• But I also can’t pack loads of stuff into a Nissan Leaf and drive up to Scotland in it

    I've just arrived in Edinburgh with 4 suitcases, a cool bag, three rucksacks, 6 wetsuits, two basketballs and 4 humans.

    In a full electric eNiro.

  • Is that London - Edinburgh? Fair play. Deffo makes me think that in 5 years a second hand electric estate may be the answer then vs diesel. But that also relies on how well EVs fair over time.

    Definitely couldn’t afford it new or on lease at the moment. But that’s kinda what I’m wondering about, what will the affordable option be in 5 years time.

  • The thing is all EV and hybrids are comparatively expensive.

    Last time I looked they were about 50-100% more than the petrol equivalent.

  • Is that London - Edinburgh?

    Yeah although we had a trip to Belton Park NT, stopped over in York and had the afternoon on Cheswick Sands beach.

    Could do it in a day with two rapid charge stops, easy enough.

    I'm the only driver in the household so don't really want to do 8 hours plus behind the wheel in a single day.
