Selling ID.3
Aye the M4 is a right beastie. My pockets aren’t that deep but I wish you well
That “cor” moment as you look back at the vehicle on the drive? Totally understand it. ID.3 doesn’t do it for me either, but Taycans aren’t on Motability
Not much is on Motability these days, tbh

I really like the look of my car in moonstone (even with the steels) it stands out on the street, one of my neighbours has a black one and it looks really dull.
It’s a shame that you are selling but I hope you enjoy the M4 just a shame it only goes 70mph max speed. Lol

Thanks a lot guys.
From the look of second hand prices I may well hold
off a while once I’ve sold the ID.3 for prices to drop back to normal once the chip problem is resolved.

Funny, we bought the Id3 as we found it is the best looking EV, and one of the best looking cars full stop
Guess everyone has different taste
Definitely doesn’t look like a Bentley suv if you like that sort of thing

Fair enough! The look of a car is definitely down to personal taste. For me the ID3 has a very appealing design, especially more after seeing it in person.stevefletcher1978 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 18, 2021 7:46 pmNeeded a hatchback or estate, wanted something with reasonable range and power. Tesla’s were more than I wanted to spend. Thought the id.3 would hold its value reasonably well given Golfs seem to. Just seemed the best solution.
I’m used to having cars that fit the old cliche of when you’re walking away from them you take another look back at them. The id.3 has never been that for me. For me it’s plain, dull, the infotainment drives me mental, it’s just a cheap way of doing miles. Which I get is brilliant for a lot of people - genuinely not knocking them.
I’m hoping to replace it with an M4 - so polar opposites.
M4 is a beast though.

Manufacturers merely scaled back production during COVID and were caught unawares by the demand this year
VW is making ID3 and ID4s at two plants in Germany, currently working 24/7. The demand of the ID range has been much higher then anticipated, 144,000 cars were delivered by the end of July. They are building two more factories, one in China and one in the USA. When they come on line they will ease capacity somewhat

I deal with the chip shortages in my daily professional life, though not in an automotive context. Respectfully, the chip shortages exist no matter how much you claim they aren’t.
As to the impact on ID.3 builds, that I don’t know.

Manufactures are definitely struggling with the semi conductor shortage my son works at the Nissan plant and never knows from one week to the next how many shifts he will be working .
He is on half week again next week the lines keep shutting on a regular basis

there are chip shortages, although I understand they were worse last year
but I also understand they are not restricting all of the major suppliers in China and Europe, depending on location of the factory
Interestingly, I did hear that the Teslas being turned out in the Chinese factory are considered better quality then the ones in the US. Still a lottery where they come from. However, this does mean that the Chinese car factories are excellent, which we expect VWs new one to be!

Just a quick update for anyone interested. Car went on with Motorway on Saturday, got picked up this morning. Such a simple process.
The plus point was ended up getting £3k more for it than I paid brand new 4 months and 5k miles ago. Crazy.
Now on the hunt for an M4

I wonder if the "extra" £3k you got for it will be enough to warrant the cost of getting an M4, as all cars have increased in price?stevefletcher1978 wrote: ↑Wed Nov 03, 2021 1:23 pm Just a quick update for anyone interested.

All the good deals have dried up too because demand is massively outstripping supply.
Cupra Born V2 e-boost 230ps Aurora Blue, replaced ID3 PP Family
Audi S3 - because I hate rapid charging for long distance driving.

Yeah not in any rush for the M4. Wfh now and can share the other half’s car while I wait for a decent deal to come along.
Very nice outcome that, free transport and £3k for your trouble
Shame there’s not another EV that tickles your fancy, an M4 wouldn’t see which way Taycan went for example

DTD are still offering the same price as they did before the budget. The interest rate has increased.monkeyhanger wrote: ↑Wed Nov 03, 2021 3:13 pm All the good deals have dried up too because demand is massively outstripping supply.
The dealer I ordered from will also give me the same deal for a new order.
CarWow deals are not as good, but the odd dealer will provide some discount (in addition to plug in grant and PCP deposit).
Deals on ID.3 are still available.
On BMW i4 and others there are no discounts easily available.

Cheers mate.
Yeah I’m looking at previous M4. So 35-40k budget. Only about 60k short of a Taycan
Even crazier... last week we got £6,000 more on Motorway than we paid for one of our ID3 Familys last May.
