"Just gone electric, a charge costs £12.40 on my current tariff which gets me 260 miles. Not everyone can afford an electric car yet Not everyone wants one, I don't." Not everyone has a place to keep one regardless of cost/desire. I live in an apartment building and our parking spaces don’t have charging points | |||

"Just gone electric, a charge costs £12.40 on my current tariff which gets me 260 miles." electric cars have thier place, but dont kid yourself that they are better for the enviorament, dont forget alot of power stations are either coal or gas still, nevermind all the stuff in batteries, and try putting out a lithium battery thats on fire! plus most people dont have a convieniant way to charge them at home, think city dwellers in flats etc, or terriced houses with on street parking etc, so electric isnt the answer, and if you do long trips, well then useless day to day without worrying you will run out and finding a place to charge, and if we all got one the national grid wouldnt cope. that said if i lived in a house with a drive/garage and had a fairly short comute then i wouldnt hesitate. the other worry is, how are the gov going to get back all the lost fuel duty, yet to be seen | |||

"I don't even pay attention to the price to be entirely honest, I'm likely at 3 or 4 different filling stations a day, which evers closest at the time "true enough at the end of the day probably only saving pence | |||
"But when I'm at the pump I do think back to the days where a field bike tank could be filled with a couple of quid and be up in the fells all day long
2 quid nower days barely takes it from the bottom "or off the forecourt | |||
