Back to the wheel question. I wondered if there was any aero hub caps available like Tesla use? Could be a more reasonable cost than whole wheels?

Anyone seen what to expect on this for octopus intelligent? Had an email about normal tariff today but not intelligent.

if it’s available with the long range battery and boots bigger I think I’ll be trading in.

As a counter to this. I am a reasonably high mileage driver 20000 a year. My increase in electricity and my loan repayment costs less than my old fuel bill (previous Kia ceed 1.6 diesel estate vs mg ev5) and in 2 yrs I’ll own the ev5 so gets a much better deal then. Plus insurance, tax, service...

2 yrs old 30000mile service SOH was 98%. Mainly 80mile return commute over the Brecon Beacons. And mainly charged at home.

Long range was given a weight rating and works well. Seem to remember short range originally being no rating then later getting a 30kg rating. Hopefully someone will confirm for you.

Has anyone got these on their ev5? or found some that would work? actually any improvement on efficiency?

Had mine done today. Ended up paying a service plan for next 3 yrs. £430 for this year and next 2 years.

Mines booked in for 2nd service 30000 for £210 next week.

Work shifts 2 days 2 nights 4 days off and commute 80miles return for each of those shifts. April may June was mostly solar only. Been a bit dismal the last couple of months though.

Still working well for you? where did you find that sells the s9 all bits I've found seem to just list it by car not numbers. got a link?

I thought it was the long range exclusive has 75kg roof weight limit. the standard range had a lower limit. Good family car. Fits me the mrs the baby and the Labrador in and have done a few camping trips with it to. A squeeze compared to old van but deff manageable.

Some are deff a higher risk than others (but recalls on many of the supposedly better names) and maintenance can indeed reduce the risk. But still one of the highest risks in the home.

Can’t go on octopus go as use octopus agile export for solar. Also I’m a fire fighter. So very strongly recommend against using tumble dryers over night.

Guessed it was going to happen sooner or later and can’t blame tescos for it. But does make me wonder what’s the point of the 7kw chargers now as local Tesco has a 90min time limit. So would only get 10kw top up max

There’s myself and another blue around Abergavenny (I’m regularly in Neath and cardiff to) see a few about but by no means common.

Moved to octopus agile beginning of year been averaging 19p/kw pay back.

I’ve never had a problem on my long trips…. Until the last one weekend away started fully charged. Got to destination on about 35% (160 miles) competing that day then drove to accommodation) and then for food putting me down into the 20s. Next day went to Morrisons in morning plugged in clicked...

Mate got a Tesla just after I got my 5 and his has way more toys and it’s the quick one so silly fast but way less comfortable for commute. And so far this year I have spent 380 hours in my car so I deff made the right choice.

I have my 1 yr old in with rear facing seat every day loads of room. Regularly have my 2yr old niece in back to. Regularly have large buggy and my Labrador in boot. Personally prefer the look of an estate over a hatchback and see hatchbacks as a silly compromise. But that’s prob more to do with...
