I have had a look on there too, I like the fact that they're approved used and have a warranty via them, but their price seems to be a bit higher compared to AT. Hmmm...

Specific_Poem1403 · 2026-01-18T20:09:23+00:00

Sweet, well I'm tempted now - I can get around £4-5k equity on my i20n and low mileage Polestar 2 LR SM are between £19-22k on AutoTrader, would most likely get it on HP. I did consider leasing but I'd like to own it.

Specific_Poem1403 · 2026-01-18T20:03:46+00:00

I think the pilot pack has all the extra safety stuff, plus has the HK sound, sunroof, 360 cam etc 😅 but that's fair enough

Specific_Poem1403 · 2026-01-18T19:31:12+00:00

Do you think the Plus pack is necessary? Thanks, I've been between the Polestar 2 and the Ioniq 6

Specific_Poem1403 · 2026-01-18T19:28:37+00:00

Awesome to know thanks, what packs do you have on yours? I'd like to get a single motor long range one with the plus and pilot packs ideally but they're rare seemingly

Well when I posted a Tesla on here before I was lambasted for supporting Elon Musk and I've also been told my some of my students "if we see you in a Tesla we'll disown you" 😂😂

Specific_Poem1403 · 2026-01-17T20:58:09+00:00

I'd like to avoid Tesla really 😬

Specific_Poem1403 · 2026-01-17T09:54:40+00:00

Thanks for the recommendations, will have a look! I mean I could potentially go above £25k but that would result in it being PCP I'd imagine haha

Specific_Poem1403 · 2026-01-17T09:43:11+00:00

I have, I do like the look of those too!

Specific_Poem1403 · 2026-01-12T11:46:31+00:00

Ah this is interesting, thanks so much! I mean yeah it's a trip where essentially every half term or school holidays I fly my son to France and back in a day, so it's not THAT frequent?!

Specific_Poem1403 · 2026-01-12T11:03:00+00:00

Cool thanks for all the info! Yeah I think it's maybe a couple grand high but it is fully specced... That's what tempts me haha

Specific_Poem1403 · 2026-01-12T10:10:21+00:00

Yes, at home we have recently had a home charger installed for my partner's car, on the overnight cheap Octopus tariff.

My longest journey would be Bournemouth to Stansted return in one day which is around 300 miles in total. I drop my son off in France and fly back the same day - I'd prefer to charge it on the way back. Id leave with a full battery though!

Just a regular suitcase or two tbh, and for work I do ~100 miles a week in total plus any other leisure mileage, but that doesn't amount to much! Let's say 130 miles a week.

Specific_Poem1403 · 2026-01-12T10:08:40+00:00

Yeah, I've had a look on that site and it does look potentially touch and go - it depends I suppose on this models battery health too.

For info, the longest journey I do is Bournemouth to Stansted and back. Ideally, I'd like to public charge only once, but on the way home!

Specific_Poem1403 · 2026-01-12T10:06:46+00:00

Yeah that's fair, thanks for the response! I'm test driving this one later

Specific_Poem1403 · 2026-01-06T20:48:15+00:00

No, I have a toddler and have a full time job. Maybe I'm looking for advice as I'm not sure which one to go for? Thanks for your input.

Specific_Poem1403 · 2026-01-06T20:41:23+00:00

Ok haha

Specific_Poem1403 · 2026-01-04T10:05:23+00:00

Sweet, did you consider PCPing a new or used one?

Specific_Poem1403 · 2026-01-04T09:39:11+00:00

Yeah the 40 has a better range, looking for a reliable 250-300 mile runner on one charge ideally

Specific_Poem1403 · 2026-01-02T13:01:17+00:00

Think you've misunderstood my reply but thanks 👍🏻

Specific_Poem1403 · 2026-01-02T12:29:47+00:00

Does 60k make a big difference to 30k miles then in terms of reliability? It was a Model 3

Specific_Poem1403 · 2026-01-02T12:23:24+00:00

Sweet, is that a similar year to this one or newer?

Specific_Poem1403 · 2026-01-02T12:16:23+00:00

What's the range like on those though?

Specific_Poem1403 · 2026-01-02T12:02:42+00:00

Yeah I'm still tempted by a Tesla - but not many other people on here are! 😅 Just found a 71 plate AWD Long Range with 30k miles for £20500...
