Mrs Fop has taken on a new job that requires a hefty amount of driving, in our pretty uneconomical Skoda Yeti (~34 mpg)
I've also been thinking that I don't feel comfortable driving something as damaging to the environment as a petrol car, so have been trying to do the Man Maths on a new car.
Which brings me to the
e-niro. Which is not out yet/only just been released, and is therefore a matter of buying new, which I've never figured on doing with a car.
But it looks ace. 290 miles range (which it obviously would never get, but even at 250 miles that's more than enough for the driving we do 95% of the time).
And 0-60 in around 6 seconds, which won't be giving Hearthly a run for his money but certainly is no slouch.
But at £35k it's a hefty old bank loan we'd be looking at.
I think the right decision is to wait until there are more cars like this on the market.
But shiny.
Also, I could call it Robert.
