ID Buzz - Cancelled Order...

Forget PPM.
Just land a flat rate £250 for EV ownership.
It’ll stick money in the piggy bank without people feeling raped….

This is super alarmist. The ID buzz isn’t exactly a cheap EV. If you wanted to buy an EV to save money then you would be looking at a second hand MG. You are willing to drop £60k on a fancy car but not willing to spend an extra circa £300 taxing it.

I wouldn’t be handing over my money to the Chinese State. Buying secondhand only boosts their residual values.

As for the price of the Buzz.
This isn’t the first member to re-consider the vehicle. We can find many excuses, but the same underlying issue repeats itself.
The Price….

Read the whole thread.

Its the principle.

I get tired of paying £500 / £800 / £122 / £33000 / £620 / £345 / £1100 / £456 / £3500 / £4899, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, on you worked 7 days, etc , etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc,......... so was delighted to find out that the VED on a 3.8 ton motorhome is only £165 a year.

Just like most on here moan about dealer prices.

If I came to replace my 12year Volvo I would look to buy a second hand car with a £35 VED rate.

thats exactly what i did. 2016 Golf GTD. great cars. £35 tax. i found a 2016 plate manual with under 10k on the clock

I’ve had the same golf GTD since 2008, 180k on the clock, just keeps going.

Golf TDi club. Mk4 150PD. 278k on the clock. Unstoppable.

I'd just get the Id Buzz bought. The EV mileage tax is two years away and it will probably be cancelled as a vote sweetener.

Life's to short etc etc.

I’m just coming out of a Buzz GTX LWB to go into a Hybrid California. Its my company vehicle and the Hybrid is at a “reasonable” BIK cost , so I thought I’d scratch the itch.
I had a Buzz Style previous to the GTX, and what worried me was that the dealer didn’t want to take it in part exchange when I bought the GTX . Ended up selling it elsewhere.
Oh, and the GTX got “held up “ at the port , so wasn’t able to be registered until after the April date where they decided to add luxury car tax . Pretty sure that was a dirty trick by the government to delay so they got more money . Friends bought BMW iX3 and Porsche Cayenne at same time and were hit by similar delays.
