Absolutely, I'm very lucky. If I didn't have my company car then I probably would not have either the TF or the ZT as neither are practical for me on a day to basis. Mrs Simondi would have the EV as it is practical for her.
The MG 5 looks to be a good car with a longer range but as it's a new car is not cheap.

As I say I'm lucky I have a company car, if I didn't I expect I would have either a petrol or diesel Focus or similar.

It all comes down to what you use a car for and indeed what you can afford.
