That's quite a price hike over the 800 (£17,970) +27%.
My view is the Le 120 and Le 200 both offer exceptional value for money at current prices. If a similar % rise is applied across the range these 'entry level' models will be significantly less attractive and I think its very likely that sales will be badly affected.
Plus, the UK £ has dropped over 8% against the euro over the last 4 days. (at the time of writing) Assuming £22,900 was set prior to this, we are now looking at nearer £24,900.
