I use a combination of Apeman C550 and C370. I originally bought a C550 for the front, but didn't like the rear camera quality, so instead put a C370 at the back. I now have the same setup on both of our cars. I wouldn't make exaggerated claims for them, but so far they've worked OK. I also use...

I was in a similar position and, like you, decided to pass this time. I did find this forum very useful, although probably not in the way that it was intended ;-) I was already concerned about range and charging, and found nothing to reassure me - it's surprising the number of compromises that...

I can understand that - I recently decided against an EV for the time being, and still miss the idea of going electric. I don't feel guilty, though, as everyone has to make their own decision as to what works best for them at any particular point in time. Absolutely... Reading what the good...

I was going to rebut, but then I saw where you lived ;-)

Isn't that what climate control is for?

From #54, responding to your post...

Which bit of "whilst not technically illegal" was not clear?

My understanding was that, whilst not technically illegal (it's not a MUST NOT), it's not considered good driving practice - Rule 122 - General rules, techniques and advice for all drivers and riders (103 to 158) - The Highway Code - Guidance - GOV.UK I don't really see that the IAM guidance...

Yet... Presumably RHD models will be along eventually...

Looks like a good update...

I could get away with an EV with home charging for day to day driving, but I want one vehicle that will do it all - and it sounds like the only way of doing that would be to buy a Tesla Model Y, as they charge quickly and have a very good charger network. Not only is the Tesla hugely more...

So was the 7hrs with or without stops on the journey(s)? And how many stops? Sorry for all the questions, but the main thing putting me off an EV at this point in time is how badly they deal with long journeys, so details of your journey would be very useful. I used to regularly do a 210 mile...

Sorry, I'm confused - google maps says that Derby to Southend on Sea is between 162 and 177 miles one way, depending on route...

So how long was each stop?

Rather useful for insurance purposes or in court, though....

I could be wrong, but I doubt that it would be capable of clearly rendering number plates

I don't have the C860, like @Scorpion I have a C550 - well, two of them. I bought the first and was please with the quality, so bought the GPS module. I fitted the rear camera, but wasn't impressed with the picture quality, so bought another C550 and fitted it at the rear. This takes up two 12V...

The critical point, IMHO.... Without a robust, reliable and (fairly) economical national public charging network, I can see many people (possibly including myself) deciding that the system simply isn't fit for purpose - their purpose, which is individual.

Oi! One end of our village is approximately three feet higher then the other - we're on a hill :)

I thought that was iilegal - the speedo should always overread. On all my Fords when the speedo says 30 you're actually doing 27 - and that 3mph difference seems to hold throughout the speed range.
