    Even more new jokes... (No UK Politics please)

    I’ve got an Ovation Celebrity - had it for over 20 yrs. Korean rather than US made, but very enjoyable. The main issue I find as I get older is that the bowl back design increasingly doesn’t fit so well with the bowl front design of the owner… I’m sure I recall seeing a double neck 12 and 6...

    The EV fact thread

    Merely pointing out that the comment about the insurance cost tripling was not informative without context. Was not expecting any answers!

    The EV fact thread

    Equal value? Equal performance? Compared to what was last paid on the Audi or what it would cost now? Driving record unchanged since last renewal on the Audi? I feel we would need a bit more info before we could draw any conclusions (though my own insurance has indeed gone up significantly over...

    The EV fact thread

    Apart from deducting the weight of the engine, gearbox, drivetrain… My Tesla’s unladen weight is 1850kg.

    The EV fact thread

    I’m with Dryce - this is marketing only, not substance. For example, a quote from the Kwikfit page: “A normal car battery typically weighs in at around 18kg, while the average electric car battery is around 454kg - a whole 25 times heavier!“. Just reeks of factual integrity ;)

    The EV fact thread

    Surprised by that. I changed the OE tyres on my 3 Performance for Crossclimate2s (so without the foam insert, but at the right speed and weight rating) and have had no problems; if anything slightly quieter and I cannot imagine what would make the car so bad that I needed to change brand new...

    The EV fact thread

    I'm probably in the minority here but we bought our EVs privately with actual money. We've now had the Tesla for four years and the MG ZS for over three, and we are not planning on changing either car for some years yet. They both have battery and drivetrain warranties until 2027. Having had the...

    Got flashed now waiting on the postman

    Yep - I live in that area and drive that part of the M3 regularly. 70mph (smart, so variable) northbound and 50mph (average speed cameras) southbound from the M25 for the first mile or so. Then smart again, I think until you get past Fleet. The smart sections have plenty of Hadecs cameras.

    When

    Low mileage eventually made me decide it was time to part company with my 1972 MGB Roadster. Really enjoyed owning it for the past 12 years or so, but over the last three years I only did a total of about 200 miles - so I was effectively having to spend maintenance and insurance simply to avoid...

    The EV fact thread

    I quite like the visibility in my Tesla 3, especially the cameras/screen! The screen camera display has improved a lot in the last few months

    EV's and battery damage & other woes means I wont buy one

    Canada, not US. And news articles include the following information: “Jennifer McCarthy, Hyundai Canada’s national manager of public relations, said that “comprehensive diagnostic tests were not completed on the vehicle … (and the vehicle) … was scrapped by the customer before these diagnostic...
