That was the last oil leak. I'm tired of having a combustion engine car as a city car and I'm getting an electronic one. After discovering yet another problem with the car today, I went from "we'll get an EV in the distant future" to booking a car inspection.
@sesivany Yeah, we bought first EV and when nobody wanted to drive the other, ICE, car we bought the second one 
It's not just faster, more comfortable and more reliable car but charging home instead of gas station is game changer.
I think the only area where ICE makes sense in context of personal vehicles are sport cars and even that area is getting covered by EVs like Hyundai IONIQ 5 N, performance versions of Teslas and the best for the end .. this little guy:

@bycx it is possible that I will not want to drive a diesel BMW 525d we have for long distances. But at the moment I don't see an affordable replacement. Alternatives are around 1.2M CZK which is just too much for a car that drives 10k km a year. One of the reasons why I finally decided for an EV is that the prices of used Q4 e-trons dropped to levels where it finally makes sense for us even from the economical perspective.
@sesivany That reminds me myself one year ago But we were forced a little. Our long distances car started to be unreliable and nobody was able to fix it so we replaced it for an EV first. Then it was simple math: driving the old city focused car costed twice more compared to EV and it didn't warm itself up every morning.
