    Answers not in any particular order –

    premium or ultimate – for me no brainier – at the time – end of October 2021 the ultimate was £999 and premium – I think £600.

    The additional tech and cosmetic changes I considered worth it

    – which were

    sunroof – to let heat out – ventilated and electrically powered front seats  – HUD and additional smart lane control etc.

    I believe they are still the best EV choice on Motability – as long as it is large enough – it has a small boot – cramped rear seats – there is plenty of room at the front and very comfortable.
    I am retired as is my wife so most of the time more than enough room – we have 8 grandchildren and 3 of them can fit in the back as they are as yet not full grown.
    Handling – range and acceleration are good – safety tech excellent.

    Waiting time I believe ranges from 6 a – 10 months – you will need to check this – certain trims and colours maybe quicker than others – certainly you need to drive the car and check out back seats and boot against your needs.

    Lastly I ordered the car end of October  – which was officially comfirmed by Motability 2nd week December – the dealer maybe happy to put your order in early before your official Motability date because of the long wait time.

    It is a lovely car  – good luck ??
