the £699 was for 1 year, but like i say that was the year after the extra 2 i got with it so the car would be 6 years old by then.

it did think it seemed alot!

Re: ID.3 Extended Warranty

i just got an almost 3 year old ID.3 - it came with 2 years warranty and they offered a 3rd year for £699 i think it was. (VW used approved) not a direct price comparison as that would cover year 6 so i assume price goes up.

Re: MY updates coming soon?

I noticed that the Cupra Born that is basically an ID.3 has the bigger screen as standard - due to launch around the same time next yet so that is believable.

I think it is regional differences - i am in North West England the cheap times on go faster only change the cost of the off peak dependant on how long you get it for - the other unit cost remained the same,...

Re: Ecotricity EV plus economy 7

i did look at that tariff but it seemed more expensive compared to others, i recall the standing charge was almost 40p a day?

Octopus Go Faster for me - 25p standing charge, 15p kWh and 5p kWh between 8:30 and 12:30 - seems to be working great for our usage style so far.

Re: Still unsure about EV ownership

I love my ID3, but put simply I wouldn’t own it if I didn’t have access to an ICE car. I do 300+ mile round trips every so often for work and just don’t want to add hours to an already long day sat at a charging station. If their is any change the range isn’t enough I just take the ICE. Most of my t...

Re: Anyone need a new battery? :)

I’ll take the alloys 😉

I was trying to decide if an electric car is more or less attractive to criminals

I do think charging cable theft will become an issue having seen the cost of them!

Re: Is it possible to have a Reversing Camera fitted post delivery ?

Yes. I read another thread about it can’t recall where. From memory costs fromVW about £900 but you can get aftermarket ones that need some coding I think Mine has one, first time I have had a car with one and 3 weeks in I hardly ever look at it. Maybe used to only having the mirrors and sensors. Th...

They did mine 8 days before collection.
