Any i3 drivers in the UK?

We are just looking in to the i3 for me and my wife, so just looking to get some real-world thoughts from any UK drivers?

I suppose anyone can help me answer the question of what the likely range is using the car for a commute on rush hour motorways (freeway for you Americans!) is?

My wife's commute is 45 miles each way with no chance to re-charge, so we're going to need the REx, but would be good to know how often she would actually need it.

I was just going to post something similar although my wife's commute is about 34 miles each way.

Also does anyone in the UK have any PCP numbers?

Cheers

Yes, some finance figures would be a good place to start. I've sent an email to our nearest dealer to request a test drive.
