Introduction from UK - Pondering About a GV60

[CRMS]

My heart says go for one; my head says don't be so silly. It would be a private purchase with no employment assistance
I've a perfectly good 8 year old low mileage, economical ICE - UK Golf MkVII Bluemotion Match 1.0TSI with a gorgeous two tone light, bright leather interior matching the original metallic red paint and light grey interior. But it would be good to have a bit more boot space. Should anything catastrophic happen to the car, I'd be getting an EV. I've studied quite a few EVs but a coalmine interior is a no no - which rules out most. GV60 ticks all the boxes - size, interior, range, charging rate and seems to technically suit my requirements - park with EPB off in Alps to stop pads freezing on or rusting on, lay up under cover for a few months in summer, isolate HV battery, remove 12v battery etc etc.
A quandry!!

Welcome aboard! And thank you for signing up. I'm glad you found us. There's lot of reading you can do to help make your decision about moving to a Genesis GV60. Are you seeing many Genesis vehicles in the United Kingdom?

Thanks. Can't say I've seen any. First will be a test drive next week. I wondered how "white" the white interior is? or is there a hint of grey in it?

That I'm not certain about, but try asking in the GV60 section as that's where the owners are.
