I have one!

Here is my post about it copied from SpeakEV:

The car is absolutely fab thanks. Light and nimble and exceptionally well screwed together (I believe they are almost hand built in the factory - mine is one of the first RHD versions). Range is just under 100 miles - I'd say I get 75-80 miles with A/C on, and 90 with it off in eco mode. Power is incredible when you floor it - it can spin the wheels up in the dry quite easily, even when on the move!

I'm lucky in that I can charge at work - and at my local Gym so I hardly ever charge at home. So far I have done 1500miles in it and put about £2.50 of electric at home!

Only problems so far are - my partner keeps stealing it(!) and the stock headlights were pretty rubbish. I upgraded the latter with some 100% brighter Ring units, which are nice, if a little blue for my liking. Still working on upgrading the former!!! biggrin

It was road tested for The Register by a PH'er, he might be able to tell you about it.

He also managed to slip this into the review...
