      i suppose they could just say that retail stock is for retail customers. i dare say they could also start a lease stock list and just dont fill it

        i wouldnt think it was all that common for car to go back after a month or so in comparison to the amount of leases.

        i can obviously see motabilities point re selling it rather than leasing, although they do sometimes lease quite new, modified mpv type vans etc.

          i like and use most of the stuff on my one. most im so used to i wouldnt like to be without. sensors and camera, blind spot, fancy cruise etc. anything that makes me safer and dont have to try and look over my shoulders too much is all great. in lane steer i dont really use much but i dont use motorways much or long runs

            both are about same retail but the i4 wont sell retail as well perhaps until more are seen on road and of course they need to sell a lot due to the charges hence the ap difference. bmw want  us to buy them

              im guessing they took the dl offer as it was saving them(they hoped) a lot of cash. hopefully they have a watertight case to get them to comply or they will move again; probably get a decent deal for the new business if they do. lets face it, its not a bad business to get i’d have thought risk wise.

                my charger at home has a tethered cable. its fairly stiff and heavy and i use 2 crutches, but i manage it ok. its amazing what your hands can carry as well as the crutch. even arthritic hands lol. i have to admit ive never used a public charger tho so that might be trickier. never needed to as the kona has pretty decent range

                  govts charging companies for not selling enough of them compared to gas versions caused this lack of balance.  easy for govt to make themselves look eco without really costing them any money. joe public gets the hard choices tho.

                  after saying that, if my next ev(if indeed it is) at a reduced price i guess i wont complain quite as loudly…

                              think it was the electric seat actually when i think more.. had electric lumbar but manual seat, which is odd. was the quattro version i think. its still a decent deal i suppose but in a high class car you dont want to be adding packs

                                Audi have confirmed today that the 360 display no longer has cameras. Basically just 360 parking sensors. such a shame a high spec manufacturer can’t meet in my opinion basic spec.

                                 

                                pretty poor show. cant remember what it was but might have been adaptive cruise was an extra too. in this day i’d say that should be as standard, especially on anything above basic spec.

                                 

                                im sadly running short of cars on my short list lol

                                  bmw and volvo, whether its dealers or company not looking too good out of this. the chip situation shouldnt be causing so much of an issue as thats supposedly mostly back to normal apparently.

                                  so are they just abusing motability clients, just because it makes them more money and there is perhaps less comeback

                                      I’m getting grief from my wife. I did not notice when I viewed and test drive the zr that there was no roof grab handles. She has difficulty getting out of the car and the grab handles were a great help. She keeps reaching for them and there not there. She says she would never had let me lease this car if she had known they did not have any.

                                       

                                      you get grabs that fit into the door opening that can lever you up then just pull out of the hole in door frame. they are handy and cheap from amazon

                                              may need to take it back to dealer for the update. maybe for other things too.  sounds like there may be a few rough edges still to be polished

                                                      usually the date your initial lease is 3 years and you need to wait until that date arrives. the extention arranged by the dealer doesnt count
