Oh yes, the name on the side of the yellow van is really quite clever

The VW is painted in a shade of dishwater called 'Sky Grey'

Thinking on that MG looks a bit like the hat the baddies wear in Star Wars... Barth Vador's helmet!

Re: Electric Vehicles: What have you spotted?
The Hyundai Ioniq (original) is a very efficient EV but largely forgotten in the flood of new EV's coming onto the market. A very capable and very efficient car nicknamed "Wind Knife" as I found out watching Jonathan Porterfield's Auction Video, here...

Re: Electric Vehicles: What have you spotted?
One of the VW Group triplets the VW e-UP! ( the others the Škoda CITIGOe iV and SEAT Mii Electric).
Its the little White car at the left of the Pic. Only traffic jam on the tour, where the A66 crosses over the M6 at Penrith via a traffic-light controlled roundabout. Little bit of extra holiday traffic but loads of lorries with long trailers. M6 flowing freely apart from the slip roads coming off the M6 up to the roundabout, A66 long tailbacks either side on the Eastbound and Westbound approaches.

Re: Electric Vehicles: What have you spotted?
From 2017 when the thread started when the only regular EV spotting would be literally the odd first gen Classic shape Nissan Leaf on the roads of the UK, the variety has expanded so in 2024, a dozen or more different models of EV will be spotted in any drive out.
Could have done more, but as an example here's a few on a little trip out on Monday including a first spot for me requiring a pullover and discrete photograph or two viewtopic.php?p=810433#p810433

First in the carpark spot for the thread, although has appeared once before in a dealer promotion display in a shopping centre.

Ahh! Automotive white goods in a fetching shade of brilliant white... A Hotpoint E-GTX if I'm not much mistaken...

Currently taking a friend for a hospital appt. Does this count?

I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure!
I used to ride on two wheels, but now I need all four!

Re: Electric Vehicles: What have you spotted?
For a joiner in, and not expecting an avalanche of FCF members being bothered to take the ball presented and run with it, happy to include it in the community ambulance category.
