In reply to Steven. Exactly especially when VW once dominated the CN market for decades with few alternatives

In reply to Crocodile Pete. When it comes to electric vehicles, buying brand new is for those with more money than sense anyway.

In reply to KNC. The only people who complain about them being too cheap are the European manufacturers and the politicians on their payroll.

In reply to Steven. CN price for Atto 3 (Yuan Plus) is £12K, Chinese cars sell for more in the EU/UK and still get complaints they're tooooooo cheap. If they really wanted to flood the market they could easily.

I would love to buy this vehicle but as an aged pensioner we have all been costed out of the market so a much cheaper (used car) will have to do

In reply to megood2. The UK already has low import tariffs. Short term greed is the problem.

This vehicle should replace the Atto 3 (Yuan Plus) in Europe. The Atto 3 is too expensive for what it is, lacking the maturity and sophistication needed to justify it's price tag. This SeaLion 05 seems to have both of those qualities in spades.
