My new Long Range due October

[defeatedbythecat]

Went to the North Bristol branch today, did a test drive which only confirmed what I already knew, wanted a MG5 LR in black.

Very excited to be joining you here as an owner.

Now I need ways to keep me occupied till then

Assuming it's your first EV (as will mine be) then you have plenty to occupy yourself with in the meantime. Research into home charger points, electricity tariffs, local and distant charger points, how many providers to sign up to, how far from home you dare go on your first trip out, whether you need to swap in your Tesco loyalty card for a Morrisons one, ...

Hi,
You will to start registering for RFID cards from various providers or try the Electric Juice cards from Octopus. It covers a number of charge points and doesnt take a pre- authorisation payment it goes straight on to your energy bill.

Working out all the various providers will definitely be one of the things I can keepyself occupied with.

And the debate on which home chargers rages on!

Yes

I'd read so much and watched probably 40 videos. I just needed to actually drive it to know for sure.

I was the same.
Not absolutely sure until I'd driven it but once I did there was no doubt in my mind it was the right car.
