Whilst it is nice to have a car that is a looker, unfortunately the looks are for other peoples benefit. As the owner my time is spent inside. :D Which curiously brings me to steam trains. I have spent my money to travel on heritage steam trains before but I seriously wonder why. The whole...

You need £5 on the account to start a charge, however when I tried to top up the minimum was £10.

OMG is this competition for the most prodigious posts still happening ???

It's OK to say you like the look of a car, regardless of power train, try not to feel guilty about it. :D

A very similar journey, early ZS, then MG5 and then a move away from MG, for me to a second hand Hyundai Kona (again not exactly for the looks!). I did like the look of the MG4 but my wife (short a***) couldn't have lived with those wide door sills for getting in and out !

Wrong ? Scheduling perhaps, planning no. :unsure:

I just like gadgets and saw my Gen 1 ZS EV as a new toy. 🚙 (also our only car, went all in)

You are correct, short journeys with the heating on will kill the range. The heater is constantly trying to get the car up to temperature as opposed to a longer journey where once it's up to temp it only needs to maintain it. The GOM will only predict based on the recent history, and it is only...

My solution is slightly different, if you're cold in the car, turn the heater on - solves 2 problems, being cold and condensation. Thank heavens cars these days have moved on from the days when you couldn't do that. I also remember waking up at home with ice on the inside of the windows, again...

Do you use an app for the Rolec ? I use ev.energy for mine and when I've had issues I contact them and they have looked into it.

Same here in Leeds. Anything that can be recycled in one bin(green), garden waste (brown) in other and what's left in another (black). Glass used to be separate but is now combined with the rest of the recycling, recycling facilities can now cope.

re OBD dongle software, most use CarScanner. Free version is good, only a small price to upgrade to Pro.

So many variables it's almost guesswork and probably easier to work out what works best for yourself. Different cars have different set ups, amount of regen and levels of regen, when do the friction brakes take over, some individuals have heavy feet others don't, etc. etc. I'm sure given...

or anything else 😂
