There is huge demand for new and used BEVs at the moment. Which is a good thing, but prices are crazy. Can’t see them calming down for the next year or two.
Project 45 was the post concept car pre main release of the I5.
I reckon I could flip this car tomorrow and make five grand. Not a chance! There are certainly lesser spec ones out there with not the power or trim and multiple k's on them asking for more.

You're telling me! Shes even brought up the topic of a small electric car to replace the aging diesel focus we use as a second car - I've said theres not much in the way of budget BEV market at present but shes said she will watch the market "as it will no doubt continue to develop over the next few years"
My gast was well and truly flabbered I can tell you!

I learned many years ago to listen to every single thing she says. Parts of their brain work in ways ours don't.

There have always been games played over energy. Even on my darkest thought day I don't think I get to bottom.

The price of electricity seems to track FF prices. Unless the wind blows that is…
There's always sabres to be rattled, keep a state of fear in place and support the despots with hands on taps...
Sorry, I'll get my coat. That was almost politics.

I went past a garage today and it was £1.53 per ltr for diesel and I think £1.47 for petrol. £6.68 for a gallon.of petrol. 30mpg is 22.2p per mile. I'm paying 5.5p per kWh tonight and peaked at 3.7miles per kWh yesterday. 1.486p per mile.
A 93.3% reduction in that scenario. Hell even Ionity 350's only charge 6.48p per mile. I'll do 700 miles in the next couple of days...
£33.81 in the EV vs petrols £155.86! If I did it all from home the cost would be £10.40.
Och, EV's are crap, bloody Hippies!
It beggars belief that these scenarios exist side by side in the same place.
