I'm on a diesel and the emission zones in the UK are making it more challenging to own one. That said it has 750 miles range, 4 wheel drive, a station wagon, can actually tow stuff without halfing that range and can fill it up anywhere in minutes. It suits my lifestyle perfectly.

That and it cost me £2600.. I wonder what electric car I could get for that.

I think you're looking at electric bikes rather than cars for that money.
