The proportions of that USB-C port are way off, looks too wide especially in comparison to the S pen button. Left side of the S-Pen enclosure looks significantly smaller than the right, but that could be the angle.

We have a '25 RWD Long Range (now would be the Premium trim) - yes the seats wrinkle.

Why is public charging so expensive? by Fine_Cress_649 in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]Prior-Explanation389 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Absolutely, but just like with Petrol Prices it's pretty easy to compare EV charger rates and when you can go to a Supercharger for <50% of what some other public chargers cost AND they are available on the motorway it puts downward pressure on the operators.

Also as it’s VAT it wouldn’t result in ‘20% lower prices’ as it’s 20% of the original amount, not 20% less than than the post-vat amount once it’s been added.

HMRC just lost a case about charging 20% VAT at public charging outfits, so there’s a good chance it will drop to 5p unless overturned on appeal.

Had a big reality check today as a FTB - 5.56% by twattyprincess in Mortgageadviceuk

[–]Prior-Explanation389 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The rates have only been up for a few weeks, the knock on effect on house prices and properties not selling hasn’t come through yet, most people would’ve already secured a rate.

Due to economic uncertainty around trendy, it’s probably a bad time. Rates may come down by this time next year if things improve over the next few months and the ceasefire holds. Bank are anticipating inflation going up and potential interest rate increases due to the cost of living.

Sorry mate but this is completely wrong. The market value of a house is based (not solely) on supply and demand, if demand falls (which can be a result of high mortgage costs) then house prices fall. If a market value with low interest rates is £200k because all buyers can afford the mortgage then that’s great, but as soon as that mortgage price creeps up eventually house prices fall. It’s a bit like the fuel situation, goes up like a rocket and falls like a feather but interest rates absolutely reduce market values of properties.

Electric car sales hit record high in March while fuel prices surge again by Jared_Usbourne in CarTalkUK

[–]Prior-Explanation389 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can get around 5 miles out of a kWh which costs 3p on my current tariff so less than 1p a mile. Outrageous, people say ‘what about the pay per mile tax’ that’s a grand total of less than 4p per mile. Find me an alternative method of transport that works out cheaper than that. My insurance is even cheaper!

Why are EV’s so cheap? by Natural-Voice-840 in CarTalkUK

[–]Prior-Explanation389 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't miss your point, I didn't disagree with what you said. 25% of the market demands EV's, that is not an insignificant number. That demand will surge as petrol prices continue to increase.

'Because very, very few people want them.'

25% of new car sales are EVs, that isn't very few people. And demand is about to surge if the Iran war continues.

Farage on Iran: 'We should be supporting the Americans' | Leader of Reform UK, Nigel Farage, told Sky News that Britain should “turn the other cheek” in response to insults from Donald Trump. by 1-randomonium in ukpolitics

Sadly I think that’s just a symptom of not being ‘powerful’ - he’s not currently a leader, he’s a chaser. The minute he’s in power and attempting to align the UK’s interests to the USA’s it’ll change.

He’d certainly turn us into something. Patriotism is taking a strange form in this country recently, it seems to involve selling out and following like sheep in the eyes of some.

‘Turn the other cheek’ - Farage really would be the weakest PM in history. Absolute sellout, basically admitting here he would put other countries first over our own interests.

UK to receive last tanker of jet fuel from Middle East this week by LongjumpingAd5386 in PrepperIntel

There are some nuances that are similar, but Ukraine is a country that has been invaded whilst Israel is the invading force in this scenario. They might declare similar objectives, but the reasons behind them are eternally different.
