Every time I see a post by @delilah , I'm increasingly convinced he's just a troll account set up by Clive, to drive traffic/posts... Every post is just a troll point, with dozens of responses- a post declaring undying love for Dale Vince, or how veganism will save the world, must do more for...

Similar vein- Had to ask a GP who's never met me, to send a letter/form to the local plod, to prove I've not experienced any factors which may affect whether I'm safe to own a shotgun... So I e-mailed it to the docs (a large multi site surgery, with their own chemists etc on site), asking what...

I've similar issues with a 4000, and have a new one on order at the moment- £90- but would rather get the old one working.. Not got so far as the temp and the fuel yet, but do have a new volt regulator to hand. Seems like the receiver for the cable from the dyno has worn away- so the cable no...

looks like new fair play. Better than this one-

Mobile sheep handling systems must be "Fully galvanised or powder paint coated metal" Which would exclude all aluminium systems manufactured by the market leaders in this type of thing surely....

You keeping it?

my steed, on a quick run, whilst away from home...

Like the look of them- but dealer told me expect 12m lead time in early March. Didn't bother trying to drive one on that basis. Best of luck. EDIT- my bad- 12 months was the EV6, not E Niro

That's quite a hit no doubt, and a shocking cost. I didn't think there were 7 year old hybrid RRs out there yet, but google tells me they've been about since 2013. Time flies. Cost would be about the same as it would cost these days for a main dealer to repair the common crankshaft failure...

I assume you have a deposit down on the Rivian? Sounds like just what you need. https://www.carwow.co.uk/blog/rivian-r1t-review-new-electric-pickup-truck-driven#gref

Yo delilah WALOB Keep believin' Dale

I'm curious, did your mate email you back? Difficult to believe this was a month ago...

I'm not sure how a third and fourth EV is going to help.... But with two EVs, and a battery, drawing 7kw each, for the duration of the low rate, that's 21kw/hr. At 31p/kw premium, that's £6.51/hr to Vince, if he was my supplier, for which I'd get a nice warm feeling, that I was doing my bit...

VAT is included, and 75% of our consumption, as to be expected from this tariff, has gone from 5p/kw to 7.5p/kw (EVs timed/programmed to charge overnight, alongside the hungriest appliances). Just over 31p/kw cheaper...

There's no feeling threatened here. Just a slight feeling of mockery really, and a little bit of admiration. The guy has managed to "add value" to one of the most commoditised household purchases you could possibly think of, and without any alteration what so ever to the product, has thousands...
