I’m guessing because of the very limited LPG infrastructure and very little support from the manufacturers. I think most LPG vehicles in the UK during its brief popularity in the 90s were conversions rather than off the shelf.
Is there a reason why LPG never took off in the UK? I pay €20 to do something like 300km in an Audi A3.
Just fuelled up and now going home
Price of secondhand EVs bombing - causing lease /pcp deals some real issues - fortunately if you have a fixed buyback the lease companies will be taking a hit - however new agreements will likely spike in price within a few months
Mmm I thought Tesla would have retained more than others because of the range but there again the price of a new battery is in the 10 of thousands apparentlyTesla via work scheme has gone from £520/mth about 2 months ago to knocking on for £700/mth.
Guess they will be buying Chinese or £20 grand European offerings then?Tesla via work scheme has gone from £520/mth about 2 months ago to knocking on for £700/mth.

Batteries last 300,00+ miles, so many myths and nonsense about.Mmm I thought Tesla would have retained more than others because of the range but there again the price of a new battery is in the 10 of thousands apparently
How much do you think when they reach those milealages, do you think everyone will stick to manufacturers guidelines during their ownership?Batteries last 300,00+ miles, so many myths and nonsense about.
Most UK EV's have a minimum 8 year, 100,000 mile battery warranty. The trend increasing, MG Australia offer 10 years, 150,000 miles, MG Thailand unlimited mileage, lifetime warranty.

Lots of the so called safety kit is a bit ott. My car keeps bleeping to remind me that the car I know is on the inside lane to my left is, in fact, on the inside lane to my left. Typically when exiting a roundabout in to a dual carriageway. It startles me tbh, and I have to look about to see if it’s something else I haven’t spotted hence diverting my attention from the manoeuvre I’m half way through raising potential for an accident. Lane assist comes in even when indicating left to return to the left hand lane after completing an overtake. Why? This is the only car with the feature that has done that.
All part of the process of softening everyone up for autopilot driving systems.
Ashley Neal, a driving instructor with a YouTube channel, likened Tesla Autopilot to a really bad driver with incredible reflexes. Can’t be good for the peace of mind.God yes, I hate all of that stuff. The only thing I'd have is the automatic braking that kicks in if you're about to ram someone, and cruise control for keeping your speed down through the roadworks. That's it.
I can't bear the automatic handbrake on our Citroen, it either stays on when you don't need it, or goes off when you don't expect it. It's already cost me a few bob in an embarrassing roll down the drive and into the house, when I wasn't even in the car! Reversing downhill is stupidly dangerous.
Ratchety, clicky things for me please. Proper knobs and dials and none of your touchscreen rubbish, thank you. Harumph.
And if I'm moving into your lane with my old banger, honk!
i thought the batteries could'nt hold as much the older they get ?
You just need to wait for the apocalypse then use it as a power bank and buy a new one,or get the horse out of the stable's!I think it's generally considered to be around 10% less after 10 years.
Which is pretty decent I'd say.

It’s because of the depreciation, residual values sinking continually.Our work scheme the prices are ridiculous, even a small EV with a limited range was £600+ per month.

Not sure which specific model you’re referring to there but you can get them a lot less than that direct from Tesla
Surely they can’t change their mind once you’ve signed the deal? Seems a proper rip off.
