To replace my partners Citroen DS4. Now that I have the Leon we don’t need 2 cars capable of long distance driving, plus the i3 is very him! Will be leasing it through his company, ordered full EV in platinum silver with the sport pack (fancier alloys, dark tinted rear windows, led headlights, Harmon Kardon sound), Loft interior, Profesional iDrive (bigger screen, all sorts of online stuff).
They are great to drive, very BMW like and my god do they accelerate fast, sooo much fun to drive!

The exterior may be controversial for some, but I love the interior on these. Its fantastic. Seems like a good buy for commuting and such.

Nice cars. The interior is fantastic and they actually handle quite well.

The exterior is very colour sensitive, the one above is the same colour as ours will be and same wheels, they have grown on me. The interior is awesome, looks really good in the “Loft world” we have spec’d and it really needs the bigger screen of the pro iDrive.

I really like how the i3 drives too, and it is one of the few cars I prefer in a grey-ish colour, so I think you made a great choice. Does it have the bamboo on the inside?

I love the i3! From everything I’ve heard they’re fantastic cars. And they have one of the best looking interiors today.

Cool! I’m seeing more and more of these around here.
How was the DS4? PSA is threatening to sell cars here eventually and I’d be interested in seeing the DS line show up.

I love these. I wish my mom weren’t so set on having a non-german car, I would’ve much rather seen her in this than a CT200H. Oh well.

Yeah you’re right about them being colour sensitive. I quite like them in blue.

Are you getting the one with the scooter engine?

The blue is nice but then you don’t get cool looking blue i highlights.

No, it was an extra £360!

The DS4 has been a great car, very good to drive and reliable (just 2 engine temp sensors on a recall in 4 years). Going to miss it and it’s massaging seats!

He did want a CT200 once until he heard about CVT gearboxes!

No, we have no need for it, my brothers has the REX and he says they prob won’t bother next time, makes it slower 0-60 having it as well!

That’s an expensive bit of what I heard someone once refer to as ‘that stuff pandas eat’.

It’s a nice appliance, and it looks good, but that’s about it.

Very nice. I did test drive of one at small auto show. I found the braking werid, but it was really fun. If I lived in the city I totally rock one, out in the country where I live there’s not enough infrastructure to support EVs. I could do a Volt, or it have to be a REX.

Nice! I’ve never gotten to drive one, but I was blown away by how roomy and comfortable the interior was. I wish the small unobtrusive console would catch on.

The interior really is a lovely place to be, we have gone for the “Loft World” interior, all light colours, will be a pain to keep clean but it looked great on the demo car we drove.
