As an economy drive, my wife and I are looking at getting an electric car.
My daily commute is about 15 miles on city roads (Through Edinburgh) So the plan is to buy a small electric car for commuting in, and both of us to use to run around town in, keeping the 124 Estate for trips etc.
The reasons for this: Fuel cost - Much cheaper to plug in overnight, than to refill the big tank in my 300TD, and environmental reasons - 0 carbon emissions.
Anyone had any experience of these?
There's a good link for a G Wiz dealer, in London: GoinGreen - Driving Down Pollution
But I can't find any suppliers of the Aixam car.
Also - G Wiz need a service every 6 months, and I wouldn't be planning on sending it to London every six months, so need to find a mechanic willing to work on it up here.
Your thoughts much appreciated:
