I am quite keen on the idea of an electric car.

I am less keen on the idea of a car which spies on me.

I have an electric bicycle, which I love, and use as often as I can. But I am looking here for a car.

I kind of like the old Nissan Leaf, and it might *just* fit the bill, range wise. But I've also read various concerns. So I umm and aaah about them.

Newer electric cars leave me with a sense of "nice car you got there. Shame if we changed something about it or spied on you".

I am not a car person.

I drive, but I don't enjoy driving particularly. It is a means to an end for me.

I much prefer to take a train but, sometimes, is either not possible, or else does not make sense (generally, time or money-wise).

@neil We have a BMW i3 which i like very much. @signs did loads and loads of research when we were looking so he might be able to offer some thoughts
@mollysdailykiss @neil always happy to offer any insights :-)
