good to know. it is interesting to see something house wise has increased in size since our 1960s property, because gardens and inside living space hasnt!.
for a uk spec car presumably still under warranty seems decent to me so long as no issues. Just be aware it is chademo DC charging - which may not be an issue but just keep in mind so we dont have to read another article in the daily express about how a new EV driver got a new car that they were unable to plug into 80% of fast chargersI can get a 2023 Nissan leaf with 5000km driven for 14.5k. Is it a good deal?

Actually i do have 1 tip that i wish someone had told me about.Car was delivered on Thursday and Wallbox installation same day. Loving the looks of it, need to adjust to a smaller boot; coming from an estate. Lovely cream interior and blue exterior. The instant power is very fun, any tips for the I-Pace in general?

Sounds an expensive way to heat a houseWe are taking fully electric to the next level this week - the gas pipe got capped off today and the trades are in ripping out the boiler.
The caravan isn’t all electric yet though!

Interested, Link?I’ll do a full write up for the heat pump thread in due course.
Interested, Link?
Edit: I’ve seen people getting quotes for as little as £500 from Octopus.

in the sat nav go into the settings (not sure where off top of my head) there is a setting to limit route for towing caravan. Turn this on!!!
my ipace was bordering on immaculate when i got it, after driving for 2 weeks the satnav took me down a lane. I knew it looked dodgy before going down and the name should have given it away (i think it was Devils lane or Devils road).
it was horrendous and got steadily worse with a really tight bend with a shear wall with a big rock sticking out that i did not want to reverse back up incase i went into someone following me.
not only was it single lane, it was over grown to hell with branches and brambles going right accross the road and scratched both sides of my car, i had to pull brambles out of the joins between the bumper and my bodywork. my lad in the back was scared to death because of all the alarms going off.....
so yeah turn on caravan towing in the sat nav and never go down Devils road (or lane!)
