Just thought i'd update on my EV experience. Buoyed by the ridiculously high used prices of the ID3 and the Born Cupra having exclusive access to the e-boost variant of the electric drivetrain (230ps, 0-62 6.6s official, 6.1s unofficial, vs he ID3's 204ps, 0-62 7.3s official, 6.7s unofficial), as well as the crazy wait times to consider my next one. I'm swapping for a Born next week.
There's a bit of dealership stock coming through on the Cupra Born, leapfrogging bona-fide customer orders and intended to be demos, but the cash strapped dealers are actually selling them. I'm collecting my Glacier White (metallic white that doesn't look metallic in the slightest, just like my ID3) V2 spec (there's only V1s and V2s in the first wave of demos, V3s don't seem to be coming through) 230ps e-boost Cupra Born on Wednesday.
Here's the actual car (someone I know through the ID3 forum went to look at it in Twickenham):-
