Comment on Cost of owning a BMW i3

Comments

I wonder why he's getting rid of the vehicle.

It's a one car household. He's probably going back to something that has a more practical form factor i.e. another 4-door station wagon (a 4dr hatch is a small station wagon, change my mind) of similar footprint. The i3 is heavily optimized to be a city commuter car. It's not optimized to be a multi-tool

Or his wife (page isn't loading anymore but IIRC he used a bunch of language implying he has a >1 person household) has one in the oven and they're doing what every upper middle class couple does when that happens, buying a crossover.

Three year leases are common in the UK

OP says he bought the car privately.
