No I wouldn’t get another EV until the public charging infrastructure is better (maybe having a Tesla would improve things?) . 3000 miles in 6 (or maybe it’s 7) weeks has shown that public charging is a PITA. Just back from a challenging 2 day (450 mile) trip, using M11, A1, A15. Had similar...

I must need to revise my driving style having seen (on other threads) that people are managing mid-high 4’s on the miles per kw. We did 12 miles on the a15 behind a horse box, average speed showed as 42mph (max would have been 50). No air con, 12 degrees temp and showed 3.8 miles per kw. Our...

Currently on the A1 (having done A12 and M11) and left home on 100%. After 98 miles was on 50% so around 200 to empty. Only 8 degrees and all dual carriageway so not optimal, but even so quite a significant drop on he 270 mile range it showed as we left home.

Yup the emergency braking happened within the first week of ownership (Trophy with rear wiper model). Wife was driving about 30 in a 40 zone and next minute car was in neutral, handbag was in the passenger footwell (had been on seat), and the wife was a bit bemused Thankfully the car behind was...

Try and avoid fast public chargers as I was paying 79 p per unit on the A1. Assuming 4 miles per unit that is £79 for 400 miles (i am averaging 3.6 but hopefully you do better than me as it’s £87 for me). Slower chargers will be less so you should do ok…and other running costs should be lower...

My thoughts after 6 days and 510 miles with my MG 4 Trophy: It is very orange (but then I guess I knew that...though they had black roofs when I ordered, but now they just come in one colour) The fit and finish is better than I expected. It got some hard plastics but nothing bad, especially at...
