Real interested on advice on using public chargers in the uk. So far we have done all our charging on our home charger on shedunight rate. We plan on several brakes this summer but have no clue whatsoever. The second problem I have is I have a pacing device and I have to be careful. Any advice...

No one has mentioned that in Australia BYD had a massive recall for body corrosion after it was discovered rust around spot welds after cars had collisions.

We’ve now done 1300 miles from new no problems just the radio will lose its dab settings,that’s it, no rattles squeaks. And all this cost on a cheap night rate £23 😁

As previously mentioned the only people who would complain are those who have had problems. We have had only one fault and that was the rear parcel shelf hinge was broken. The dealer Sandicliffes Nottingham couldn’t do enough to put it right. We have had no other faults at all , but I guess...

I’ve always applied a ceramic coating myself and it’s as good as what they put on . A friend of ours worked for Toyota their cars came with what he called a £400 sponge pay £400 pounds for paint protection or it went in his toolbox. We got plenty of.😎

I’ve just been out and had look at the under tray there appears to be 3 air scoops not bulges proper scoops so there could have been a modification but we’ve only had the car 4-5 weeks so there’s still time for it to go the same way as other vehicles have suffered.

My wife has just had new front brake pads and discs at our local garage £200 cash. They said that they have replaced rear discs on a few EV and it would be a similar price.

Got carried away with my slow fingers our first new car was a Ford escort mk1

Still better than £80
