I have just bought a PHEV , it will only do max 20 mile fully charged, it cost me 2.50 at home to charge , so why £9 ? where is the £6.50 rip off profit going , i might as well just pollute the world and use petrol , or go to the camping and caravan sites

OHs son took me to the hospital this morning in his VW 3?and says do not take any notice of the brochure MPC as he on mostly local journeys has only managed if light footed, about two thirds of what is advertised which seems to be without the radio,,Satnav, or aircon, in operation, and could be less in winter month's
Mind you it has lightning acceleration much needed with the traffic levels in this area
Very comfortable ride with suspension and weight of battery
Ps he said in conversation that "free charging" at supermarkets is under review(he works for Dunn Hunby)a part of the Tesco group) as it is becoming more noticeable that some are using the chargers without shopping in the stores that supply the facility, and he say that goes for many firms

Posted on 16/05/2022 10:56 by ChocolateTreesOfgem, just emailed to let me know that the response to me is now in legal review, and may take a little longer as the team is very busy.
Very curios to see what they say now.

metered hook ups on all pitches would be a fair way to go to.
So we would all now have to carry around a large supply of £1 or £2 coins to feed the meter.
Oh, hang on a mo.! I am just leaving site for home and there is still some £3 or more on the meter - lucky chap that next takes this pitch!
