Say hello to Herbie!

I picked up this beauty ten days ago and I am very much in love. It's even prettier then I thought it would be, there's lots of room for activities and driving this thing just feels amazing.

I noticed that there are plenty of both positive and negative thoughts about this car, people tend to have an opinion about it either way. The good ones mostly seem to be about the spaciousness and the general look and design, which I can certainly understand. There's some kind of positive quirkiness about it.

An added bonus on a personal note is the seating position. I am 1m98 (or 6'6") and have several herniated discs in my back. I had to get rid of my old car because it was way too low, causing my back to act up on longer drives. With this it's much better, I am able to drive a lot further without complaints. Also, no problems anymore if someone has to sit behind me!

Amongst the negative opinions is mileage, which I personally think is not that bad? I get around 240-245 (real) miles for a full charge, with a 79 kWh battery.

What do you think? Happy to answer any questions! Besides maybe US specific questions regarding markups or charging or something, I live in Europe so for those my answer to everything is 42.
