@AutoInfatuation @JamesMakMcKenna Starling are the most ‘sensible’ of the newer options. Been with them for my work account for 6 or so yrs I think now.

@MattTakeThree @modernheroestv Nope, that’s postcodes.

[Christopher Smith @chrsmi]

@MattTakeThree @modernheroestv D is Deeside. It will have been registered by Greenhous Vauxhall. Doncaster is Y, Grimsby will be F.

@AutoInfatuation LR Peterborough went in March. Moved Honda and BYD in already.

Duckworth's have bought Norwich JLR too.

@modernheroestv @sometimesyouwin I actually like the look of this, weirdly. If it had a bigger battery I may have been interested.

Unfortunate choice of wording here from the BBC...

[Christopher Smith @chrsmi]

@LobAllan The Scenic was a “with my head” choice last time round, it just didn’t feel particularly exciting. Also, I didn’t feel I was quite ready to enter the “Scenic” phase of my life… but you’re right, ticks a lot of boxes!

@PeterboroughCC Are you doing the tree recycling skips at garden centres again?

[Christopher Smith @chrsmi]

@habibibutter @LNER Won't let you do it til final arrival time is passed.

And then have to break down into each component part...

[Christopher Smith @chrsmi]

@LNER @habibibutter The next train out of Doncaster after is 5am... any luck finding a driver yet?

Our old lease car now up for sale. They’ve put a new Arnold Clark sticker on - took me ages to remove the one it came with 3 years ago! 😂

[Christopher Smith @chrsmi]

20 minutes later, I now know why almost every car in Scotland still has these ghastly stickers in place.

@LobAllan Lease payments on the EX30 are ridiculous. Some good deals on the Puma.

@modernheroestv @GRIDSERVE_HQ @OspreyCharging @InstaVoltUK The Google maps indicator showing on CarPlay is quite nice - but could do with showing up when en route!

@TedWelford @easycouncil The new Mini software (which is BMW underneath as the logo flashes up when it’s crashing) looks likely, but is laggy and buggy more often than I’d hope…

[Christopher Smith @chrsmi]

@modernheroestv Are we allowed to ask how much?

[Christopher Smith @chrsmi]

@modernheroestv How much are they going for at suction?

[Christopher Smith @chrsmi]

@modernheroestv @TheEvEngineer I had one for 3 weeks last summer, and it got me up to North Yorkshire ok (160 miles range I think) Rapid charging at 80kw was helpful.

[Christopher Smith @chrsmi]

@modernheroestv Oooh fun.
