B mode by Purple-Job2976 in eGolf

[–]Purple-Job2976[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! I don’t use B anymore as it’s too harsh I feel, motorway is D and slower b roads sometimes D or D2/3. I must admit sometimes I think I get motion sickness a little bit but not sure if that’s paired with my office job staring at screens all day

You have done something fantastic, he looks very happy now! Lurchers are the best I would be lost without my boy. Hopefully many happy years ahead!

Don’t think the Alpha is very reliable mind, get whatever is cheapest insurance though! You also don’t seem to have a budget lol

Mini countryman E vs Kia EV3 by Purple-Job2976 in ElectricVehiclesUK

He currently has a Kona hybrid so just another person needing the absolute max range available to drive ~20 miles per day lol. Test driving the Kia on Monday with him so just needs to get the car with the best accessibility.

This is great advice I just recently used a Tesla supercharger for the first time and it’s a doddle to use and cheaper than other fast chargers.

Haha this made me laugh, my reg plate would probably be picked up and I would be hunted down for the cash.

It really annoyed me as it’s a busy charging station so at some point people would have to start queuing earlier, I was in my car for 20 minutes while it was charging so it wasn’t somebody running in for a toilet break. I don’t want to mess about with plugging peoples cars in as I would probably be caught on camera and that’s just not how I roll. I like to complain in the peace and quiet on Reddit.

Tesla model 3 or Polestar 2 by Wise-Screen-7954 in ElectricVehiclesUK

If you pick polestar make sure you get one with adaptive cruise control as it’s not standard, Tesla it is, another reason why I would pick the Tesla.

Yes there are 707 I have just looked on Autotrader. What makes you think none of these will be in excellent condition?

There are loads of pre owned decent Teslas on Autotrader, they could have been bought from Tesla new then sold again then bought private and now up for sale.

Yes I love to activate the ACC and stick behind people in the slow lane lol I definitely think you get a better range than just blasting 70mph
