Me Too! some of the BYD's look ok for the price :unsure: I have a lot of customers that have E cars now.

I hear just pull the sim card out?
I wouldn't have a clue hey.

I've heard that electric cars can't be driven while they update, and unlike computer or phones can't be postponed.

That's why you pull the sim or disable the cars network connection, then your all good I hear, sounds about right but not 100% sure yet :unsure: it can't update or track you then I hear? :unsure:

I reckon there will be an affordable aftermarket conversion thing come along eventually so people can upgrade
their current ride to electric - just like the old LPG conversions.

It's already happening - but it's niche now and expensive. It would be a good way of utilising the current fossil fuel
fleet whilst they are still fine mechanically rather than just crushing them for scrap.

Cmon SunRa, when you can fuck a whole planet, what’s a bit of scrap.
I love my electric whipper sniper, thinking of a ride on, and an old Nissan Leaf could be fun. The electric motor bikes appeal too, battery times a bit short. Not sure about the privacy on the new EVs.

I reckon they will become less popular, particularly with all the cheap Chinese ones. BYD. I’d sooner own a series 1 Hyundai excel over one of those heaps of shit.

Wreckers won’t take em die to fire risk. They have the potential to burn your house down, and what are we going to do with all the old batteries?
