4 Teslas, 3 model 3s white. grey and black and the gull wing doored one in black. Also 2 Leafs, red and white and the Skoda Enyaq I mentioned on the new reg thread!! Amazing what a cruise round the M25 for 2 junctions throws up!! :-D

Walked to my son's with a parcel then through the Princess Anne Park to get home.
Big mistake. Big!

But did see an Audi E-tron and two Teslas, parked outside a factory.

No 2022 reg cars. Or at least probably as I never thought to look.

Only noticed the Audi because it was so big and ugly.

Polestar at the charger. Had a little chat with the owner, he had a Jaguar I-Pace for 3 years, then the 71 reg Polestar.

If you are swimming around at that level of the market, range really isn't an issue, nor longevity of the battery. All wrapped up in the monthly payments of course first user depreciation and the rest included, with the company car recycled for another at the end of the contract and all a legitimate business expense, and currently generous benefit in kind on the personal taxation score for electric vehicles.

Also a MG5 SW EV exactly like the same colour as the one spotted the other day, but on a 22 plate.

On charge at Tesco a Peugeot 2008 and a 70 reg Zoe, I thought the Zoe was black but when the sun landed on it was a very deep purple/mauve.

Are older KIA Soul EV in bargain Basement land yet? I doubt it. They have been going since 2014. Haven't looked for a while.

A big ugly black thing with "X3" on it and green flashes.
A big ugly Mazda too. Charging along at about 70 in a 50 zone.

Pathetic really, must have missed loads, been down Teesside, granddaughter's baby shower.

No 22's but a day over the border filled with Skoda Enyaq's probably at least 3 maybe 4. Also a Hyundai Kona causing a change of plan by occupying a charger we had planned to use.

I think I might have seen one of these the other day. Sort of looked like a cross between an X and a 3. It was on a private plate, but it looked very new, might have been a '22...

Giant Mercedes thing. Easy spot as it has been parked outside all night at the neighbours.
Front in so no indication of make or model until it reversed out a few minutes ago and spotted the green flash and Mercedes gunsight.
She was too quick for me to find a camera and switch it on.
And it is back.

Tesla 3 just flashed past too. Twice.
