You know its going to happen when you find people who have purchased them going back to ICE vehicles after a while realising they are not as practical as they thought.

I hope that's not from the forum as a whole, Steve. It would be a bit of a drastic reaction but I do understand that the thought of Lib-Dems can do that to the the most dedicated of men.

I’m just back home trying to warm up from a two hour ride on my motorbike back from Sunderland. I would think the Xmas recess will overtake any political developments. We should really be concentrating on getting through the next few weeks hopefully safe from COVID. Take care

There’s lots of talk about EV’s being over priced. A quick check online show’s that a 75 at £22,000 in 2004 would be the equivalent of around £34,542 in 2020

Enough of the political talk, its getting very repetitive having to type these reminders and closing threads.

If you want to talk about the pros and cons of electric vehicles then start a new thread,
but NO POLITICS!

oh, and a to one and all
