Another reason to get a European car, then. Renault, VW Group or the new Nissan leaf (battery and car assembled in Sun'land).

Very stoical of you. Why worry about things you can't change? You are in the capable hands of the NHS now. I can understand that.

Sorry to hear that, mate. Good luck with the treatment Good advice! And to you and yours, hopefully possible despite your news.

Bargains to be had for used EVs as new models come out constantly. Will cost peanuts to run it if you can charge at home. No idea about the ZS specifically but good luck with your search!

Yeah, for the last 18 months or so in the UK it has been better to charge on cheap overnight tariff and export the solar during the day. That will probably end in a few years and we will go back to self-consumption. If you don't have the generous export tariff then I guess you will be trying...

I've used the type 2 much more than the granny charger (which I only used as a test before we got our wall unit fitted). Mostly used at cottages on holidays. (though perhaps the owner of the cottage could have lent us one if I had asked). The other place I use it is in the local town centre...

Others can confirm but my understanding is that if it is a UK SE it won't have three phase charging. Some early trophies had this.

Price is based on supply and demand. If MG want to have a limited edition product they have to keep them back. But they want to sell more cars, so they are importing them even if there isn't demand. These deals destroy the competition, who have to drop their prices (make a loss) or sell...

The only sustainable fuels are hydrogen (unavailable, costs a packet) or synthetic e-fuels (unavailable, will cost even more of a packet). Your comments are all over the place, mate, which makes it very hard to take you seriously.

Saw a Red at the Edison Roundabout, Dorcan just before noon. Didn't notice any other MG4s, used to see a Tango parked on Oxford Road when driving along there but didn't today. Later on saw two blacks around Chilton, Oxfordshire. One I overtook on the A34 and then it followed me for a while...

People use PCP or lease because they want a newer car than they can afford to buy with cash. I suppose it also takes away some of risk of depreciation but then the depreciation costs are built into the monthly amount so you are still paying what they assume the depreciation will be. Up to the...

I assume the concern was along the lines of this... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cwyvee57xz5o Though I suppose it would then be your car being cloned to con someone else into thinking it was a legitimate purchase. Don't want to make things too easy for these scamming scum.

Since this is an EV-focused site I just thought I would mention that EVs are very helpful dealing with the intermittency of renewables. Octopus are showing the way with their 'greener nights' score and Agile tariff which shows the link between renewable surplus and low prices. BEVs have a...

I agree e-fuels are a terrible idea. Biofuels are a scandal - US corn being used to supplement "gasoline" which means huge amount of land and water are being used to power inefficient vehicles. And it's all to push up the income for US farmers/landowners. Though I should say I was suggesting...
