Why did you choose this car?
I’ve bought the EV to save on corporation tax and fuel. I chose the Jaguar I-PACE at the circa £70k price level as the Tesla was poor inside in comparison and that was the only real contender! The iX3 was bland IMO.

 

Positives – List 3 or more reasons why you love this car.

  • The SPEED! It’s so quick! And I’ve had an M4, Porsches, etc, etc and this thing is mind-boggling!
  • It’s refined and great to drive
  • The spec is fantastic at HSE level and I got a stock car that didn’t limit options due to chip shortages 👍🏼

 

Negatives – List 3 or more things that you really don’t like about this car.

  • I’ve had  a lot of BMWs and the infotainment system isn’t as good
  • The dealer experience was appalling and this seems to be a theme.

If you’re able to realistically afford one and you test drive it, I assure you, you will buy one! They are much better than I imagined as a driver’s car.

Another I-PACE! Now that’s saying something for someone who changes his cars every 18 months.

 

What home charging unit do you use? Would you recommend it to others and why?
Easee – neat, compact, discreet and no lead at the front of the house.
