Depends on the wrap you're after and the size of the car, starts from about 2-3k and can go up to whatever. PPF is obviously cheaper.

Caved and ordered a Model Y in midnight silver. Anywhere good to wrap the cars in / near central London? Looking at getting a satin silver or nardo grey or just get Xpel on top of the midnight silver. Not sure yet.

Protects the paintwork, easy to remove if you want to go back to the original colour if/when you sell. Costs less than painting. Can improve the car if you really hate the original colour and make your car unique to others. Cons… they can’t always wrap everywhere like some internal sills.
Saw the Ioniq 5 which looks alright but something put me off it so ordered a model 3.

Have access to the Tesla supercharger network but what's a good backup charging network to look out for and use/subscribe to? I'm looking at Pod Point as they have partnered with a couple of supermarkets and offer 22W/50W charging at a reasonable price 26p/kWH. Others I notice they have monthly subs and/or charge 40p+ kWH (though still cheaper than running an ICE I guess).
Avoided this thread until now, as I’ve never owned/needed to buy a car. Expecting first baby mid next year, and apparently a car is a useful thing to have in that situation.
We live in a city and other than the odd UK holiday each year, most drives won’t be longer than 50 miles to visit parents, friends etc.
I like the idea of an electric car, although that’s founded more on assumptions rather than evidence (are they cheaper to run? is demand so high it’s impossible to get a good deal?)
What are my options? Do I lease? PCP? PCH?Do I buy? If I can spend c£300 a month all in I’d be happy - I don’t even know if that’s a reasonable budget. Fuk, please Craig David me.

Oxford has a decent EV charging infrastructure from what I’ve read so you definitely could go for an EV without having a place to charge at home. They are deffo cheaper to run, not just on fuel but no need for MOT and less mechanical things to fail, etc. As for purchasing the car, you checked to see if your employer has a car scheme? Sometimes can work out as cheap as £30 a month BIK (that you pay) for something like a Tesla.
