Just spotted this. Chargeplace Scotland to be brought under private ownership | Autocar While the network has definitely improved under SWARCO, will devolving operations down to local council level be the way forward or a huge step back?

Regarding Glasgow CC, let's be honest. They don't want any cars in the city, EV or otherwise.

The DNO will know if it's a looped supply or not. My house had a single cable, but I was on the end of the loop...

Depends on whether it's a refundable deposit. It was Enterprise who supplied my last hire car, and they required a deposit they'd refund as long as the car came back in the same state it went out in. Any other insurance upgrades were optional, from what I can remember.

My ZS has been in multiple times over the last 2½ years, and the official line I've received every time is that MG will not authorise a hire car until the dealer has diagnosed the fault AND it has to wait for parts. (And sometimes they even cock that up). If you get a hire car outside of those...

I bought an Ohme Pro from Smart Home Charge just a few weeks back. They had some decent reviews, responded to my messages (which other installers either ignored, or replied with "yeah, give us a call"), had the entire survey/ordering system online and easy to follow, and weren't horrendously...

Well that's kinda knackered my plan for the new year 🤦‍♂️

Depends on the insurer. I asked about tinting my ZS, and LV said it would add around £50 to my total premium. Others have had no change

My parents built a new garage when they moved home (because the one that was already built was a sod to get in to). It's never housed a car unless it was miserable outside, and the car needed work done. The rest of the time, it's been a storage area for motorbikes and any other stuff that...

It's a bit like when lots of folk swapped from smoking to vaping. Is it 100% harm free? No. Is it less harmful? That depends on what you class as harmful, but on balance, probably. Doesn't make it perfect, but every little helps, as the ads say...

Oh dear...

"Network operating in a stable manner" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 aye, right. It's been flakier than an ice cream van of 99ers since the get go.

Should watch to some of the videos Auto Expert produces. He doesn't have much good to say about the Aussie government :LOL:

As someone who's had drunken nutters get in my car whilst parked, I'm a +1 on autolocking being a good thing. The "but they might not open" argument could equally be applied to seatbelts if you need out in a rush, and I don't know many that would support never using them. Doors should...

I generally always use the brakes for the first miles, just to clear the crud off from overnight parking. Haven't noticed any issues so far at 11k miles.

As said above, junk is a strong word. I wonder how you came to this conclusion? I haven't heard of any MGs randomly falling to pieces at the side of the road, nor collapse into a pile of rust (both things that Fords were well known for, as well as countless other "upmarket" brands). The...

Apologies, you and Alb were both right. I'm blaming daft early start times for that 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️😴😴😴

Could always ask you supplier to upgrade you to smart meters... that's how I found out all the problems with my supply (fused neutral, looped supply) coming from when the installer pulled the main fuse. Was then passed to the DNO who ended up replacing the cable, and giving me an 80A fuse.

As per the title, wondering if anyone has any recommendations regarding fitting a charging unit. My original choice of a Hypervolt unit was met with almost total apathy from the companies I emailed, with only one reply, and that was to say they would only reply to a phone call 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ Just...
