Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    I've had my 2012 Prius Plug-in for over five years now, and in that time it's possibly lost about 5-10% battery capacity, though it's hard to tell with the vagueness of the range estimation. I charge it almost every day, sometimes more than once a day, though I haven't had a regular commute in the past year and a half.

    And on longer journeys I still get around 70 MPG by utilising the battery on lower speed sections, though if it's all motorway there is less opportunity for that.

    I find that once there is a grant or allowance for something, that item or service increases in price to absorb most or all of the grant/allowance. Look at the B2W scheme, which seemed to increase the price of bicycles across the spectrum once introduced. Same happened with house prices when first time buyers were exempted from stamp duty on properties up to a value of €317500 back in 2004... house prices increased overnight to this level.

    I would not have thought there is €600 in labour or ancillary parts to install an EVSE at a property.
