    Jaguar Type 00

    I have a theory that there's a secret competition among manufacturers to see just how ugly they can make a car and still manage to sell it.

    MG4 X Power Vibe/Hum 65 to 75mph

    I still feel like I've been gently punched in the gut from a full-bore standing start... after a year of getting "used to it"...

    Conflicting Info on UK Tax Rate for EVs ?

    AIUI, if you buy a new EV from April onwards, you pay £10 for first year. Thereafter, you pay the "standard" rate. Basically, exactly the same as ICE vehicles have been doing for years now - one price in year 1, then the standard rate.

    EV Newbie

    I was thinking there must be quite a lot of us XPower-types in that category!

    XPower Insurance Renewal Refused

    Well knock me down and cover me in Twiglets(1), just had an email from them with a renewal offer fo just £343! Need to check the fine print methinks... but it's just possible they have genuinely "quoted me happy"! :D (1) Other savoury snacks are available.

    XPower Insurance Renewal Refused

    I'm with Quoute Me Happy - £300 last year, gonna be more like £450 this year and I seem to get a better deal through the Meerkats than renewing direct. Hmm. They're Aviva under the covers...

    Electric small van Options?

    The eTourneo isn't, it's a ground up design. The ICE/hybrid baby Tourneo is based on the VW Caddy platform, the pure electric one is 100% Ford (and looks nothing like the others).

    Does the MG4 EV hate LKA secretly itself?

    I discovered this afternoon that the option also won't come up with the driver's door open.

    How's the weather near you?

    Could do with some of that wet stuff down here. I think my portable air conditioner must be as northern as me, 'cause neither of us is coping with 34 Celcius...

    MG X Power

    Actually that sounds handy in and of itself, so that it doesn't turn the bl**dy LKA back on just because I've pulled my bum off the seat for a second...

    All new cars now have to have speed limiters

    Here's another example; one roundabout near me is on a section with a 40mph limit. It's a big roundabout, often busy, but the first exit has a 20 sign about 20 yards in. When I first got the MG4, I was trying the "intelligent" speed limiter, and got onto the roundabout, only to have it pick that...

    All new cars now have to have speed limiters

    Anything which can distract the driver should be regarded with skepticism at best. For example, there's a junction coming out of Basildon joining the A127 where the slip road is short and the traffic typically heavy, where you need full concentration to slot into the stream in a fairly short...

    All new cars now have to have speed limiters

    You could halve the accident rate in a month if you reprogrammed all the speed cameras to detect tailgating instead...
