Re: Discounts

Those discounts are not just EV's. The whole industry is now in turmoil as no-one is buying any cars, EV or ICE. It started at least 6 months ago with the higher end of the market.

Re: Considering a Used Enyaq Over a New One

That old chestnut.
I had mine replaced within 24 hrs of diagnosing a fault with it (or perhaps it had the same recall that they didn't tell me about) just a few weeks ago. I complained that the sunroof controls weren't working.

Re: Skoda and fixing faults, lesson in amateurish.

Thats pretty shocking. I'd start thinking about legal action.

The £500 sounds derogatory to me unless they give you a lot for your car. Ill bet yours has lost many £thousands in that time.

How is the courtesy car?.

Re: opinions please

I would question weather an EV is the right answer for you if you both work from home and wonder why you specifically want one. I have one as a company car and it was a no brainer due to the free / very cheap electric, free insurance and maintenance including tyres. If I had to pay for all these mys...

Re: Would you have another Enyaq?

I would expect fees for leasing will drop along with car prices (or discount prices) if supply exceeds demand.
