That is a masterpiece of planning & driving! Wow!! Your route is similar to mine, but you were a bit more adventurous in your stops! Brilliant.

My PCP ends soon and I am keeping it, the MG5 LR Exclusive that is. Yes, the paper value is less than the balloon payment but . . . . I've added tinted windows, Tesla upgrade, frunk, a dent, a few scrapes and am well over mileage! Also, the cost of a new PCP or hassle of a 2nd hand EV isn't...

In the summer my EVs 700-800m pcm costs under £1, or around £10 in winter just saying . . . .

He tried out the Hydrogen trucks too. Said that they cost a lot more to buy, several times as much to fuel up and were not good. Key issue was fueling up times! Slower than EV charging!! Apparently, they fill well from empty at the end of a shift, but not during driving breaks when being part...

My Direct Line renewal was c£1100, paid £522 via a direct quote with Direct Line. Crazy!

Yes, I guess 400 miles in the UK is like 600+ in France / Spain etc! I can get to central France or into Germany quicker than the central Scotland.

I might being going that way in 2027 . . . . .

Sounds good, the easy way!

Did you drive your MG4 there , , , , , ? What boat did you use?

That's only just into Norway, a few miles & a ship! Not going up to Nordkapp then? That's under 1000 miles from Eurotunnel, shorter than my trips to Portugal!!!!!

Thanks, considering it was my 5th of 5 longest trips / number of chargers and the easiest yet! My trip 6 is already booked and trip 7 is in planning and trip 8 is being scoped. What does surprise me, is how much cheaper touring in an EV is compared to jetting off somewhere on holiday and how...

Some basic statistics for my trip: - The total mileage of my trip was 2200 miles of which 1894 was abroad in France, Spain & Portugal. I started my trip at 100% and ended it at 8%. I added 586.514 kWs during my trip, so used 644.8 kWs (covering the 100-8% loss) That is 3.4 m/kWh added or 3.8...

Our hotel at Bilbao had free chargers (x4) without the need for activation. Topped up from 43% to full over the one night we stayed. Only 3.6 kW/h but adequate for our needs. Walking around the city, I spotted other chargers. This one was a highlight & publicly accessible! This building...

Travelling over the tumbleweed high plains of Spain on the way out was very hot, exceeding 40C for much of it and the weather looked to be just as hot for the return. Unfortunately, due to massive wildfires, the key motorways needed were closed & power was off, evacuations in place and large...

OK, back on with my trip! Our stay in Portugal this time did not have any charging facilities, actually the wiring was quite old! It did come with quite a view though, the Atlantic Ocean to the front and the mountains to the rear, with low land in the sea mist. I used a few local...

That's the petrol station lol

Spain was a lot easier than before as charging options have increased significantly. I again just planned my next stop as I went, but this time checked the route beforehand to determine spacing / gaps / reliability. The only downside is the Spanish wanting to charge to 100% on rapid chargers...

So, with the ease of France over, Spain beckoned.. Whilst not as bad as before, as charger numbers have doubled, still absolutely none on motorway services, I had to exit the motorway every time! My 1st charge was at Vitoria-Gasteiz, a Zunder auto-charge unit, the easiest to use of all chargers...

So far, across France, I have done very little pre-planning as chargers are numerous. I literally looked for the next charger at each stop along the way as & when I needed it. The choices were driven by driving time, facilities, cost, ease of use, need for a break, the range was never a...

On the last night in Bayonne, I went to Tesla charger to charge up for the trip south. The scale of charging in France really has to be seen to be believed now. Whilst I had my first use of the newer Tesla units, of which there were 2 groups There were these nice Electra units And, rows...
