Really excited about the proposition of running an electric car, especially at this reduced cost. smile
Welcome to the club, once you have owned one you wouldnt want to go back to combustion.

The main reason the E-Tron has won is purely down to cost as well. Its costing £308 p/m Inc VAT, Fully Maintained, Insurance for 5 people, No Deposit and including a Pod Point installed at our house FOC.
The BIK is a ridiculous give-away to the wealthy when everyone else is stuck with just the PICG. For 300/month you can get a Zoe or Leaf 40 and they won't even throw in the car mats.

Not sure I quite follow your comment. This deal is through my wives NHS salary sacrifice scheme, and the BIK being 0% for electric cars is the only reason we could afford this car.

I myself, even as a business owner can’t get access to any deals near to this. What this has to do with the “wealthy” having an advantage is beyond me.
