It seems to me that straight line motorway driving is going to be boring and you'll be sitting fairly still in a fixed position.

In all your other cars (!) you have had to change gear which requires a bit of body movement.

Driving on 'normal' twisty roads you wouldn't be sitting still for long periods.

Maybe that's part of a solution - go a bit 'granny'?

 

I've become a satnav drone

Years ago used to drive all over delivering stuff for me owd man.. just wrote a route, took an atlas. I might try that again..

mway is becoming less effective, the route down was littered with speed cameras and queues.

I recall hitting west London from Notts in 1hr15 as a lad. Admittedly we were not obeying the limits but a super low drag calibra was great for that. It was late at night.

I'll pull some stats off Google. Was shit.

 

Never thought of a car as a exercise system lol , but I take you point , however on an M way even a manual ICE you don’t do much.

i like regular stops and a coffee so I really don’t see the issue that some anti BEV people come up with , range , fire , ect.

imdid drive once Chelmsford to Glasgow with one stop for fuel, but I was in my twenties then !

 

You got me thinking I should take my Gaggia.. then I thought maybe a travel kettle and one of those manual espresso things

 

Lol , camping , caravans and campers are not for me lol did camping years ago , just want a surf to serve me ! God what a snob , who cares lol

 

I'm a coffee Ponce

Hate Costa

 

You probably don't have a macbook, loafers or a tweed jacket with leatherette elbow patches either.

 

No. Hate apple too

There is a place in Notts err indoors won't go, called 200 degrees, good coffee but full of what she describes as 'laptop wankers'

I have no idea why you would take a laptop to a coffee shop

But I do love Monmouth.. I'm a contradiction lol. Dic for short

 

Yup. Coffee Hipsters.

Every other word is sustainable or synergistic.

Every time I hear it I want to ask them to qualify / quantify it.

W@nkers

 

Well , the Reno has arrived , and was a very pleasant drive across the fens despite a detour thanks to Google maps and us asking it a silly question.

by comparison to Qashqui , smooth quiet and very civilised and so far the tech has worked and been fairly simple to navigate.

Regen is interesting pretty much one pedal operation down to 3 mph , last bit touch brakes and it stop and applies a low level parking brake imperceptibly

plugged it in , thought shit , can’t unplug , worked it out lol obviously the lead is locked in ! Numpty user
