    My Ioniq 6 Ultimate in Biophillic blue pearl with digital camera mirrors is on its side in a ditch somewhere according to the dealer. Ouch, I might be back on the hunt come January 1st. So my wish is that Kia become more realistic with the AP for the Kia EV6 GT-Line.

    Oh dear POPS. I wonder if it actually in a ditch or a novel exuse because it has been sold to a retail customer! The GT Line is more akin to the Ioniq premium and doesn’t have heatpump as standard!

    I’m not backward in speaking my mind when needed keso. My first response to the dealership manager was “Is that sales speak for ‘we’ve just sold it to a private finance customer’ because we make more money on finance deals than Motability orders’ “? He denied it of course. I was then offered a curated silver ‘6’ with digital cam mirrors, that had “just come off the transporter that afternoon”. He said that his dealership would pay half (£500) towards the mirror if I agreed to change the order. That sounded reasonable until I realised when I went into see it that it was actually the same “new car” that I had test driven days earlier. (the clear plastic protective coverings had been ripped off and were still in the same place that the sales person stuffed them and the delivery sticker on the side window had the same serial number as I had photographed at the time). So it was more than a bit annoying that I had been given totally ‘wrong info’. At that point I cancelled my order.
