AMercedes makes the A series for upper middle class
Phahahaha i fucking hate these guys
KAh well that's down to individual income and I guess where you live. I pay very little for my insurance, since I have 20+ years with zero accidents for instance.
Ei cant cough up 400-500€ a month rn for a car's insurance, road taxes, fuel, repairs and maintenance
ACosts around 50% more than the equivalent Hyundai and has heated seats
CDelete this
Kyeah thats a lot.
Pi love how all 4 tyres on it are space savers
Eim 22 and i have zero damage free years cause ive never had a car on my name
Pgot the space-miser v 4
Emost cars are 150-250€ a month in insurance alone for me
Pnot rated above 80km/h
Kidk how it works where you live, but where I am just having a license gets your merits yearly. We have a merit/demerit system, so you get one merit a year for each clean driving year. Goes up to 20. Rates go down as merits go up.
Ewe dont have that here
Einstead by age 24-25 the insurance suddenly drops a month compared to 23 and younger
Otbh if I had $100k to spend on a vehicle I'd be paying a mechanic to retrofit an old 2000s car with a hybrid drivetrain
KRough. But if you're in Europe you probably dont NEED a car anyways
Kpublic transit doesnt suck there generally in my experience
Eive been commuting by train to my college for nearly 4 years now
Eotherwise i always bike
KSadly I live in a frozen wasteland, so vehicle is a must
KYeah I'm not biking in -40c 
Oseeing NotJustBikes vids fills me with jealousy
Eyeah i bike in like -10c at worst
Oso much good urbanism over there
Eand i stop taking the bike at 25c
Pcoward
Eabove 25c its too dangerous for me
Rabout two years ago i fucked up my ankle in an accident (coincidentally with one of those rental e scooters) and have had an e-bike since. big recommend
Reverywhere i drive is uphill and upwind
Rdownhill*
KI just checked, I'm paying $470/yr CAD (at a 45% discount for clean driving record) for car insurance.
Kand $25/yr for my license.
Ei wanna get this one configured like this
Ei currently have their older model in the non-electric version
AWhen the weather is perfect?
KI want to get an ebike for warm seasons myself.
E30c makes me want to die
KI melt at 26c. My AC is kept at 17c indoors.
E25c is fine for walking but not biking
A25c is perfect weather in greece
AAfter 33c you begin to melt
Eideal weather for me is 13.78C exactly
Eoh yeah youre greek
Owhere I live it hasn't been below 25C in several weeks
KOcean winds probably help that
Eim jealous of your food antheas
