@AvonandsomerRob And people still sit in their cars idling outside the Skool gates ???

Lots of queueing for petrol and diesel along the M5 corridor this evening. Motorway prices past £1.80. What's the situation like in your area?

@graeme_cobb @notaguru3 On my daily travels today I had 5.8 kWh/mile . If only I had a 100+ kWh battery in my Model4 ...

@notaguru3 Exactly

Jim shares his thoughts on a new, compelling EV launching later this year👇

@AvonandsomerRob Do you mean British Roads 🤔 They are Bad !!!

I'm seeing more Chinese EVs on British roads than any other 26 plate vehicles. Are they any good?

@olddiesel And Hybrids are eligible for the UK Ev grants also ??

Noteworthy (to me)....... No manufacturers "pulling away from EVs" are pushing the idea of running the hybrids or whatever. On synthetic fuels or hydrogen or whatever...... Noteworthy like I say......

So Petrol cars are eligible for the Electric car Grant !!!

@HazelAppleyard If he can't seem to "shake it" then it is too small 😊

There is no recovering from this 😭

@modernheroestv @hjwakerley 350k is that Pounds or Pence ??

@hjwakerley 🫡 knocking on the door of 350k with these two.

700,000+ miles between my two daily cars. You really don’t need a brand new car every three years.

@iam_jlc Have you taken your break yet 😊 .

Small Prophets is the best thing on television. If you haven’t discovered it yet, I envy you. It’s the most uplifting, life affirming show I’ve seen in a long time. In a cynical world, it is a joy.

@autocar Charge port cover,looks like it can double up as a rain shelter ???

REVIEW: Can DS rewrite the luxury saloon rulebook again? We've driven the unusual new No8 saloon-SUV - and we're impressed... buff.ly/MW8llJ1

@thefordprefect @Synchronicity34 Rav 4 is over 40 thousand pounds,so will incur Luxury car tax . Mate at work as a CHr,he wanted the larger petrol version,but that also would have taken it over 40 Grand .

@amdmad70 @Synchronicity34 Not true ! very similar price depending on sale price - just search for "toyota rav4 and tesla model y road tax"

Please, please, please be stupid enough to believe that buying a Toyota hybrid is a better option than buying a #BEV !!! 🙏

@mellon_heads He's more remembered over here as Yosser "Gissa a job" Hughes ...

Fans and critics heavily criticized the 2025 #Oscars for omitting actor Bernard Hill from the "In Memoriam" segment following his death in May 2024 at age 79. Despite starring in two of the most-awarded films in history, Titanic (Captain Smith) and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (King Théoden), he was not included in the televised tribute. I assumed that they would include him this year but honestly, I am shocked that he was again left out of the memoriam. RIP Bernard Hill, one of the great actors of our generation. Hail the victorious dead!

@gsmales Will the front Grill/lights have eye effects ???

This is more than disappointing. It would look better with the narrow kidney grille from the new iX3 to provide some retro appeal. From every other angle, it could be literally anything. #BMW #BMWi3

@RonnieTemplar @GBNEWS And yet their sales are going up each month !!!

@GBNEWS I won’t buy an electric car! They are horrible!

Vauxhall unveils new Astra with 'unique' offer including £500 for drivers switching to electric gbnews.com/lifestyle/cars…

@DrMoragKerr @eV_Newt Early 2nd gen Ford Mondeos were notorious for snapping their coil springs ...

Read the article, and realise that it says nothing of the sort. It only says that suspension issues cause a significant proportion of MOT failures. No figures given as to whether EVs are disproportionately affected, merely one commentator's speculaton.

@HullTeslaModel3 @danwootton Don't think it is !! It's only 8 episodes, Guy Ritchie was involved .

@amdmad70 @danwootton I keep seeing it on one of the services we have... don't fancy it 😁 Sharon keeps suggesting we watch it. How woke is it?

The worst movie I’ve seen in the past year.

@HullTeslaModel3 @danwootton Young Sherlock Holmes was a good series ..

@danwootton Usually the case for us! Highly awarded movies are generally the worse watches! 😁

@CARN0N @changlelu Our MG model 4 has this. Sit on drivers seat power is on . Press The Brake pedal and the car is fully awake and ready to drive .Exit car but don't lock it,half power mode,radio,heater stay on ..

@changlelu Sure, but every other time you get out of the car on your own, it turns itself off automatically and locks.

I will never understand the need for a Start/Stop button in a EV 🤦

@WorldByWolf Will he cut VaT on food at the Supermarkets also ???

Starmer is claiming that fuel companies are price gouging. They’re not. In fact, 50-55% of the price you pay at the pump goes into the pockets of His Majesty’s Treasury. If Starmer wants to provide relief at the pump he should cut taxes not make up fake excuses for price rises.

@graeme_cobb @aygomyownroad Talked to cab driver when 1 picked us up tother day, he says he gets 250 miles from his ...

@aygomyownroad This is getting around 230 miles at around 5°C in winter and 280+ in summer.

Our MG ZS EV 72 kWh is three years old, but what do I think about it? You’ll have to look past my chins to find out
