    I have no need for 7 seats, I don’t know about the Kodiak but in many cars the rearmost seats can only be used my midgets anyway.

    A lot of fuss is made about the state of UK roads, but aside from a few countries I don’t find them much worse than elsewhere. Some of the worst roads I have seen are in the US, the I-95 freeway...

    Yes, if the overall cost of owning and running the car is not much different. Even if I didn’t have a home charger, there is no way that I could run the ICE equivalent of my EV for anything like the...

    Surely range is even more important if you don’t have a home charger since a higher range means you need to need to visit a public charger less often.

    What do you consider a short journey? Many new EVs have an official range of >300 miles, likely still 200+ in the real world. The Polestar 3 I have on order has an official range of nearly 400 miles...

    That’s why the savings for someone on £150k are the same as for someone on just over £50k. There will still be a 2% rate on higher earnings, it is only the rate between the lower and upper threshold...

    Electric cars-got to be a viable option now?

    No they are not charged at the same time. We’ are on the agile tariff now but when we were on octopus go we just had the podpoint charger set to charge between 12:30-4:30 so whatever car was plugged...

    Can’t you use the charger to control the charging times? That’s what we do as we have 2 EVs so it was easier to set up the charging schedule in the charger than do it for both cars.

    You probably have both import duty and VAT to pay, so nearer 25% the purchase cost.

    I don’t think it’s new - the car needs to have a chademo plug, do any new cars even come with those now?

    Electric cars-got to be a viable option now?

    The values of used EVs have plummeted in the last 3-4 months and the Tesla S is not immune to that. Sellers have to be very realistic with their prices or they will be chasing the market down. Check...

    Some EVs seem to do much worse in cold weather than others, and a heat pump/battery conditioner or lack thereof is probably the key differentiator. My wife’s Renault Zoe has an official range of over...

    There aren’t enough chargers for it to be a competitive market yet, so the charging companies have an effective monopoly in a particular area and can charge what they like.

    Majestic is my brother's business. He is a perfectionist so you will get a good job done but probably not the cheapest and he is generally booked up a year or more in advance.

    My brother has a classic car restoration shop near Kenilworth but I think he’s fully booked for 2024. He could probably give you around realistic quote for what it might cost though.
