A burning rag held at the air intake was a favourite on big old diesels, a bucket of burning fuel to heat the fuel tank was often needed before the advent of winter diesel which stopped the fuel 'waxing'.

It may be a good idea to renew your VED now ahead of the budget in October just in case they clobber the motorist yet again. If you drive an EV or other £0 rated car, you can renew online even if your VED hasnt run out. You go to DVLA website as normal click tax a car, tick you dont have the...

Not always, it depends on the car and configuration. BMWi3 REX for example can only be set to maintain the SOC whereas Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV can be configured to charge, maintain or use the engine.

Look for LFP battery chemistry, theyre good for 100%, some manufacturers (eg BMW i3) put an internal buffer into the battery pack so you always charge to 100% which equates to 90% in real terms.

ULEZ is ridiculous, must have clean air etc etc but if pay £xx thats ok, come on in.

Tut Tut, naughty boy................... Poor old Bojo 😂 😂 😂 Now will he have offroad parking available for his electric bike?

every day a school day, I had to look up "mendacious" :) :) :) Thank you!

Errr, really? :unsure:

I dont agree. ICE - say a diesel at 45mpg and £6.72 per gallon gives you 14.93p / mile EV - 4 miles / kWh would give you 10.75p / mile 28% less. Unless you can use a Tesla charger (many of them are now open to all makes), then you get the 43p and sometimes less. Many people are unaware...

Thats just it, I dont, there are many reports out there that reach similar conclusions. There are people like yourself the seem hell bent on discrediting anything thats out there. Ok so there is a difference in the report in total number of properties, it's still highly likely that the...

But you could have a drive down there and back just for fun 😂 😂

You have to be careful you have enough range to get to your charger 😂😂😂😂😂

Most EV's would cover that. There are some EV's that would manage that. This is good practice but often misunderstood. It will prolong the life of the batteries but they already have a life that is much better than people thuink. Ofetn quoted they need new batteries after 7 years which is...

This is the future more and more. The internet was built to be nuke proof, the concept and spec was released to the world to develop by the military. It uses route discovery so if one particular segment isnt working for whatever reasons, alternative routes for data will be found and used. The...

It sure is impressive. Thank goodness for that, something for you to worry about and condemn. Grounds for this illogical view? Almost everything we buy nowadays will have some Chinese components in there.

Not at all and I dont have a lot of money, I'm just careful of how I spend my money etc. Investing in a scheme that you had haha, yeah, right, the logic and attitude that you portray I couldn't think of anything less likely. 😂 😂 😂

I never said it would. The point I made is that the majority of homes in the UK do have access to off street parking as per all the reports I have seen. Woodieallen doubted what I said and has gone on to show that the numbers involved as in total number of houses isnt accurate in one of the...

Oh sorry, I was following your example Nah, cant be bothered, just the fact that the majority of homes in the UK have enough space for off street charging is good enough. I can park 10 cars on my drive and can charge 2 at the same time so the stats would be even more favourable if this was...

Unless you can use Tesla chargers at 43p or thereabouts.
