Think the car sold this week shy of 50k most likely. Cant see it anywhere on autotrader or ebay. Well seems to be a market there 😂. At 5k margin i reckon. The discounted duty is definitely working.

Reduced by £5,000. Guys was dreaming. Now close to realistic price.

Crazy money indeed. I reckon you could import a Nismo at the end of this year for near £55,000.....because ive seen a Nismo for around £44k discounted from £51,000 with few miles.....if discounted duty stays the same its possible along with local depreciation On top of that theres 180+ for sale in Japan and theyre coming down. Patience is key to not getting ripped off. The margin here on this particular car is about £9,000+ 😉..because theyre 37k new locally for ST model. Yes the seller will make more than 9 bags as the yoof say.

So we have a 22kw at home it charges the Kia ENiro in 4-5 hours from 20-80%. Its charged once a week if that. But cost around £3. It would be cheaper with Solar. Most homes that have a charger probably use 7kw thats 11 hours or so. People who have Octopus Energy or EV Tarriffs charge overnight when its cheapest. Between 12 and 5am.

Lol, buying a car from Brum....fair play they put the trim as ST. So yeah theyre 37k+ in Japan. http://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202504301897298?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android-app

With a 22kw it should take 5 hours. But theyve only set it to charge at certain times. On their EV tarriffs.

Sounds like a slower 50kw charger or granny charger. Some cars cant take Supercharging. Even without supercharging shouldnt be over an hour. If charging to 100% 80-100 is slower.

Car designer for sure. Looks good!

£60,000 the profit margin is 5-8k per car depending on discount....for a car that does 3.4 seconds to 60. Beats the preface lift F type on quarter mile (11.4). Beats many supercars, keeps up with 812 Superfast for 400 meters as seen on youtube is not a bad price. Yeah you could pick up any of the others. But it takes some bravery to bring a car like this to the market when no one has bothered. The only thing that can compare the MX5 is its a roadster. Aside from that theyre not comparable as the target different markets. Theres a reason people choose SL AMG, Z4, F Type Roadster as opposed to the MX5. Theyre looking for a GT experience not a small sports car experience. Also the cars two times the size of an MX5 and quite wide. A case of each to their own with the Cyberster. Its sold over 3000 just hasn't sold many in China just above 1000 cars for various reasons including practicality. Thats why theyll bring the 4 seater coupe to market at the end of the year. At least they tried on a section of the market thats 28%. It was always a tough sell. In China there are other cars that sell more than MG. MG sales are mostly international markets Running costs are low on certain pre 25 plates. £190 tax £999 insurance. 4 pound a charge with a home charger cheaper with Solar. UK is probably the only market that didnt offer lifetime warranty. Thailand, China did Australia offered 10 years warranty possibly due to expected low sales. Also Thailand is a third party running the show there. Car cost 60k there too and it still sold more than UK. Its got people talking which was the aim of the designer. They needed a Halo car and it will probably be end of life within a few years.

Seen lots of track videos from China and US when it was tested there. Not too many complaints. It does suffer from understeer due to weight. But so would an SL AMG or F Type Convertible. Both weigh over 1700kg...the latest iteration of AMG GT is around 2100kg.... Cybersters been praised by many media agencies. Its a GT not a sports car or an MX5 as people have compared it to. It is what it is. Still waiting for the competition to show up something better. The Cyberster was tuned amd partly developed by a former Ferrari Engineer (Marco Fainello) I suppose they did what they could with the 1885 and 1985kg weights it carries due to the batteries. Advantage being a stiffer chassis and better weight distribution (Skateboard setup). Whereas Porsche are going for a box battery behind the driver where the engine used to be. Lets see what the competition drums up if theres any within the next 2 years. Porsche Boxster EV may be delayed as the battery suppliers gone bust. Tough market lol...Couldn't be me.

Wow, that looks fun for an all wheel drive. Biased Haldex.

Doubt it the quality of cars coming out of China has increased ten-fold. The Teslas coming from China dont suffer the same panel gaps as the ones from US. It will weigh the same as an SL Mercedes based on the size. Looks like a large car. Battery tech has moved along now. The model 3 weighs 1800kg and that's old generation batteries. This is going to weigh 1000kg apparently and made in UK https://longbowmotors.com/roadster/

BYD unveil new Z car. Looks nice. 41k in China apparently if it gets made.

£51,000 for a possible ST Leather seats (Sport Touring) or Touring...New they are £34- £37,000 in Japan. Didnt state what version it was. Youre basically paying GTR money for a standard 370Z Turbo as an Early UK buyer! 🤣. Basically without a middle man 33k gets you the cheapest could be a 25 plate base car cleared. But 37-45k gets you an ST with suede leather seats, wheels, painted calipers and 60-65k gets you a Nismo. 70k in a container with a middle man.... 😆. Maybe youd be able to get rid of the Nismo for 65k because of rarity via auction but still... Now if you think about it if that Chris dude paid 46k for near new and it was an ST plus used a company thats actually good...He wouldn't have saved much maybe 2k or so assuming the car was 36k in Japan. If you're gonna buy one. Learn your trims dont get ripped off 😆 Base, S, T, ST, Nismo and Customized on non Nismo trims.

Yep https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5y45ed494do.amp
