Eon

Had same issue but Eon only charge you the EV rate on your statement, assuming your smart meter in your box is good. Ignore the box in your house. Mine still shows 29.9p rate 24 hrs a day. Your Eon statement will actually show you your ‘combined rate’ as well. My last one showed 19.9 p average...

I did have height on the sat nav but it now shows compass direction. How can I show the height again continuously on the bottom left of the map as I drive? Cheers m’dears

Not just car jacking but also to stop the grand children trying to get out because our driving is soooooooo bad! ?‍♂️?

Our rear tyre started losing pressure, requiring top up every couple of weeks. Turned out it was a slooooooow puncture and cost £24 to fix. All good now.

Cheers for advice. ?

Ah, so pay for registration for congestion but not ULEZ, thanks. Coming down from Yorkshire so will be A1 and prob M11. After Olympic Park we’ll be then heading down to Sutton in Surrey before returning.

Hi - looking to be in central London in February next year (Olympic Park area). Q: do I need to apply for exemption for the Congestion charge or do I just drive and forget? Q: For the ULEZ exemption, I believe I need to actually apply and renew each year, correct? Not going until Feb next...

Remember to do the maths. It isn’t all about getting a few cheap charging hours. You need to compare the cost pkw for the rest of the day and the standard ding charge and the gas charges. Compare those expected costs with say they standard rates and you’ll have a better idea if it’s actually...

Ours occasionally does similar. Be happy the car is keeping you safe. Remember to keep belting up, closing your eyes and screaming at the top of your voice in sheer terror at it's ability to stop so we’ll!

Own a v1 ZS E. I think there is a fashionable need to have LED lights. Speed limits haven’t changed in my 40 years of driving (never crashed into anything at night). The lights do me fine at 70mph on motorways and 60 on A & B country roads. ?‍♂️

Oops, hate it when it does that! !under-sealing and the weekend we bought it

Saw the Go Green YouTube video on underselling the ZS and did it the weekend the better. To be fair, the car was well sealed. I touched up the odd small exposed weld. Mainly use the waxoil spray in any small hole/opening. Probably won’t see if it helps in years to come but I’m from the 80’s and...
