I need a little runaround that’s easy to navigate around the narrow lanes where I live. Original budget started low and somehow I’ve ended up looking at up to £20k.

So the electric mini level 3 is within budget. I’ve always loved minis - had a few over the years asa a fun runaround and it usually ends up being the car I use the most.

I’m considering one of the above, an i3 or a Cooper S. I like the look of the electric mini as it has all the options I’d want (except heated screens which apparently none of the newer cars have) but I’m concerned about the range if these numbers are true…

Thanks for the input folks. I’m totally undecided. I like the idea of the electric mini, but I think I will almost certainly have range anxiety and will want to plug it in every time I’ve used it. Maybe other feel the same and hence them being considerable more affordable second hand than their ICE siblings.
