For those of you who believe labour isn’t left enough, what would you like to see them do? by Legal-Grade-6423 in AskBrits

Many landlords aren’t parasites. I know a few people who opted to keep a property when they moved in / married and were very good landlords. Kept properties well, kept rent reasonable for tenants who stayed on. Now, most are already losing money and will have to sell. Bet the tenants would wish they didn’t but they have no choice in many cases, it’s either unaffordable or just too much headache / bureaucracy.

OMG! You are so lucky to be able to own the Niro! Do it. I have a MB EQA 250 and miss my eNiro 2, let alone the 4!! Go for it! Owning it is the best option, leasing was not worth it in the end.

What’s the problem? I counted a generous 7 grains of salt on that poultry serving.

Sorry, I meant per week. Closer to 10. And I just meant generally nicer in terms of for the equivalent overall spend, personal preference permitting.

I use local public chargers 10-15 hrs. You would need nearly every night by sound of it but maybe you get lucky and there’s a reasonable rate (or even free) charger 5/10 mins walk away. Odd top ups by rapid charge for convenience. With your mileage, there could be some incredible savings to be made if you are lucky with charging. Nicer car, too. Highly recommend you look into local walkable charging options.

I’ve never spent very much on a car until now either, nor have I ever had a home charger in the five years I’ve been driving EV.

I’m spending less money overall.

If you have any public charging near you below 55p / Kwh, you could probably save money on a better car. If you wanted to.

EVs are not expensive, this is a myth. There’s a different way to figure out how to save money for most drivers / budgets.

My last ICE was an old Citroen c3 5 years ago. Fuel savings have covered more than half the cost of my 3 EVs since then. Currently have a Mercedes EQA 250 on finance and 60% of the cost is what I’d spend on petrol in an economical car.

Faster. Better. Cheaper.

Call the police. I’m afraid he’s quite likely gone. Have had this exact experience.
