No worries. Also worth noting, this week the 2nd hand market is looking really great for EVs. You can get a decent EV like a fiat500e for £12k which is about half price… the big trick is having home charging on a driveway or private space. If you do a certain amount of rapid charging a week, ie, live in a flat or something there are subscriptions which can make it really worthwhile. Tesla offer one for non-tesla now, but on my routes there’s only one option so I’m still sticking with my VW version which has contracts with chargers near me.
