gander or drive in one (16/17 Nov that is)? 
I'm down for a drive on 18th as it's available for a few hours as opposed to 10 mins round the block so next tyre kicker in line can have a go.
I may be interested in a commuting car, and the novelty value of things always appeals to the schoolboy part of me.

We're on the list.  Just to see what it's like, and for the same reason - a commuter car.

As both the wife and I do between 50 and 100 miles a day I will be looking seriously at the i3 in the future.

I8 looked a bit nicer in Park lane

Very expensive commuter car, you have to do a lot of more miles to reap the benefits.

Interesting how test drives will go as presumably you can't take it too far before it runs out

I like the idea but not the cost. Looked at twizzy and electric smart which also worked out quite expensive.

My office is 3 miles from home, station 12 and gatwick 20 so all possible in such a Vehicle.

All girlfriends in range as well?

Yeah that could be awkward for it to run out of puff whilst on the job.

Ps I thought I could leave an electric car at yours and use your electric to charge it up whilst I'm in London. Your wife could run me to the station/hotel room and back.

Like I said, novelty value plus it's a bit more manly (a bit) than a Prius.  Will look see anyway as alternative would be a 1 series - though I'd have to get the m135 which then makes it a second car not a commuter which either of us, or my elder kids should they visit, could drive without me biting nails and pacing up and down the hall.....
