51kwh 156 electric GT 5dr

A great small electric hatch

Only just over a week old so early days yet, this is my initial impression. In my eyes this is a great looking car both inside and out, part of the initial appeal.
Picked it up from the main dealer (Toomey's), which was a pleasant enough experience. A great deal on the price but Peugeot are a bit stingy on the car kit. Top of the range GT but no built in Sat Nav, blind spot monitoring, adaptive cruise control, front camera and lastly as I found out after delivery no heated seats (my fault that one), so pushed the price up by another £2000. Most other brands come with these items as standard on their top models.

I got in the car and had a journey of 200miles straight away. Once settled behind the small steering wheel the seats were very comfortable and visibility was excellent. The interior is a very nice place to be in, it's full of character and quality materials unlike many others. The drive itself was very pleasant, the car handling very well and virtually silent in operation.

In summary so far I am very happy with the car, it is a step up from my previous Corsa-e in looks and interior quality, my only disappointment was the lack of standard kit.
