  1. Stevey Y - I could not agree with you more on your points ............
  2. I could not agree more. It amazes me that back then there was not issue with the creation of electric, cheap and cheerful. Yet in todays world the car manufacturers make it extremely expensive .. its so unnecessary ......
  3. Stevey Y, I agree with all your points. I believe that the elctric car market is realy being introduce for the wealthy and elite of the UK to price everyone else out so they have to use London Transport etc, trains, buses and bikes to get around .........or worse just stay indoors (hence lockdown) 🤣
  4. Steve, I second that motion. I find it highly ridiculous that the electric ar market is extoriate to the point you need to wealthy to afford one. Even the electric min is around £30 -35K 😲 Mine Audi A5 convertible is £45K brand new - even I would not have bought it at that price. even if you paid me 🤣 Something drastic needs to happen to get those electric car prices down swiftly. If the majority of the citizens of the UK did not buy one then car manufacturers would have no alternative other than to reduce and give massive discounts to shift them.
  5. Steve - thank you for your kind words. 😀 It was tempting, however I am waiting for a convertible version. 😏 I informed the salesman that if Audi decide to produce a convertible then you call me and we can strike a reasonable deal. 🤣 There is no way I am spending in excess of £89K on the Audi e-tron GT at £1,110.00 per month repayments; although there are no other costs involved such as servicing with the exception of tyres and brakes. I have no doubt that around 3 yeears down the line the prices of electric cars will come down in price. Currently I believe that many are out reach of the general motorists. 😲 I intend to purchase an electric car in 3 years time for my 60th birthday. 😏😀
  6. Well...what can I say!?!😎 I was one of the first in the country to have the opportunity to test drive the new Audi e-tron GT and on my own without any passengers or salemen. I couldn't believe when they said he is the key and off you go. 👍 The first think I noticed was the beautiful body design. The interior is amazing too with the familiarity of the position of the controls and the drive position gives you a relaxing feeling. I felt like I was in a slightly smoother version of my own car which is the Audi A5 convertible which has quite a lot of power for a convertible. 😏 You believe that you are in an Audi but with a feeling of power and control throughout the drive. Then suddenly you test that accelerator pedal and short but punchy press down and gee-whizz .. you take of like a rocket!!! The G-force throws you back in the seat and you give a big smile of joy as the power and accelration does not stop. From 0 to 60 in seconds and before you know you are hitting high speed. 😏🤣 There is no lag when you press the accelerator to power delivered ... its all at your feet when you want and how you want it.😀 And when you brake hard from say 60 mph the car more-or-less brings you to a stand-still effortlessly. The driver will see the speed you are doing projected from the windscreen to about 3 feet from the front of the car about 2 feet from the surface of the road - simply amazing! There is no excuse to get caught speeding! 🤣 But Officer I had no idea of what speed I was doing!! But Sir you are driving the Audi e-tron with projected speed in front of you!?! Sorry Officer it was switched off. 🤣🤣 Here are the pictures I took:
  7. Just to let you know the Audi e-tron GT has arrived at my local showrrom and I will be test driving it on Tuesday 25 May 2021 at midday - I cannot wait!! 😀
