    GranSport at auction

    Went for £13.5k + fees so about £15.5k out the door which seems pretty cheap!

    Yes, it is still at the cricket club I have only been once before but its become a lot more popular recently I believe. It's forecast to **** it down so I might see what the weather is like. It starts at 8:30

    Hi, The 5k per year was because this thread seemed to be focussed on the pay-back in terms of the extra Co2 made producing the car over what it saves over its lifetime as the break-even point is about 60k miles so it would take 12 years which is a long time! The ZS EVs are great value to be...

    If you ever want to try one you are welcome to drive mine if you are close to Chester. The dealer network is fine (Volvo Garages) but the only issue is they aren't many places you can get a test drive!

    If you are still local it would be good to be taken for a spin in one at some point. I did pop and look at one in the garage at Richards but didn't want to take anymore of his time up seeing as I wasn't in a position to buy at the time.

    Not bad at all, I will be honest its very rare I need to utilise a public charger as you effectively leave home with a full tank and its only a handful of occasions I year I do more than 180-200 miles in a day even doing 20k p.a. I had one drive where I had to visit three services to find a...

    If you do 5k a year you aren't suited to an EV to be honest. I do 20k per year and it costs me 7.5p per kwh on a night tariff to charge as such 220/230 miles costs me about £5.50. I will be honest I have my EV as its a company car so financially its dirt cheap. However as a daily driver I...

    I have dropped them a message, if I got it for that sort of money its a keeper. If not I wait a few more months and get a lower mileage one for £20 - £25k range. Massively low mileage has never really interested me in all honesty, its good maintenance that I value more as there is nothing...

    To be honest that includes the engagement rings and honeymoon so the actual wedding is about 27k which is average or just below average. The last wedding I attended cost double that :o My partner works in the industry and she doesn't like fancy clothes, bags or cars etc so it's the one thing I...

    The watch thread.

    A few of my favourites, I have a couple of seikos and smart watches as well. I have been on the wait list for a GMT for 18 months with Maplin Webb in Chester but have more chance of winning the lottery I suspect...

    Polestar have released 30 pages on this exploring it in great detail. https://www.polestar.com/uk/sustainability/transparency/ The payback is about 60k miles I believe which I will do within 3 years and I am sure the car will last for a lot longer than that... There are Teslas with 300/400k...

    Hi, Just thought I would join the forum as I will be looking to get a Grandsport in the next few months. Currently have a Polestar 2 as a daily and need something that makes some noise...
