Description
This matt black wrapped BMW i3 is the range-topping version with all options (read below) and also a range extender petrol generator on board. The electric range is around 75 miles and comes with a petrol tank that gives about 65 miles of further electric range. You don't need to fear about running out of charge/battery, the petrol engine starts and provides charge to batteries. Congestion charge is free, parking for electric vehicles is free almost everywhere in London, some places free while charging. i3 has privacy glass sides and rear. Don't be fooled, this car is really really quick, it will leave most cars on road in the dust. Apart from teslas, nothing will beat you off the line on a red light. Being the range-topping version it is very luxurious as well. Covid-19 Update: *I am a germophobic myself so be rest assured. This car is thoroughly cleaned and professionally disinfected before and after every trip, for your safety and mine* *Each person will be given a new Sanitizer gel bottle, gloves and new masks before every trip* BMW i3 Options: - Added Rapid Charging Upgrade: 100% battery in 40 - 45 minutes - Big 10.3 inch display with navigation, music apps like Spotify, digital radio and more. Wood dashboard, 10 speaker Harman Kardon Speaker set up. - Auto-Park: The car will park itself in a spot, controlling brake, accelerator and steering wheel - Self Driving: In cruise control, the car will do all the work for you on the motorway - traffic jams, controlling your distance from cars ahead, steering wheel, accelerator, brake and speed. - Heated Seats - Leather seats all around - 3 driving modes - Digital driving display - Range Extender (REX) model - All charging cables provided You will love your time with this car! Its a really fun - cheap to run - a luxurious car. I would recommend taking the extra of 'Pre-paid refuel' option, its only £10 and this means that you don't have to worry about returning the car at full charge and full fuel.

Guidelines
Dogs are welcome, I have my own dogs as well and I love them but please return the car clean. The car does not need to go in full detailing, just return in the clean state it was handed to you in. I won't be too fussy about it. If you do not have the time or don't wish to clean, check out my extras option list and you don't have to clean the car.
Faqs
What is the range on a single charge?
Total Range is around 200 miles. The electric range is around 70 miles, depending on your driving (Eco Pro+ mode). However, being the "REX" model, my i3 has a trick up its sleeve, when the battery runs out the small petrol engine onboard starts and gives charge to the batteries. This provides around 65 miles more and another 65 miles with extra fuel on board. So you never have to worry about finding charging stations or fear running out of battery. Simply add petrol and get going!
Is this car a hassle? In terms of charging, finding chargers?
No, absolutely not. You enjoy all the benefits of an electric car without any fear or worry that comes from an electric car. Even if you run out of charge and do not wish to charge, you can run the car on petrol only. You would still get around 65 MPG, I have done this myself too. You will still be able to drive around 130-140 miles with one visit to the petrol station.
How long does it take to charge? 0% to 100% battery
Depends. - 40 minutes from rapid charging. - 1 Hour 10 mins from fast-charging stations (these are everywhere from public car parks, streets, shopping centre/supermarket car parks) - 3 hours from 3kw home charger, these are the small units that are placed in your home - 6-7 hours from a 3 pin charging from a wall socket in your house. there are 0 to 100% charging times, you'll never charge from 0, it'll usually be from 5-10% at least which means it'll charge faster than the times stated
How do I charge the car? Are the cables provided?
3 options: 1. Rapid Charging (motorways and some car parks) 2. Fast Charging (all supermarket, public, off-street car parks) 3. 3-pin Home charging (plug it in where you plug your kettle, simple!) This car only runs on petrol, so don't worry too much about the charge.
