    Home charger joys ...err

    I've complained to EDF about their lack of transparency about my meter and they are quite happy to let me go with no penalties. I've looked at Octopus and it's not suitable for me as I've no desire to install a smart charger to take advantage of their limited time cheap rates. EDF is all night...

    If you've already got one installed you can't get another. Mine is the early type that won't speak to the new national wireless grid. There's an ongoing national rollout to convert from the old mobile network to new national wireless grid.

    Newbie , Just ordered pre reg Pimlico Blue MG5 from Vic Youngs

    Newbie , Just ordered pre reg Pimlico Blue MG5 from Vic Youngs

    Below is the webpage for the service costs of all MG cars. Every first service is £129.00. As most dealer garages charge around £45.00 for oil and filter change alone why are the EVs the same price? Even the HS hybrid costs the same and thats got an ICE and a battery...
