No, I'm sure it doesn't, I went a touch wobbly thinking it was peculier to EV's + high mileage, if it's just the way the market is for ALL second hand cars then dissapointed but there we go. Reason for the check price was my intention to upgrade to a 'long range' but the trade in price may...

so no differential EV+high mileage versus same in ICE cars

Whilst extremely pleased with my EV I was more than alarmed at the WBAC valuation recently. Purchased Nov 21 £25k, WBAC valuation £16750 Jan 23. I accept the mileage is higher than average (22k) but didn't expect such a hit. If this is peculier to EV's then deeper consideration is certainly...

Yep, trying to arrange the tariff transfer but the online '3 part' questionaire page simply clears and reverts to the top of the page,I got the girl on Octopus helpline to attempt it on her screen, she too failed, anyone else suffered this? MG EV ZS OHME TYPE 2 ANDROID

Hi all, just coming to the end of a 5p Octopus Go deal, I was considering the Intelegent option but the more I read it appears Octopus/Ohme decide when to charge leaving you in total darkness. My concern would be the storage heater/washer/dryer/dishwasher that maybe due for a run in the off peak...

Think your wrong Slipstream, listed model OR Ohme.

I have the early version Ohme, yes the set up is frustrating for the first week or two, but as Vipar says, dont over think it, Plug in and forget. My 5p Octopus deal ends in a few weeks so I too am considering the 'Intellegent' package.

Bottom line the infotainment is a pile of junk, sluggish, buggy, constantly freezes, shame, after 14months and 22k miles I'm a happy chappy especially with the fuel savings ICE £3.3k v MG £350

I've found by directing air flow to both screen and feet you can pretty much forget about 'fogging'

The price of them is to be honest outrageous, keep an eye open on ebay/gumtree etc, I picked a brand new type2 for £50 from a 'product tester' who didn't even have an ev!!, as others have said rarely used but piece of mind

Maybe of use, the figures whilst partly estimated are pretty accurate Car Date MPG Ltr / Tank Miles / tank Av Price /Ltr Cost / Tank Cost / mile Annual mileage 17500 Kia Sportage 1/10/21 to 6/9/22 42 55 500 £1.66 £91.30 £0.18 £3,195.50 Average £/ltr...

Ahhh but!! whatever the new tarrifs, I understand they will be 'frozen' for a period of time, petrol will still be subject to the oil markets

As mentioned have cross checked with Ohme and Octopus, actual kwh used/cost so assume all losses included.

99% of my charging at 5p (off peak) see what happens in Feb when my deal expires. Given I do 18k a year pretty important to me

Playing around in anticipation of elec deal with Octopus ending, cross checked with Ohme and Octopus stats so pretty accurate, Year average m/kWh taken instead of present 3.8m/kWh summer tripmeter reading, adjusted to reflect a 500mile 'tank' if you get what I mean! Appears I'm already well on...

Hi, warning popped up for above, what should be expected regarding works. time and costs and any things I should be warned of. Last time I went to a dealer ( teething problem) they warned me a £65 charge maybe incurred IF the diagnostic machine is required, Looking for a garage Wakefield /...

Did, they warn you of a 'possible' £65 charge if the diagnostic machine was required?

Suggest you do the numbers see if worth it, I do about 1200 mls/month, all local so 100% home charging ( Octopus) and all at the off peak rate so no brainer for me. ( 5p / 23p)

Cheers all, feel better hearing this

Had the car three months now and still unsure if I have an issue with brakes, everything works fine but the noise when braking appears strange. I reminds me of older cars ( from a distant time) when discs / brake shoes needed changing, a sort of metal to metal sound. Is this peculier to electric...
