Will the rear seat move forward?
And the Astra was no problem?
I could sling a mattress in the back of the Astra and flop my 1.92m quite comfortably and still have room for my sweetheart.
The Feds are updating their ancient fleet, now going on 5 years, with new EVs. They have just made a deal, without tender for a reasonable sum, with BMW. Nice to see our tax franks being put to good use in the never ending battle against climate change.
Federal government: „How gaudy can you make it?“
BMW: „Yes“
I think I just saw an MG Cybester on the road near Aarau. Driver was a young(ish), anyway the car was in grandpa beige color. I’m curious at how that thing drives considering it’s ~1’900 kg empty.
Not as light as a Mazda MX-5, but 600 kg lighter than the current BMW M5 (RIP).
I find this pretty interesting. I’ve always been a fan of diesels, particularly the 3-liter, 6-cyl lump in my old BMW 330d touring. It was incredibly reliable, economical, punchy, smooth and it once took me from Basel to London on a single tank of fuel.
Could this be a consumer fight back against EVs and Hybrids, which are not proving as reliable or cheap to repair as promised?

Care to explain why diesel cars have gone up 12% on the used car market? I would expect vintage Porsches or Ferraris to appreciate in value, but not a Honda HRV.
Because no-one is buying new diesels any more so the used supply is increasingly tight.

I don’t remember. But, Renault 5 EV is not there, I guess not up to date.
Probably not many used ones yet, either.
I have trust in the consumerist society.
More than one should have bought the car at launch, driven for 5-10k km and move on the next shinny new thing.
Maybe they like them too much?
In that sense I am a horrible consumer.
Speaking of E bloody. V’S
MY DACIA HAS DIED
On the busiest road in Augsburg on the B bloody 17.
Looks like it has blown the tranny, so no swimming in the Lech for me later on.
Been waiting two hours for the tow.
