Thanks for that Neil, it is not for me but a possible replacement for one on my maintenance fleet. Not sure if she wants to go electric but that came up in my general search for automatics!! Am I right about the range because the one thing she does need is to be able to get down to her Mum's house fast in the event of an emergency and that is a 110 mile trip. So I think that aspect would probably induce anxiety which can obviously be avoided with a different car!! :)

I don’t think the 24kWh Leaf is going to provide a good match for those needs Mick.

A Skoda SUV and a Cupra, which was what the thing was a few days ago with the 'wolf's head' badge. May even have been the same one.

A Tesla outside the doctor's surgery but most interesting and moving too fast for a photo an electric police car in the village. The anti ev gossips keep saying they'll run out of power, records show that's only happened twice in three years.

If that's the price it goes for I may have been tempted to buy it for daughter to replace her C3.
Replaced it with another C3 though.

Tesla, MG, Audi and Leaf, all to quick to capture on a photo, plus this thing, whatever it might be.

Saw a Vivaro E the other day (Dispatch / Expert clone). Can't think I have seen one (or the PSA versions) before.
