When has sense ever been of primary concern around here!
You may not be wrong though, I have looked into getting something more sensible as commuter and I've sort of ended up at the Mazda MX-30 or Honda E as both would be perfect for my 168km round trip commute but I'm beginning to think that if I strip back the immediate scale of the refurbishment on the Forester to just tidying up the shell and getting the engine out and motor and batteries in it might work out to cost about the same?
Sadly there's just no such thing as a cheap car in Ireland at the moment and my cheapest options are either a well used i3 or Nissan Leaf... both will still set me back €20k :(

I would think that it would be cheaper (overall) to buy a BMW i3 and a turbo EZ36, but that of course is neither here nor there.
