The guys at Spartan are fabulous and I can’t recommend them enough.

Renewed mine last night. Paperwork for auto renewal came through at £966 ( up from £524 or so this year). Went back online with same details for same company and it’s £744 with enhanced courtesy car. Tried all the comparison sites which were coming up with over a grand. Still, I was sort of expecting worse due to make/model and fact it’s full ev. But I’m saving a shed load in running costs and it’s lowered my household leccy bill too for our heat pump and so the increase in premium has been covered by just one months savings on the house.

If I’m not mistaken. PC members and Parish Councils, are now no longer able to register and ‘objection’, only to submit comments. As to a conflict of interest, had they received individual planning notices from the Planning department? If so, then yes it would be considered a ‘conflict’. Had they not been sent a Planning application notice then they are not required to lodge a conflict of interest statement as far as I’m aware?

Am away at the moment and not sure when I’m over that way?

Rumour has it that TC got so worried that he may have missed out on a bargain carts whilst the rest of us were logged on, that he has only just stopped shaking 😉

My insurance is the same Maintenance costs are the same as other ICE models from this manufacturer but with a greater service interval Depreciation is no worse on this than other ICE prestige vehicles which I pointed out Even though it was over forty k, there is no additional road fund cost (luxury tax), but then again, there is no road fund tax anyway ( changes in 2025 to £180 per annum). No congestion charges So what are the other costs to take into account?

Depreciation, well that depends on the vehicle of course? Certain manufacturers of ICE Vehicles have residual values that make your eyes water, especially if you have gone for their executive models. Think top of the range Peugeot or Citroen, maybe an Alfa etc. The market for EV’a has tumbled, especially since the Government’s push back of the discontinuation of ICE Vehicle sales date. Do I feel like a smug environmentalist for having it? Nope. Am I preaching that people should buy one? Nope, for it’s a mentioned as to what suits the individual. For me and the type of driving that I do, it suits me. I didn’t purchase for residuals, practicality or environmental reasons, I purchased it as it’s a wee beastie and garners the attention of ‘the ladies’ 😉

Which is why I mentioned that the infrastructure will need to adapt, but it won’t as at the moment, I don’t think there are any full ev towing vehicles. But I may be wrong of course
