Any free ones kicking about? Honda Eny1, treating it like a lease as it will be going back after the PCP term.Just use the public charging points. What you bought?
Did you get the Honda 8k discount?Any free ones kicking about? Honda Eny1, treating it like a lease as it will be going back after the PCP term.
Daughter was looking at a new Mokka ev at Bristol Street 7k off list price still 30k though. I found a 23 plate same spec with tiny miles 23k. I am a fan of ev,s in general not sure how the depreciation compares to the same car with iceHopefully none of these are private buys - dealers are losing confidence in EVs - Honda have just knocked 8k off their NY1 EV which was only recently launched - residuals are a real issue if you take the private EV route
I, along with dealer discount so was to good me nose up at. Never even thought about going electric till the deal came upDid you get the Honda 8k discount?

My decision was based around the savings I'd make on bik being able to provide the funds to buy a solar panel and battery system, which it has done.i know, i still stand by it. like i say, how many would buy one without the incentives? would you?
do you care enough about the planet to invest in it's future or is it from a purely monetary view?
i'm quite cool, calm and collected thanks btw.
tbh, i'm bored shitless and this is just passing a bit time whilst i'm laid up resting a ruptured achilles.
what time are you setting off?yep.
3hours from mine, so prob around 11.what time are you setting off?
we're setting off at 6. probably stop at tibshelf then ross on wye to stretch the legs and similar on the way back. no charging involved. the mrs will be driving with me having a dodgy foot so i'll be having a few beers on the way back.3hours from mine, so prob around 11.
But from Sunderland, according to ABRP, It would take 4h53 mins, with 16 mins of charging at Hilton park supercharger.
proper trek considering we have given up for the season so hats off to all who do it
from mine I wouldn’t need to stop on the way down no. Small stop at Newport on the way back for around 20 mins. Be dinner time so handywe're setting off at 6. probably stop at tibshelf then ross on wye to stretch the legs and similar on the way back. no charging involved. the mrs will be driving with me having a dodgy foot so i'll be having a few beers on the way back.
it's about 300 miles or thereabouts to cardiff, i presume you'd need to charge whilst at the match then again on the way back?

Citroen dealer in Crawford has two brand new/25 miles on the clock C4's,grey and red for £18k.Seems a better deal imo,long trek but it's a new car so hardly going to be any issues.

that's my point though. like i've said earlier, they were developed with the aim of saving the planet but it appears the vast majority are only getting them because of some other financial incentive. take that away and i'd wager there's be virtually none on the roads.how many would buy one without the incentives? would you?
I did.
Love it. Can't imagine buying a car that doesn't have at least a plug in hybrid ever again.
In fact, once I get this house DIY project sorted, I'm going to seriously look into the Superb PHEV as the used prices have come down to my budget now, then I can bin off the awful Smax.
And the fact the car will run for far longer than a petrol engine will this negating the need to buy a new carLet's be honest folks only buy diesel over petrol for the better MPG/savings.
Both will run forever as long as its financially viable.And the fact the car will run for far longer than a petrol engine will this negating the need to buy a new car
