That is basically my reason when I was 66 taking my pensions two years ago however I didn't retire until last week :) I'm now wondering why I went two years over my retirement.

Simple question, was it at the top of your list? I didn't and it comes nowhere on my tick list.

In another thread I mentioned my first ever Range Anxiety problem. I had 60 miles to get home and around 78 on the display but I'd been watching it slowly get shorter and no way would I have enough. I thought what would I do in my ICE car so I dropped to Cruise Control at 60mph and when I got...

I've also found that Cruise Control at a lower speed gives you way more if you keep your foot off the accelerator.

As the title. When I bought the car it was 100% charged with 289 miles on the clock Trophy 64KWh. Of course I know that driving habits change this figure drastically but now in Winter I'm sure I'm getting way below what I should be getting - 100% charge with 195 miles. Of course the heating...

What a coincidence. The only time in 15 months I wanted to charge I stopped off at Leicester East. I'd taken a wrong turning which put me 60 miles out. No worries I'll stop at Leicester East and ask somebody what to do :) There were no chargers so for the first time ever range anxiety set in. I...

That did happen to my wife once but luckily nothing behind her.

What else do you disable besides LKA?

What exactly do you mean by 'sorted out' and undriveable? Are you on about the Lane Keeping Assist? I leave it on because it's less of a problem with updates but the wife always turns it off.

I'm getting some great schedules

All my bosses ended up coming from there after that. Back on track, we have quite a few staff at RSUH with MG4's but I cycle to work for the last 15 years :)
