    Maybe in UK?

    There is a second hand market where I live (Czech rep), but it’s still not cheap. We’re traditionally a country where others’ used car end up. Same with EVs, but re-sellers ask a premium for this “brand new technology” and yada yada yada… The cheapest of Swasticar model 3 (first production year 2019, with over 200k km, smaller battery) I could find is over £15k. Kia EV6 similarly aged and (ab)used? Hand over well over £20k…

      That sucks, but could you buy in a neighbouring country. If you save enough it could be financially worth it.

      Obviously UK would be of no use. Stearing wheel in the wrong place.
