I think supply will improve massively on EV’s this year, there seems to be plenty of stock around if you aren't stuck on a specific model. I imagine there will be a lot of cancelled orders too.

I hope so. Hopefully that not only opens up other options but also reduces the prices as supply will be better.

Keep up at the back.

I very nearly ordered one of these (the stock one) last year. Not sure how a doorless version would cope in the winter.

I did order one but it never materialised, I didn't chase it up as after I’d seen one in the flesh I wasn‘t as keen. Apparently they were absolutely hopeless during the cold spell last month, wouldn’t charge and would barely move even when charged. They should be about £80 not £8000 when you see how they are built.

It ain't half bad and...it's a MG.

The luddites at the DT won't be happy.

V2L has to be a consideration ...?

I think they really appreciate it when you share your wisdom with them.

Keep up the good work.

Not exactly a 'looker' is it.

I saw one yesterday from the most unflattering angle, believe it or not.

Was that angle 360°

UGLY.

Yeah it's not great. I'm not sure why so many EVs go for this mini SUV look.

I agree. Lots of second hand EVs as PCPs and leased cars come to an end. Tesla Model 3s in freefall (Model 3P down by about £112k in last 12 months!). I've kept an eye on second hand electric Minis; same thing. I was watch a Level 2 at a car supermarket - dropped by £5500 over the last 14 days AND now with a £500 deposit contribution.

This is prices adjusting after the silly prices of the last 18 months! Some cracking deals out there, and more to come I expect. For both new and used. My old Tesla is still for sale (the one with the horrid body kit!); now worth about £8k less than they gave me as a PX!! Some burnt fingers....

I'm starting to look after my battery a bit better now.
With a bit of luck , my (borrowed) M3 might be a bit of a bargain when the time comes.

I would also add that this price levelling is a good thing, making EVs more accessible in terms of price. Just a shame about cost of borrowing and the 'less than good' press that EVs have received in recent weeks!

Indeed. Buy it cheap; sell and pay a little extra for a Performance?!!!

Down by £112k? Are they paying you to have one now?
