    It is subjective, I agree, each to their own and all that. We get the car we like because we like it. But I do think the SE looks like it needs finishing off on the rear.. that could be because I prefer the spoiler personally

    But does it look like an Astra/Focus etc.? No. Maybe if you squint your eyes, ish.

    Still can't see your similarities bowfer, maybe except the fact it's a hatchback, and the paint is white on these ones.

    London Power Flexible plan

    They seem to hide their unit rates well I wouldn't be blindly giving them my money if they don't respond to your query within 2 working days. The wholesale cost has been falling for a while now, and from July the consumer price cap is falling by around 18% so bills should drop in line with...

    Tinted windows uk

    The front windscreen must let at least 75% of light through and the front side windows must let at least 70% of light through. There is no limit technically on the rear windows. Too low though and you'll struggle to see out of the rears at night with low visibility. I've nearly always went...

    I mean background when we're home but not cooking, but with TV on etc. Edit: Right now with no-one else home using electric it's 118w background. Edit 2: last week we used 47kwh of electric, without charging the car. Less than 7kwh per day.

    Real Cost Per Mile Of EV Driving

    We are a family of 4 but aren't big electricity users somehow. We don't use any electrical heating. Our gas usage is lower than average too, mostly. I think background usage according to the smart meter is around 300w/p/h electric. We can probably shift some home usage to the off-peak hours...

    Real Cost Per Mile Of EV Driving

    My 2p.. on Octopus standard (33p/kWh) until OHME fit our Home Charger, at which point we'll switch to Intelligent Octopus (40p/day + 10p/night) Currently getting around 4mile/kWh, which is just over 8p per mile, will reduce to around 2p per mile when on IO tariff. Our day usage will cost 20%...
