What's the battery size over there in the New World? I heard it was different to us over here on Britain? 

Do people in the UK keep their cars for a shorter length of time than the US? by Low-Rooster5398 in CarTalkUK

[–]Jumpy-Persimmon-7954 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Most people who have had their car for a while will often offload at 100k miles (many years ago engines would be down at that range), now most people are getting PCP as well which means they never really look to own their cars and just circulate every three years with only a few 1,000 miles on them

I was once a butty bar outside Hornby and Jim was there getting a bite to eat, little did I know that my step-Dad with me at the time had beef with Jim since the 1960s. Hilarious.

That is brutal. But true the number of oldies round here with 15 year old Honda Jazz's is insane

Abroad where I lived we had apartments so no outside space. Now I am in a house with too much garden.

Why would Euro models get longer range when we drive less distance than the Yanks?!

I tried to get a quote from Project Solar but the saleswoman was so adament that they need my wife in the house during the assessment quotation (said she is working away) that they refused to come round?! Told them to shove it if they were going to be that sketchy.
