That is strange as I corrected it before posting.
The bluebells ones did too.
Fixed now.
I despair of mobile phone cameras but they are so convenient, except most shots a push the button and hope for the best as the screen is obliterated with reflections.

I feel an avalanch of total disagreement there Gibbo :-D To me that looks like something left behind along The Mall today no doubt, in both colour and shape. If it were not for the seats sticking up I would swear it was the product of a stampeding herd of elephants!! :-D
I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure!

I just said the colour was 'striking' Mick, didn't say I liked it, however I do like toffee apples. :)

That will be the e208 Steve.

The e2008 is the compact SUV bit bulkier and higher.

On the way (2023) the Peugeot e-308 and the e-308 Station Wagon

How rare is a red Tesla? Probably not very but a little more rare I would have thought than the usual white/greys/blacks and even blues

Red ones score extra points, because at one time it was a TWO GRAND option :shock:

Saw an ID Buzz in van config earlier. Looked it up - just 500kg load capacity, and 1000 kg trailer limit. And it costs £50k. £60k if you want seats. Bonkers....

I like to see a bit of variety, but cant help thinking the conglomerate Stellantis ends up doing a bit of a BL and competing with itself amongst its own brands. Steve's mention on the spotting thread is the only one I can find.

Spotted one the other day which I can only assume to be the DS3 E-tense.

Ambitions to become a purely electric brand by 2024, but confusing at the moment in their "E-Tense marketing" as the DS4, DS7, DS9 use it but are not 100% Electric but plug in Hybrids

As ever the website in common with many others is poor in navigation and content, and currently DS only have one electric car entitled to wear the green flash in the UK and that is the DS3. If you want to find out about a new car head for a youtube review of your choice not the manufacturers website!
