I'm sure the Swift deal will be good for some but with 80bhp and 0-60 in 12 seconds it's too slow these days I feel.
Yeah well it's a very good car for city drivers or even someone new to drivingI got my sister a Fiat 500 e for her first car which does 0-60 in 8.5seconds and that feels about right for city driving. Nice and nippy. And its easy to park. The Swift is bulbous.
Yaris hybrid is a much better option too, one of my colleagues just got one for her first car, I drove it partly back from the showroom and I found it perfectly OK. I think its around 10 seconds.
And I have had experience of slow cars. I spent 2 years driving a Polo with only 59bhp and took nearly 16 seconds to get to 60. Never again…

My Seat Mii Electric is 0-60 in 11.9 sec and is perfectly fine for my 50 mile daily commute for the past 3 years
Yes, but that’s an EV, so will have a pleasing amount of zip from standstill to about 30 and then tail off to a slower pace, whereas the Suzuki is a mild hybrid meaning it’s just a weedy 48V battery stuck to a naturally aspirated engine. It will be more revvy and have a more linear power band but with the expense of having only 83 ft/lb (112Nm) of torque. The Suzuki would feel, and be, slower around town than the Mii.I didn’t click the deal, but if it’s an Auto, it’s also a CVT. I think I’d rather shoot myself than sign a contract to be locked into driving a CVT Swift around.

It's actually a 12v battery and I'm in no particular hurry. Each to their own eh. I've had slower cars before and been driving them in and out of London for 18 years. It's really not a problem for me and probably many othersI didn’t click the deal, but if it’s an Auto, it’s also a CVT.

You know the way this works... minimum threshold for a "good" car is 200bhp/tonne Thank you, It was me , I counted this out as it is quite slow and having driven a non turbo car before they are asthmatic. Will go for the new MG3+ hybrid seems to tick the right boxes across the small hatchbacks

Thank you also just took a look on AA. It is definately a lower spec than the cooper S would be worth seeing what other offers appear in May as these are all stock vehicles

AA leasing have the 5 door classic premium in stock for £280 on the same terms so probably a better bet in terms of delivery

If Cooper S was a Classic trim it would be broadly the same spec, just faster. I'm not saying I know any more than you, but are you saying you expect an influx of new 5-dr ones? I just assumed Plant Oxford was tooled up for the F66 now so that was it for the old F55/56/57 generation and I jumped to the conclusion there would then be a bit of a barren spell while they pre-ordered vehicles out. rich_miller7 said:
These new Tesla deals mentioned in last week’s thread which were meant to be released on Monday never materialised unless I missed them?
AFAIK deals are the same as previously. Nothing good on the Model 3 (yet). And £399/£499/£599 inc VAT for the Model Y on a 9+35 for 10k per year. V 02 said:

I was going to pull the trigger and get one for my daughter until I saw the insurance group was 28. Unsure why it would be so high

Some decent rates for the Model 3 are overdue. Tesla have been milking those who wanted a 'highland' updated Model 3 for the last few months. But are the Model Y rates going down?
no they were not included. Even if they have the same headline rentals, they will vary depending on term and mileage. Some decent rates for the Model 3 are overdue. Tesla have been milking those who wanted a 'highland' updated Model 3 for the last few months. But are the Model Y rates going down?

I'm in the market for a Y. Is it likely that a broker could undercut Tesla directly? e.g Y RWD £399 on 9+35 (no broker fee). Whats the incentive to use a broker?Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD 4dr Auto
