Having any gears at all will soon be quaint. Majority of BEVs don't have a gearbox.

Loving the Jeep by the way, just in case you were wondering. Fun car, should be on prescription. 😊

That’ll come in handy at Sainsbury’s. 🙄

You'd just have to take a bit more of a run at it... 😉

Been using the Jeep today, the Merc was in for a service, ( not too scary, £182 at my local indy. ) Anyway, I really enjoyed tooling about in the Renegade. So much so that I'm ever so slightly thinking that a diesel one might do for me.
I may just go and lie down for a while until that thought wears off of course.

No worries, I wouldn't expect either of you to understand. One of you likes beige cars and the other one doesn't even like sunroofs. The Jeep is a joyful little car and driving it makes me feel younger and happier. I was as sceptical as any when "she" said she wanted one, but I'm a convert. Love it, totally irrational I know, but I do. 😉

If a sunroof was not so expensive on cars I'd have one again. Back in the day they were a standard item on many cars long before we had aircon. When I got my Golf GTI in 1999 it came with a sunroof as standard but I added aircon. I then didn't have a sunroof until the Mazda which had it as standard (on the Sport trim anyway).
But since then it's quite expensive and is often part of a pack. It certainly is part of a pack on the BMW 3-series. I like the extra light in the car and don't necessarily want it open.

You need an i3 then. The sunroof is a standalone option, yours to take for £780 — or ignore for nothing.
(The pack thing is a bummer in other ways, though. CLSes more recent than mine have memory seats only as part of the Premium Plus pack, which also includes ... yes, you guessed it. Part of the reason I started out looking for a 2015 car and bought a 2013 one instead.)

I noticed the other day that all BMW 3 series have been upgraded to a Pro spec so have the bigger infotainment display and digital dials running BMW OS 7. Previously to get that you had to go to M Sport spec of have a PHEV 330e.
If I wasn't going PHEV I'd much prefer a Sport Pro to an M Sport Pro.
I'll just enjoy the 330e whilst I have it.
