Half the story as usual. It went to Spain and now has a new chassis. That’s a good thing but you would never want to put that. They also gave a brand new one for 10 months at no cost to me to use whilst it was being rebuilt. You probably wouldn’t want to quote that either.
thats the MG EV that you can buy for around 20k.
I am about as far from being stinking rich as you can get, yes asset rich but cash poor.
Oh no Gromett If you claim something costs nowt and acutely cost the best part of £30-£40k clearly it is not free and there is no argument to be had. If you buy an ice car for £17k it’s unlikely you are going to spend the best part of £13-£23k on fuel over the next decade so I was not arguing for or against just pointing out it’s not FreeYou know what he meant.
When people resort to sophistry to try to win an argument it undermines their own position.
No not at all.
I did read Toyota will still manufacture Hybrid until 2035, whilst Tesla get al the big headlines Toyota did introduce the Prius late 1997 and was quite a hit in several markets, whilst they did not use Lithium Batteries (still under development)at the time they did use a nickel metal battery as it had longevity.
Just in case, like me, you didn't know what "greebling" meant, make sure you don't type "gribling" into Google like I did
They (MG) also have an Estate car about to launch ( rebadged Chinese model- but so what with a 7 year warranty)
the Corsa is going great and the wife loves it but the only niggle I got with it is its a bit tight for me getting in and out but can't blame the car as I'm a fat bastard
Yup, my point was that it is selling below the average price people ARE paying for a new car in the UK.
Currently 4kW.
You are misreading what he said deliberately to make your point.
Nope, that is a myth. There is no limit to how much solar power you can install.

No one doing under 10 a trip should not be using a vehicle !! do I understand that comment correctly ? or did I miss something ?
That article is spot on. The 4kwp was de facto as it says due to tarif, but also grid generation capacity. That’s why over 4kwp you need a application to your distribution network operator. They will asses how much you can generate, and if grid can absorb that generation. Where applicable, sometimes upgrades are necessary to deal with the extra generation. Domestic installs I had as big as 8kwp and commercial 250kwp in magna park. Wealthy client with nationwide stores. Good old times. Now if is for self consumption PV is justifiable, for feed in don’t bother.Nope, that is a myth. There is no limit to how much solar power you can install.
How much Solar PV can I have on my roof? Read the Naked Solar blog
Have you considered adding more panels to your existing solar PV array? Not all homes are limited to how much they are allowed by the local DNO. We can help
No that's because the taxpayer is subsidising it.
Neither did we .Still carried 5 bags in each hand back home 2 miles.
wind your neck in gus, the taxpayer does not subsidize the electricity I use in my EV
Told the wife she will have to walk the 4 miles to work from now on and she won't be able to come home for lunch because a sad bloke on the internet says so, her reply was tell him to do one.
I know which car I would have rather been in, and it ain't your BMW.
Its one thing to install lots of charging points but how are they going to be supplied, the grid struggles now on a cold day, and with wind power being relied on more, what happens on a cold day with no wind and a few million EV's wanting a charge. And how are the pavement parkers going to charge up their cars. Even worse what do you do with millions of used batteries when they have done their day, the pollution from them will be horrendous. And if you are getting late for the ferry and its 130 miles away and you can only do total 100 miles on one charge, you are stuffed. I will keep my good old diesel until a hydrogen option is available.I don't think there will be an issue for cars or charge points, there will be plenty of both.

Suitable vans to convert into motorhomes for those stuck at.5t who want range and payload, well thats another issue altogether.
I would have a job with 1 bag in each hand!!

Hydrogen is an emerging technology even the AA has a Hydrogen ‘get you home’ tank the negative comments are just like those pre lithium batteries for EV’s it’s a space to watch and see how developments go rather than Say never
