      Right, Here’s my poll.
      Looking for a wee simple A, B, C, D, E, plus additi0nal comments.

      The Kia EV6, especially in that White colour, comes in the GT Line.
      What I would like a guesstimate on is when you guys would predict, if ever at all, when the GT Line S will dance on to the scheme.

      There are more expensive cars on the scheme, and yet, it seems strange that Kia haven’t, as yet, offered us the chance to have the KIA EV6 GT Line S. RWD would be fine, although the AWD version, 0 – 60 in 5.0 seconds sounds juice, so now for the poll.

      Do you think the following will happen

      A – It will come on the scheme, if not this quarter, next!

      B – Will come on scheme near the end of the year.

      C – Next year

      D – Eventually, but don’t hold your breath.

      E – Absolutely no chance, even with 18 mins of injury time, and 3 VAR decisions, all wrong, cos humans make the decision

      Anyway good luck, and look forward to your comments…..

          I’m just coming on to the scheme, so can’t make an educated guess, but if it did come on I’d take one in a heartbeat! Had my test drive in a GT Line S and loved it from the high-up seating position to the sound system and all the other bell ‘n whistles.

            E, unfortunately, but I’d love to be proven wrong. It seems that some manufacturers or just certain cars never make it in the top trim, like most Nissans, but again they used to so who knows. I just feel that if they were going to add the S they would have already done so. Like others have mentioned the car I tested was an GT Line S AWD in white and it looked totally different different to GT Line and after test driving the S, I couldn’t bring myself to order  the GT. Line without all thee extras of the S. Also the ap was £7000 at the time!

              I would have expected it to be on the scheme by now, if they had any intention of putting it on.

              So its a “D”

                B – There is an update due by end of the year, like the one for the Ioniq 5..upgraded battery etc.  So if there is any stock of old models that need to be moved they may go on briefly.

                    David, who the hell knows, this is THE major problem with the scheme you don’t know what will be on the scheme from day to day never mind in the future.

                    I am not a fan of white cars but I saw a Kia EV6 in white a couple of weeks ago and it looked fantastic. I really like the car but I don’t think the wife could get in and out of it and that’s a real shame ?

                      Thanks for the replies.

                      We seem to have a quite a pessimistic view on here.  Appreciate the honesty.

                      I was hoping to drift off to sleep tonight, the thought of up and coming Kia EV6 GT Line S, soon to be in my possession.

                      I’m forever an optimist, and hope Jim right with his guess.

                      And Matt, we can live in hope.  Sounds like all your dreams, would be coming too, if they can just surprise us.

                       

                      Thanks for all the feedback.  It’s been a revelation.  Cheers.

                        Hey David, what happened to the Audi Q4?  Did you kick that into touch?

                          Hi PR

                          Yip, kicked it into touch.

                          Realised through hindsight at the end of last year, spending 100 of hours, studyingyears of historical data, dating back to 2017, that in any 3 year period since 2017, btc and eth have averaged 450% return over any 3 year period since then.

                           

                          On finding out this, and btc halving event in the next couple of weeks, I’ve been investing my money in this.  And have been since November.

                          So that’s why I cancelled the Audi.

                          So far no regrets.  And all ready fantastic returns, if only the last 6 months are to go by.

                          So with one eye on next year, and deciding Kia EV6 is now my preferred choice, and where, I had to save up before, that’s no longer going to be a problem.  Anytime in the future.

                          Audi Q4 a brilliant car, still a belter.  Just Kia stole my heart in the meantime.

                          Cheers.

                              Thanks PR.

                              I missed out in the whole apple takeoff in share price, back in the 2000’s.  At the time, instead of waxing lyrical to all my friends and family about the iPod classic, I should have with insight being investing in all things early retirement.

                              Promised that If I ever got that gut feeling again, then take advantage.  After hours of studying different time scales, I realised, no matter what the ups and downs of btc and eth may be, they only, ever go one way in any 3 year period, and that’s up the way.

                              Found out along the way, that Solana & Cardona are the next btc & eth.

                              So there my main ones, with btc and eth bringing up the rear.

                              I now share this information to family & friends, and then leave it up to them to go check the same historical data, and when they have done their own collating, then decide, by themselves, if they see potential too.

                              It’s up to them.

                              I just show them how to do it.

                              Sharing the love.  No point in just me benefitting.

                                Have a Kia EV6 GT Line in Pearl White, lovely car. Would have had the S model in a heartbeat but can’t see it coming onto the scheme, so E from me.

                                Doubts I had on door handles find them easy to use. Rear windows slippery angle keeps clean, no need for wiper. Ceramic paint finish recommend, rain peels off it. (Extra thrown in to get my business) Performance, range, comfort, loaded with everything you need, even drives itself, BUT prefer to be in control. Kia have limited production on these, to comply with targets I have read. Produce same numbers as Ferrari worldwide, hope it remains on the scheme.

                                  Hi TVS,

                                  Wonderful choice of car.  And negotiating Ceramic paint finish for free, well done.

                                  I was planning in doing this also.  Means the car will look showroom ready when our weather not like now.

                                   

                                  Sounds from the feedback, from everyone above, as if the GT Line S ever goes on sale, there will be an avalanche of prospective buyers.

                                  Maybe worthwhile me getting in touch with Kia, and show them the potential sales their missing out on.

                                  It’s all about profit, and not often you have a ready made buyer like us.

                                  C’mon Kia.
