For not much more you could go for the Tesla Model 3 SR+It growing on me. But I not paying over £40k
Seriously tempted. The model 3 has grown on me. I just don’t like the fact that there is no dealer to order through. All seems online only. Plus it’s in the luxury car tax band.For not much more you could go for the Tesla Model 3 SR+
Tesla have dealers. Just not as many as other car manufacturers.Seriously tempted. The model 3 has grown on me. I just don’t like the fact that there is no dealer to order through. All seems online only. Plus it’s in the luxury car tax band.
From the prices I am seeing, the iD3 1st Edition won' be cheap at all.Habit I suppose
But Now the price has gone up
Presuming ID 3 will come in close to 40k
Looks very nice however are Volkswagen building them in that colour combination, it looks like the Max 1st Edition which the UK isn't getting!
You could wait until the order books open for normal production cars, that way you could go for the biggest battery and every option ...... but then I think the price will end up being a cool £50k.If there is no Max I will have to decide as I wanted max. I still have hope....
I hate to say it but I knew this would happen in terms of high pricing.. time to order that Tesla folks!The PCP deals are the only positive from that lot. €40k minimum for what is a very basic spec, small car is a joke. €2k more would get you (after a bit of a wait) an e-Niro. Much bigger, better range, nicer finish and far higher spec. OK its a Kia, but still. Must do better VW.
The leaf isn’t cheap either. Around £30k too.
Don’t quote me. Just stuff I read on Facebook from pre bookers.
Some good news. If your a pre booker and don’t want the first edition you can move it to series release and be first in the q for them. And I don’t think big battery. 77 KWh is out till 2021.
I’m so close to pulling the trigger on a Tesla it hurts..!
For that price, I would go with a Model 3 for a little more, or the BMW i3So...Uk price is £36k after grant on the 1st Edition. We only get one option. The Plus.
No heat pump. Maybe to keep it under 40k before grant. Colour option is £600. The granny cable is an optional purchase?
There’s more...
Series release may be November. I don't believe this but it’s what I’ve read. The big battery will only take 4 passengers. No centre seat belt. This is due to the weight of the car going over industry spec for small cars with 5 adults and the big battery.
This also means that there is no panoramic roof option with big battery as pano roof adds weight.
So many deal breakers for me.
Be it the First edition or series release.
