      Unsurprisingly the Megan E Techs 2 month AP reduction window is now over

      Glad to say it saved me £700 by being able to order 3 months prior to end of lease

      The present AP of £1995 IMO is still realistic when you compare and take into consideration the whole package

      Cant remember but I think it was £500 more in Q1? and double todays AP when it first hit the scheme

      Please correct me if not

        I’ve saw good road tests on the MG 4 too will look at that another day

        Was that by Panetauto 800 mile road trip on youtube Mike. They review alot of cars from a mobility perspective, don’t think they have done one in the Meganeyet though.

            Have look a Planetauto’s reviews and roadtrips on alot of the cars they test, which average 800 miles over 2 or 3 Video’s, plus they do overview video’s showing access, headroom space etc

            Heres the first MG4 roadtrip video, will keep you entertained one afternoon 🙂

                  I discounted Planetauto’s reviews as garbage.

                  They did a review on the MG4 taking it to Scotland, but they were both driving around wearing big heavy jackets and a hat.

                  You cannot give an unbiased view on an EV doing that.

                  Didnt the police issue a warning last winter about driving a car wearing a large bulky jackets is unlawful???   They do not like it anyway.

                    Do you mean a Berghaus down coat I wear one in winter going to local football and a cap can’t I wear a thick coat in an electric car ?

                        I can imagine that being me when I have an EV if not wearing full thermals to! Given I suffer terrible Raynauds, and feel the slightes’t bit of cold, since my illness.

                          Kezo can you please confirm but it looks to me that the megane techno and the MG4 don’t have electric folding mirrors when you lock the car ?!

                              On the Trophy spec “Electrically adjustable power folding heated black door mirrors” SE doesn’t mention auto folding!

                              Megane not sure at mo, Maybe someone who has one can say! (older ones were operated from a knob to fold)

                                Well great news my iconic Megan E Tec is in the country

                                Should get to dealers anytime within the next 3 weeks

                                Handover 5 weeks from now (fingers crossed)

                                If so thats only 17 weeks total wait

                                All good as factory ordered 3 months before end of 3yr lease and before the £700 AP increase this quarter

                                I contacted my dealer a week ago and mentioned the batch of 42 ceramic grey/black roof  were on its way over ( heard about it on the grapevine) and if poss could they grab one for me.

                                Pics will follow as will my honest user reviews

                                    I sat fell in the Megane and struggled to get out last week when we looked at the Austral. It made me realise how old I’m getting and no spring chicken however it was very nice, just not for me!

                                          After 3yrs of crouching down to get into the v low corsa F it will be a  joy to have the extra 100mm headroom and being able to stop on the line at the traffic lights rather than having to pull up 8ft short just to be able to see when they changed  lol   ps Megan seat pumps up/down v high/low to suit

                                            you will love it, make sure they do the alarm fix before delivery or you will have not happy neighbours!… my first advice is to download vivaldi browser from the play store, it will allow you to browse and watch you tube when stationary as well as login to prime and disney plus and watch those. abrp is able to install, so is waze direct to the car. just dont forget to set up your phone as a hot spot for the car to connect to, the 3gb of data wont last long using those services.

                                                Menorca Mike I got a test drive at an evans halshaw dealership I was allowed to go out on my own and they let me take one they had in stock at another dealership only had to wait 2 days it’s worth ringing around the dealership’s to see if they have any in stock there willing to  let you take plus they gave me a good deal only had to pay £195 after motability contribution and to top it all never been as pleased with a motability car I find it really comfortable and smooth and that’s with a really bad back

                                                  My iconic has electric folding mirrors when you lock the car not sure about other models tho

                                                  Just to add I see with the right browser app installed ( vivaldi ) you are able to watch disney + /Netflix and so on the infotainment screen

                                                  also

                                                  Best to make sure the car has had its alarm issues addressed prior to handover imo

                                                      Thats the best thing about Motability, anything wrong they dealership fixes it.

                                                      Always a gamble with a new model arriving, they do have teething problems.

                                                      But with EV’s they can fix most issues with an over the air update.

                                                      You are gonna have a big smile across your face when you get your car dude.

                                                      I loved the Megane test drive, but the seating was a bit low for me. Otherwise it would have been my

                                                      choice. It is a gorgeous motor.

                                                      But you will be grinning and laughing when the motor arrives.

                                                        Although I dont/cant drive to much of late

                                                        Leave that to my lovely wife

                                                        Just heard the home easee charger is being installed on the 2nd Aug a few weeks before the cars handover

                                                        Seems all my yrs of pushing and shoving things along has paid off

                                                        Took a year of @s just to get my driveway facility grant approved ( A Miracle as achieved during covid ) and another 6 months more to get it installed which in turn has now allowed me to have an electric car with home charging.

                                                        I would not have considered going electric if I didnt have home charging.

                                                        I expect to home charge about 98% of the time as the car will only travel about 12 miles a day on average

                                                        Between shops lol

                                                        Unlike my little 1.2 turbo petrol
