[QUOTE="kiwi pom, post: 8211420, member: 946"] I try and see the positives in new tech and electric is pretty much going to take over, its not all roses though. Negatives, cost and ability to charge. Lots of folk parking on the street. While they're still a minority your 15 minute charge on the road usually works, when everyone's doing it and the chargers are getting old and unreliable your 15 minutes could turn into 3 hours. Reliability and second hand value will set the market, at the moment the well off can lease something nice then give it back in 3 years and there are a few people looking for second hand. The question is will that continue and will parts, service and batteries be reasonable priced to still attract the second hand buyer, if no one wants them when you're done, your lease is going up on the next one. Electric price/availability and whatever tax the government eventually charge - probably a mileage tax - will make or break it. [/QUOTE]
