I wouldn't pay £10Ks for a battery plus the associated potential for Software, Car & Battery to fail as a result. Not a game I would want to play.

Speaking as someone who has rebuilt engines & replaced them - I cannot fix the batteries & I know they are very expensive to replace. I don't think the second hand market will ever be there unless that problem is fixed.

Will need to be a lot cheaper to enable those buying second hand to have the option of replacing batteries Lots of other problems such as fire & grid capacity to sort but ultimately the cost of running a vehicle needs to be as cheap as ICE engines.

To re-iterate what others have said HMG has introduced legal targets & banning of fuels & selling of products This is NOT a free market choice, this is Communism by dictat - it IS for the government to make it work & no one else commited to anything.

How many are like you ? So there is the problem, EV's are there to make consumers pay - which IMHO is exactly why HMG is closing all routes but electric. Combined with the ability to control everyone. Even you will be controlled by the fact it's very easy to spot who has solar panels & control...

I think you touched on the real problem in your post. The batteries cost far too much for people to absorb costs in the second hand market. Needs proper recycling, which will require an adult government - which is not going to happen. Push will eventually come to shove.

You mean slum housing with the all violence & unsocial living that goes with that ? Who benefits from destroying UK culture bringing in 3rd world conditions ? Banks No thanks, rather have a civil war

If they wanted cheap housing then they'd ban foreign investors for a start, corporates & rent-a-room Enable people to build their own houses, which they avoid at all costs MPs & Civil Servants will just keep the money for themselves by hook or crook, Greed turned up to 11

No chance of a transformer being put in the local area ? Something you could try & get a battery park on ? Wouldn't hurt to ask FG ? If it's pylons & you do get a transformer you'll have a good asset for other companies to use/rent IF that's what you want ?

Well that's the problem We all think the Parish Council isn't worth wasting time on & then they use it as a weapon Seeing the same thing happen with religion around the UK, what was once a pillary now is a weapon - cherish what we have or it's lost

I've done everything myself with my father doing the under ground ducting with either a digger or an air powered ram boring device. Did have a mouse eat through the cable recently - might be worth using ducting ? We used Cat 5 internet cable for the CCTV cameras despite them being analogue -...

I doubt if anyone would be posting on here if they'd made 10+ million on a 100+ housing estate, but then again you have to be a certain kind of person to even get a sniff of such

Imagine the money involved & who has got that money 20,000,000 x 100,000 = 2,000,000,000,000 = 2 Trillion in profit on the houses alone, with associated mortgages say 4+ Trillion for the banks & building societies Those are low estimates BTW All the commercial properties required to service...

For those who think conspiracy theories are rife, here's what happened in 1952 caused by the RAF cloud seeding No, they don't know what they are doing or why https://amp.theguardian.com/uk/2001/aug/30/sillyseason.physicalsciences

A lot more people in the country though - gotta be 20+ million more than when I was young
