my sister has asked me to look at e-bikes for her. she is wanting a commuter type bike for upto about £1600.00. see the carrerra crossfirs on sale now at less than £1000, Cube Cross Pro Hybrid for £1350 at Trendz. anything else to consider? Anyone got one of the above?

Also seen the Orbea Katu ebikes. Some of these look good.

Make sure it has integrated lights and mudguards for commuting. She may also want a pannier rack. Batteries are really important for electric bikes. It is a big part of the price and pain. Remember to budget for a helmet, lock, gloves, waterproof trousers, and glasses if she is new to commuter cycling.
Lots of advice on Pedelec forum.

Make sure she gives it a test run.

Batavus Diva E-go?

Have a look at Batavus in general for quality/reliability I rate them highly.
Also Kalkhoff
