  1.  @noname-gp6hk  there's plenty of fantastic modern cars around.

  3.  @DavidSmith-gb4gq  Britain has too many people and too many cars to make it work for normal people who don't/can't have home charging facilities. I lived in Norway for a couple of years, and it all worked so much better. Britain is a laughable country for such infrastructure and is a complete and utter rip off. I have seen £1 per KW do many times in UK, which makes it twice as expensive as petrol.

  4. @andrewwaller5913  You're trying to argue a stupid point. You are ignoring everything that everyone is writing to state points which no one is even disputing.

  5. @andrewwaller5913  You've ignored every point that everyone has made. On your first point range, most people don't drive more than 50 miles a day, so range isn't a problem. Secondly, to a man, every EV owner has stated that UNLESS you have a charger at home, or access to one at work, stick with a petrol. You're only arguing with yourself in some sort of rabid rage. No one is taking your car away, so stop behaving like a baby.

  6. @andrewwaller5913  Those are published statistics. The vast majority of people don't drive very far per day and very seldomly drive any real distance in a day. You can't even make a consistent argument and I'm sorry that you can't read properly. Time to stop howling at the moon pal.

  7. @David-135  That was the point Einstein. The entire point was that EV infrastructure works well in countries with LOW population density. It doesn't work well in UK because A) we have too many cars and B) we would require far too many chargers per square kilometre to be workable. If I can fill a car in 4 minutes with petrol and it takes 40 minutes to charge a car to get 200 miles then I need 10 times as many chargers as petrol pumps but in fact I might need up to 30 times as many because an EV charge is only about 200 miles and a petrol car could potentially do 600. Not that many people have a place to charge at home either compared to Norway. Norway is just more civilised and better set up for it and UK couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery. You just missed a very simplistic point.

  8. @DavidSmith-gb4gq  I actually wouldn't recommend hiring an EV. I have rented about 10 in the UK and rental agencies always only seem to stock the lowest in the range with very few options and as such you end up with a 2 ton piece of crap that couldn't pull the skin off a rice pudding. Better to try and get something that is mid or near the top of the range as this is more like what you would buy in real life.

  9. @fortheloveofnoise  You must live in America to make such a ridiculous claim (and to call an MX-5 a Miata)

  10.  @gordonmackenzie4512  too many Scottish chargers are a useless 7/11kw and cost about 65p per KW, which is a total rip off for such a slow charger. If you don't live within walking distance, then what use is something you have to wait five hours in?

  11. It's hard to imagine how a government could be last than the last one, but it is MUCH worse.

  12. ​ @XenonJohnD Did you not know that the majority of Tesla chargers can now be accessed by ANY EV?

  13. @andrewwaller5913  I was making the point in regards to the size of a population in relation to the effectiveness of infrastructure. It's a perfectly VALID comparison to state that it is very difficult to get a decent infrastructure when your population is 14X more and run by inept, idiotic Brits.

  14.  @andrewwaller5913  You missed my point entirely.

  15. @andrewwaller5913  You've just done it again. I'm not an EV person. I had an EV when I lived on Norway where it works due to a low population density and a better, more reliable infrastructure as well as a better, more respectful society who doesn't abuse such things. On the other hand, my point was why it doesn't work in the UK is there are too many cars on the road, and as such it is practically impossible to build a reliable infrastructure sufficient to result in a statistically significant uptake to EV. If you try reading before you type it really helps.

  16.  @andrewwaller5913  You reallycan't be bothered to read can you? I have already stated I don't drive an EV in this country. I have a petrol XC90. My point about the UK EV infrastructure is that it is underpowered, undersupplied and frequently out of order, and UNLESS you charge from home or work, I have been clear that you shouldn't have one in UK due also to the exhorbitant cost of public charging. Perhaps if you read better you'd have a better job and be a bit more articulate.

  17. @andrewwaller5913  So why are you trying to say I'm saying otherwise? You are unhinged. Diesel is dead too.

  18. @primafacie6442  EV's don't go on fire any more than normal cars.

  19. @andrewwaller5913  Just grow up mate. Just because an EV doesn't suit your empty and sad life (you drive a diesel FFS) doesn't mean they won't suit someone with more substantial means.

  20. @andrewwaller5913  No one claimed you could. I'm not even an EV advocate, I've been very vocal that for most people in the UK they probably aren't a practical alternative to an ICE car, but you're too stupid to read properly. I've already stated I drive a PETROL car, and a very nice one at that. The point is that your life isn't representative of everyone, and people who probably have a better life than your sad diesel driving existence might well find that an EV suits them. Keep driving your 1.2 crap 14 year old Skoda or whatever it is.

  21.  @andrewwaller5913  You haven't read a single word I have written. I have already said I drive a petrol car. Go back, read what I've written and then show me where I'm wrong.
