Classic BMWs and a longboat sound like decent excuses to me Scottie. You had a guy in Malta who I think did a bit of site tech support (few years ago mind)... but generally most are still here then I think.

Just actually washed my SJ yesterday (first time in about 18 months so acceptable) - will post some pics soon. I like to keep it nice n straight but it does work for its living. It's the last IC engine vehicle I will ever own and it is brilliant

Just read the first post on this and have to admit I now own a MG4ev, yes I feel bad. The idea was it does over 250 miles on one charge and as we don’t do many miles in it at £30 to charge it once a fortnight it seemed a good idea. No how wrong can you be, I live in a flat and one neighbour won’t agree to us having a charger because it’s dangerous and might burst into flames. Nope because he can’t be in charge and dictate when and how often we use it, most stupid of reasons but there you go. But the question is would I recommend an EV? No I would not there’s no real infrastructure to charge them, to find a charger that works is going to cost as much as it would to fill with petrol and will take about 30 mins. That and the fact MG is crap

Just a few miles away we've got quite a large charging station within a sports complex car park, I'd guess it takes 10-15 EV's.....always jam full on Saturday and Sunday evenings with very unhappy looking owners.......can't even go for a pint when it's charging

I deffo wouldn’t consider one unless I had a charger at home. Seems like a right pain otherwise.
