Well it’s been 3 months in our first ev,a used project 45 .
A few thoughts.
We haven’t done many miles but have just come back from a 300 mile trip,most of our miles are around town,and we are getting around 200ish at 80% charge.
We charged for the first time on the motorway,very easy but luckily when we arrived only one charger left,so not sure in peak but as most of our trips are under 15 miles not a real problem.
The car is very comfortable and spacious,although with the wheel arch intrusions I did break a golf club pushing the bag to the back of the boot!
The equipment levels are staggering,I’ve yet to use self parking or relaxation seats so can’t comment,but the rest of the tech works seamlessly,esp like the blind spot cameras.
Seats are very comfortable,with plenty of adjustments,I especially like the headrests.
Being retired and not tech savvy at all I was surprised how simple it all is to operate although daunting at first,Blue link has worked every time.
I picked my wife and friends up in it and they said in the back it was like a London Taxi!
The turning circle in this car is none existent,also due to the size you will need a huge parking space and whilst navigating B roads you will have to have your Witts about you as this is a deceivingly wide car.
We have a large dog and he travels well on the back seat in a rear seat hammock.
Which gets me on to a couple of things we have purchased for the car,the mentioned rear seat cover/hammock,a set of rubber mats front and rear,a boot liner and boot liner ext. for rear seats and bumper flap,a black bezel surround for the screen and I have fitted a Fitcamx dashcam.
Final thoughts.
It’s a stunning looking car(I know it’s subjective),it feels really well screwed together and the range is good if not excellent.It does have some shortcomings least of all the physical size but overall I think this is one of those cars that will age very well,time will see.
Three months in

Forgot to add,after experimenting with the different drive modes,for me the one I use is level three and normal drive.
Eco seems dreadfully sluggish and sport seems well sportish!

Any chance you could put a picture of the bezel in place on here and where you got it from
