If its only once in a while you will experience some inconvenience and possibly more cost but overall an EV as you have stated will be the better and cheaper option .

    People generally like bigger numbers, bigger battery , bigger range, bigger wheels , bigger boot , I blame the old Top Trumps ( sic ) playing cards on a various range of themes , a favourite pastime in the playground.

    Rodents ate my car (well not quite but they had a go)
