Boom, and theres the crippler. If you live in or close to a city, then youve got buses, trains, reliable taxis, you can probably even cycle to where you want to be. If you dont, then anything running on a battery is not going to get you to work and back, knock down the shops, drop the kids off at various parties/clubs and get you home again, and those are just the expected journeys - what if you have to visit a relative in hospital, or go pick the mother in law up from the police station? It also looks like the charge points are mainly in cities as well, theres one about 5 miles from me, then another about 8 and the rest are 12+ miles away, theres only 3 high speed points within the cars range from my house Just to add, what if you're on the M25 and they shut it due to a accident, or major traffic delays etc :S Deffo not for me. Perfect for you surely.... comes direct from the factory without an engine Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

being a cynic ................ I doubt it Yeah can't see it either, just need proper control over hire costs, if someone hits your 2 seater coupe then you should really get a 2 seater coupe to tide you over, but not get a bill for almost the cost of the car for a couple of months rental!!! I personally like having different smaller rental cars I wouldn't usually drive, but why shouldn't I have a 5 series Beemer or CLS if my Jag is hit Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not surprising when you see quotes like the OPs for £15k hire costs... no wonder premiums are so high... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

They should be allowed, I just don't think they should take it. Don't see why not if there is better regulation, after all someone with a more expensive car would be paying more insurance in the first place... maybe some kind of incentive if you downscale possibly? Because every time someone takes an expensive courtesy car, every single person pays for it with their premiums. If folks only ever took the cheapest thing, like an Aygo, then premiums would come down. Not disagreeing but if someone bumps my Jag, why should I drive an Aygo for a month or so? Like I said if my insurance was cheaper in the first place and clearly stated that all I could have is an Aygo then fair enough The system is the problem as 'costs' are claimed against the other persons insurance so people think I will have what I want, same with injury claims. I distinctly remember someone moaning a while back about a $hitty courtesy car, now who was that.....? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I must admit It really boils my p$$$ when your sat in a macdonalds car park and rubbish is deposited out the car window when a bin is never more than 10 yards away Your p$$$ boiling is probably is probably a side affect due to all the additives in the nuggets... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah me too, but I can also understand that if someone has their car trashed through no fault of their own that they should be allowed something similar, just don't agree with the inflated prices Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Could pick you up Dave, not entirely to sure where you are in comparison to the event? A bit of a detour mate, I am nr Bluewater, not sure if Mary wants to come along too, really appreciate the offer though Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk No worries mate, let us know if you change your mind Will do matey Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It's an inflated price because it is sucked up by us all in our premiums, not having a dig at you its just how it is.... it is fair enough to expect a similar car to that which has been damaged, but there should be limits on how much can be charged, for £300 a day you would expect a supercar or equivalent!!!

I wondered how long before you showed your face on this thread What about me?, ...I've been silently lurking in here too for a while. Disappointed by the pics though. Yes I think we need to see a pic of Mrs iLittles posterior so we can make an I formed judgement on the issue.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

How much is it to just get in on the day, I will just be parking in car park as my Jaaaag is far from concourse material Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Why not take it out and plastidip it, from what I have seen it looks very OEM A £20 can should do both sides easily Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just make her drive with a bare bum, now that is naughty Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yep I agree with that and that's what I was trying to capture with my second picture of my dials that SMD (Dave) picked up on. Hopefully Wasso will still have some wiggle room to adjust the angle if it's not right. Yep I think it needs to be angled and inside the actual binacle, it might not look quite as neat as being flush but I do t think flush is going to work unless the whole binacle is going to be angled up maybe Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

And there you have one reason why car insurance is so high, that and the exaggerated repair costs, oh and not forgetting all the injury claims nowadays.... car insurance should be way lower than it is, just a big money making circle.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Don't worry 'Charge rage' is already here http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/10592660/Charge-Rage-electric-car-owners-get-angry-after-having-vehicles-unplugged.html Wow more Leafs than a wood in Autumn Saw an 'electric' Scooby in a bay at IKEA the other week not quite on a par with parking in a disabled or child parking space when you shouldn't but still really ignorant in my book... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just thought I would mention it fella, just that the binnacle points downward at quite an angle I guess so that you don't get glare on the dials, might make your new digital gizmo unreadable in bright sunlight, might be worth reading up on if it is going to need a cover that's all... Fair play for all the custom work going in to the Zed Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
