Super helpful service. Highly recommend if you are looking to switch to an electric vehicle. I was quite vague about what buying or owning an electric vehicle involved and so needed a lot of support to get started. I bought a used Mercedes e Vito from them earlier this year and it has been brilliant. The team helped me to decide what I needed and have given me great support and ongoing advice from start to finish. I initially had a chat to discuss my budget and specifications and was able to look through all the options. Because I was purchasing a van for my business, I was on a tight timetable and it was immensely helpful to be able to tap into Paul’s industry expertise and to get the purchase made. My van came immaculate, fully charged and ready to drive. They also checked in with me after a few weeks to make sure that everything was going well. One of the most helpful elements was being able to get all the facts and dispel some of the myths and fears around electric vehicle ownership. As well as the vehicle the team supported me to set up home charging, ensure that I had everything I needed. Before I made the purchase, they talked me through the logistics and costs of charging, the kind of trips I would be making as well as helpful explanations such as how the range varies in different temperatures. This team is 100% set up to help make customers feel confident about making the switch and to getting a great vehicle that works for them. Definitely support that made a difference!
Paul and his team have a great knowledge of electric vans and the electric van market. With a wide range of products on site, I was able to test and compare. Paul also helped me understand the numbers and financial benefits, having had no prior experience with electric vehicles. Would highly recommend them!

As you know I don't really do cars! As the team at Kia UK loaned me this vehicle to put through its paces on a 1100 mile round trip with 7 people, luggage, difficult terrain and the usual family squabbles I thought I had better cover this VERY capable vehicle in a little video! So lets give you some stats first: Battery - 99 kWh Range - Official -313 (see video for real world - pretty impressiove all thiings considered) BHP 378 Seats - 7 comfortably - (nobody was squished!) Price - Around £75k Spec - GT Line Dual motor Equipment - Lots!! Too much to mention - Felt high end and luxury! Me and the family had a great time with this vehicle! It went anywhere I pointed it and we did a long off road (Forestry tracks) journey and it was masterful. It also ate up the Motorways and was effortless here! The video only tells half the story as it was actually a family holiday and not a full on review but feel free to ask any questions!
