Even if as you say, warranty is 7 years - that's still crap.

I have an 11 year old Colorado which I bought new, with an Isuzu diesel engine in it which will see me out if looked after. I keep it for towing trailers - but my next SUV will be petrol for town driving - not a chance in hell that I would buy Electric - except perhaps a golf cart.

I do appreciate your efforts though - Aus is decades away from using Ev's (If ever) - I do agree that they should easier to maintain (less parts) - but I dont believe the world can maintain production of batteries for the hordes. Perhaps that is part of the plan.

For you next city car consider a Hybrid.

I was a little reluctant to buy but after almost a year it's the go. Quiet, comfortable and runs on fumes (about 4.8l/100km)
