Looks good - not too big, nice price, decent specs, and also has V2L via AC

Very nice. Tried to buy a secondhand R5 Turbo in my youth, but couldn't afford the insurance. Changed tack, and got the Trans-Am instead!

Looks really good. Let’s hope it isn’t like the Honda e where everyone says it is brilliant but no one buys one!

Does look very cool - and it's supposed to be the finished item, not a concept car

Very good point! I think Renault will get the price point a lot better than Honda did.

My wife's Zoe goes back in October; currently this is top of her list as a replacement.

Hopefully the local Renault dealer will have a demonstrator in a few months time.

Sounds like a decent package to me, especially as battery costs continue to fall. Even being very negative with cold wet windy weather, I'd expect the car to manage 3m/kWh, so ~150 miles, which is (I think) a very reasonable figure.
