Hi guys

My names James from London.
Looking at getting an Atom at some point next year. Any advice when looking.

Hi James, also your side of the pond waiting for delivery though based in sunny Coventry...

Whilst hunting for insurance which is a very reasonable 460 quid they did state I had to have a tracker, so maybe worth checking to see if that's a requirement for you too...

Thanks for letting me know. Think I'd get tracker anyway. I'm probably 6months away from shopping for one as I have a wedding to pay for and a loft conversion so I have some time. Did you order yours from Ariel (new)

I did as it seemed to make financial sense, the residuals are so strong.. never had a new car before either so thought this was a good place to start.. I would say Tom at the Ariel factory has been incredibly helpful, I was on a very tight budget and desperately wanted a few things ticked so although I didnt end up with a supercharger (something I can do later) I did end up with the right car for me

If you havent driven one yet get yourself booked in for a test with the factory - some nice places to stay in that part of the world too... though I would advise only do this if you are going to buy - the acceleration is brutal and you will want it immediately after the drive

Thanks for the feedback. I will defiantly get down there for a drive next year at some point. Or tap you up for a drive when yours arrives. 😉
