    Long Range Used Price in few years estimates

    Finally a car that sounds like something I can afford. I have seen people buy it for 22k which is still outside of my range but not by that far. What do you think is your estimate of price for 2 or 3 years old?

When I went to get her out she was down to 20% and asking to be charged. I’ve read about this possibility but never experienced it, last long park up...
