    First long road trip and other adventures.

    Same here, but I never used the M62 to head north on the M6 travelling from Leeds. As @Rolfe says a complete no-brainer. From Leeds to the junction of the A65/M6 there is a difference of about 38 miles (64 - 102) more if using the M62 and at higher speed (sometimes) so less efficient. From...

    Bored ?..... do this !

    I think we have the wrong definition, you have not lost anything, it is merely the cost of having something you either love or need. If for example I go to the cinema I don't consider I have lost the money. * This is supposed to be a re-assuring post.......now how much have you lost on all the...

    First long road trip and other adventures.

    The A65 is quite an economical section, obviously of course due to the slower speeds. :D It's really the only sensible choice when intending to travel between the M6 and West Yorkshire.

    The M62 can be a battery eater crossing the top.:) Done Leeds to the 'far side' many times.

    Pay per mile. Another blow for EV drivers

    Where have you read this, all I've seen is a government denial. Doing a search anything that suggests a tax is dated way earlier this month when first reported by the Telegraph.

    Membership is here! Enjoy 25% off charging with GRIDSERVE Plus!

    Reminds me of when the Gridserve Braintree forecourt opened in 2021 and Robert Llewelyn interviewed Toddington Harper and others there and they discussed pricing. See this clip I extracted from the full video to reveal cost of rapid charging four years ago. :eek...

    Membership is here! Enjoy 25% off charging with GRIDSERVE Plus!

    Yep, doesn't look a bad offer but as their prices are high to start with it brings it down to reasonably good. Normal price at rapids 82p/kWh to 89p/kWh at all locations so with the 25% discount 64-67p. Roughly 35 to 45 Kwh charging pays for the months subs.

    Archev's adventures in the Berlingo

    I had this when I replaced the 12V battery, it reset all the odometers and consequently after the first mile or two it showed a very low 'accumulated' mi/kWh average. It did recover to normal fairly quickly in my case and yours is taking a while so maybe not the same cause. I was quite annoyed...

    Quite. There are reasons for red tape and bureaucracy certainly within the financial world. Imagine if a mistake were to be made and all of a sudden your money disappeared or you weren't able to access it. I'm sure we can all remember times when various banks had IT problems and people were...

    EV charging at Center Parcs ?

    As I have said many times, once we have had our cars for a while we know better than any app when we will need to stop for a charge. All we need to know is where are the chargers nearish to that location.

    The sweet spot

    And I totally agree with that sentiment, however I can't agree that making something like a motor more efficient is pushing efficiency beyond the economic optimum. As the motor does not affect anything other than the cost of it in a vehicle are Tesla motors so much more expensive than others to...

    The sweet spot

    Very true, however you can put the same efficient Tesla motor in all of those or you could put a less efficient one in. My choice would be for the Tesla variant. Tesla car batteries vary between roughly 50-100kWh and body shapes for S,3 X and Y, but still an efficient motor. Why would you choose...

    Tomato Energy

    They may have their details on a database but it is not the BG database. What sort of database is it? What details do they have and are they the same details? Are they in the same format? Are they complete? New processes have to be written to do conversions and the new data has to be integrated...
