It is a shame, but when OEMs are struggling to make EVs profitable, and boutique EV conversion companies have to charge £££££ there’s just no way the numbers would add up for a large scale conversion company right now.

People will always get wound up 😂 But FWIW I think Porsche were a bit dumb using the Turbo moniker on their EVs. I know they said it's 'just a trim level' but for a marque with such a storied history with Turbo branded models, it's just a stupid move.

Haha, no they’ll usually keep them at least 50% charged as it makes no real difference cost wise.

Nope, they’re almost entirely ‘anthracite grey’ or RAL7016 to be precise.

I did apologise, but that's a bit like saying sorry after eating your best mate's second to last muffin and then mashing the last one into his face (sorry again Erik). I'll head to AI prison forthwith, though it won't be too tricky as they locks will only have 3 fingers.

12yr old me was *ahem* ‘awakened’ when the revival scene came on. You know the one, fellas.

Incorrect. Every relationship consists of one person who stacks the dishwasher like they’re being awarded points for neatness, and the other who throws it in like raccoon on meth. This is the way.

I'm sure it will, alongside a price increase.

You have a choice of what you eat, you pathetic excuse for a human. Sort your shit out and stop blaming others for your shortcomings.

Indeed. Matt Prior especially is one opinion I trust explicitly.

I had no idea this was even on sale, so I’m thinking they may have FU’d their marketing somewhat…

No. No, this isn’t that. Bellend.

I had a nice weekend doing stuff. Satisfying. Painted two walls in the kitchen, sorted out the front garden, mowed the lawn, washed the cars, ate lots and went for a nice ride in the sun yesterday on my new MTB. Happy Tim.

LOVE that. Saw this very car/driver racing first time out at Oulton Park, looked so damn cool. Is there a place I can buy prints of this?

Also this guy:
“Yes dear, we could’ve spent an hour teasing each other with foreplay then had wild, exciting, incredible sex. But you’ll note <pushes glasses up nose> that me jumping on top, pumping for 5seconds, grunting and passing out had the same outcome. For me”

You utterly boring, dull, mindless sheep. Feel free to live in a beige hellscape but some of us prefer a little colour in our lives.

It’s so telling of how short attention spans are that there’s literally a splash teaser for the trailer you’re about to watch, at the start of it. Like, can’t brains stay focused for the 2.5seconds before the trailer begins?

At least this will be simple enough to keep going. The issue with the Fisker is all the software, screens, linked systems etc. The Slate with its windy windows, no infotainment etc should have better longevity.

I had someone telling me that EVs don't wear tyres as much the other week. When I countered with the fact that they weigh more, have more torque through the tyres etc so it's simple physics, his response was "yeah but regen means they don't scrub the tarmac like they do with braking" - so I gave up.
