The cheapest models we could find were the ‘basic’ e-tron GT quattro, and these can look comparatively plain for a car of this calibre, especially in dull colours with black trim inside.
We’d pay a little more to secure a special edition, the mighty 637bhp RS, or at least an example that was ordered with a little more imagination.
8. BMW i7
- xDrive60 Sport (2023), 49,000 miles - £43,998
Why buy? A hi-tech limousine with the running costs of an electric car.
Now the shock of that huge front grille has died down, we can all look at the BMW i7 and see that an excellent car lies behind it.
The electric 7 Series has a 106kWh battery, which gives it a 384-mile official range together with fast charging. It drives in the way you’d expect of a BMW too, yet is comfortable enough to be used by chauffeurs. Stick a cherished registration on it and your passengers will never guess you got it for half the new price.
9. Mercedes EQS
- 450+ AMG Line (2023), 16,500 miles - £36,995
Why buy? Mercedes’ EV flagship has a huge range and amazing in-car technology.
When the Mercedes EQS was launched, there was a general expectation that it would be an electric version of the S-Class, with the electric motors making it into an even more refined cruiser than the firm’s flagship. This was not the case.
The actual offering was surprisingly sporty, and buyers were disappointed, despite the car having great tech and a huge 407-mile range. It means the EQS is a rare sight today and can be bought for a third of its original £99,995 price.

10. Jaguar I-Pace
- 400 S Auto (2019), 84,000 miles - £9,990
Why buy? Jaguar’s futuristic EV is great to drive and can now cost less than £10,000.
This meant it was much more radical, with a distinctive look that crosses an SUV with a coupé. The car has been plagued with reliability issues, which has had the effect of pushing down prices on the used market. Most will have been fixed by now, which could mean you get a bargain.
