Electric vehicles

Watched Guy Martin program on channel 4 the other night, very interesting if you can see it on catch up.
Really can't see you out running the police as they'd be on you in a flash.

Trailer here...

Promoting all these electric cars speed and acceleration stats is pointless. 90% of the time is just following the car in front and the rest is parking.
Just think of all the people residing in flats, city dwellings with no off street parking, etc. How do they all get topped up at night? Thats if the local scroats don't nick your lead or the old lady trip up over it.

In fairness Martin wasn’t promoting them, just looking at their capabilities. All that are sold to the public are governed down from their overall potential anyway.

Indeed he tested their usefulness in a run to John O’Groats and concluded that they are not a viable option for distance driving due to a poor charging infrastructure AND eye watering charges for fast charging when he could find such a working installation.

Edit: the electric bus he checked out really does have potential now though.

I see what you did there Terry, hugely clever mate

Get a fast IC car, no electric will be able to stay with it long enough, the faster they go the shorter the trip, they would be stuffed unless they radioed ahead, then they'd have to unplug and put the lead away, eventually if all this stupidity continues the scrotes will have to be energizer bunnies to carry on.

Now now that's a charge with an element of acidity, I must keep grounded and stay positive, now that would be FLASH!

Despite a series of negative posts there’s a resistance to gel with the current output so I’m not packing up and going ohm no matter watt you say.

That's not very positive of you Kev. I thought you were a little more grounded than that!

:smile2:

I shall not encourage any more of this foolishness.

Yes..I agree...that's Ample!

Is that 'switch' off Kev.
