    MG4 vs approved Tesla M3

    Thanks you for sharing! It indeed is ludicrous. I have never taken a lease personally. However, I have leased hundreds of commercial vehicles in my previous company. The premise of a lease payment is the depreciation should be covered by the payment + the interest on the value of the car as...

    MG4 vs approved Tesla M3

    Quite interesting, considering their retail prices are not that far off. What is the downpayment you had on this? Just a bit curious as I am super into the finance/lending industry.

    MG4 vs approved Tesla M3

    The drop is only on the inventory cars. Not yet officially cut on configuration. Might want to check the financing/leasing on the inventory ones.

    MG4 vs approved Tesla M3

    This is true. I have occasionally hit my head on the doorsill getting in and out if I was in a hurry. Need to be more careful. About the seating I like a low riding position so that isn’t too much of a problem, but I am also only 28 :) I would recommend testing the boot with the golf clubs...

    MG4 vs approved Tesla M3

    Just a quick note on winter efficiency with the heat pump: My daily driving is 70km x2. In the coldest of days, -2 to 0C, my energy consumption for 70km after defrosting the cabin is usually 18% (extrapolated range: 390km) at 105kmph constant on A roads. On days when it's 5C or higher, I usually...

    MG4 vs approved Tesla M3

    When Tesla announced the price cuts, I jumped from an MG4 order to a Model 3 (Standard Range). There are a lot of minor improvements and freebies that you get in a Tesla as standard that you'd have to pay for in an MG4 that don't get reflected in usual comparisons. The price difference is of...

    New small Tesla

    Not being in the UK, I have a slightly different viewpoint. I know the MG4 and M3 are very different cars in different price brackets. But the moment you start zooming out of the UK context, which is probably MG's largest market, things look very different. I will compare the base Model 3, with...

    Price cut ?

    I've had the Tesla for about a month now. And I don't regret the decision. Granted, my budget had to be stretched considerably(25%). I gave this a fair amount of thought, too; a €2k premium is absolutely justified for the Y, and I would have also gone ahead with a Y instead of the 3. However...

    Price cut ?

    Not sure how it goes in other countries, but in Netherlands, there is no deposit required for the booking at MG. You do however, sign a contract that can be held up legally if the seller wants to do it. In my case, the dealer did try to 'threaten' me saying that I can't just cancel the car as...

    Price cut ?

    I was looking to buy an EV for long and after seeing the MG4, decided to go for it. The test-drives in Netherlands started in the last two weeks of December, and after the first drive, I immediately placed an order for a Luxury (Trophy) in Silver, that was supposed to be delivered in late...
