Yeah I’d looked at them on PCP but it was the added tax and insurance which put me off. Plus I didn’t want to be in another finance trap again.
That isn't bad, not dissimilar to a Polestar 4 on the used market. Hard to look past the Seal still for something a bit cheaper again, really tempted with it given the current pricing.I went on a PCP and it was surprisingly cheap! £1k down and £450 a month.

Also is it me or do Audi's only come in Greeeybluuurrrgreeeyblaaaaackk colours.
Hi - EV’s with space for 2x MTB in the boot, with the front wheels removed.
Anything with a flat space of 170cm’s, measured from the back of the front seat, to the boot edge , with the rear seats folded works great
So cars like:
- Tesla Model Y
- MG S6
- Polestar 4 SUV and Coupe
- BMW iX 3
- Volvo EX60
- Mercedes GLC
- Kia EV 5, EV6 and EV9
- Hyundai 5
- Skoda Enyaq
- MG IM6
- VW ID4, ID 7, Buzz
Basically, any mid size SUV and up

Hahahaha told you still enjoying mine. Make sure it gets the 3.11 software update which fixes some software issues.So... confession time.
After slating the Audi a few times I've only gone and put a deposit down on an A6 Avant
6 months old and was up for £37k, with another £2k from Audi finance. Was too good to miss.
What spec did you get? Strangely mine is worth more now that I paid for it.

Mine's the avant, so the P4 and Seal aren't really useful for me unfortunately. The new P4 SUV/estate looks good though. Colous are incredibly uninspiring, it's a bluey grey colour which isn't terrible tbf
Boggo basic e-tron Sport, I'm too cheapskate to pay extra for nice things. Cheapest 100kWh model was £150 a month more on finance, my time on the odd long journey isn't worth that
Fair enough the price of mine was good so I went with the 100 Performance Launch edition. The only other reason was I wanted the more powerful motor the 100 gets.Mine's the avant, so the P4 and Seal aren't really useful for me unfortunately. The new P4 SUV/estate looks good though.

Still make sure they do the software update as it fixes a somewhat daft issue with the boot loosing its height setting
This is perfect for us - my son will have his own screen to control his music and stream devices for video's on longer trips, with separate BT headphone audio if I don't like his choice of musicModern dashboardshopefully it's not as bad in reality
It also has a driver display, a HUD and the wheel has actual REAL buttons

looking at a polestar 4 this morning, as a crossover, wonder if it has the clearance to stand them up on fork clamp,
which makes it a lot easier than laying them, as I've just been doing for a hybrid trip into Cambridge later,
if they end up muddy there's no contest.

Standing up works way better agreed. My l405 Range Rover can’t take them standing up though. I’d be surprised if the polestar 4 suv is a taller opening.
I’m definitely going to go and have a look at the P3 and P4 polestars though. They look good.

He isn’t buying one so it doesn’t matter.
The PS4 doesn’t have the AP220 motor which keeps him aroused at night.
Any other sane person would take the wheels off and pile them in the back or use a bike carrier.
EVs usually have shallow rear boots as they have to accommodate the rear motor.

But but but
Nor is it stood forks up.
Pretty sure my Y could take that bike with the wheels on without issue.
A big 29er mountain bike? No chance but no ‘normal’ cars can either. It would easily go in with the wheels off though.
The typical EV shallow boot isn’t that shallow.
