Gone are the days of EV’s being cheaper than Diesel! £42 to top up is absolutely crazy! Of course it’s fine if you can charge at home but no good on rapids etc.

Hi Lindsey, apologies from my wife and I for not saying hello at The White Rose. We were in the dark red Jaguar Sportbrake that parked next but one to you. We knew we recognised you but it was out of context. We didn't expect to see you in The White Rose carpark on a very wet weekday lunchtime. We didn't notice the reg number either. It was only when you and we had scurried into Marks & Spencers out of the rain that my wife and I looked at each other and said together "Roaming Radford's!". By then you'd disappeared into the store. Once again, our apologies for not saying hello and how much we loved the Buzz.

Nice wee blog thanks for sharing but, unfortunately electric vehicles are most definately not for me. Crazy prices to charge on a motorway and you certainly do not get value mileage for the charge cost when compared to the mileage from traditional fuels. The mileage and charging needs would drive me crazy, it reminds me of driving a V8 that didn't like to pass a petrol station. Enjoy and stay safe ❤👍

Great vlog, enjoyed the facts about charging the buzz, be interesting to know how much it costs to charge at services. (I’ve just binged Bridgerton) 😂

Great vlog Lindsey. On the contrary it was nice seeing you vlog solo for a change. No disrespect to Steve or the kids intended. Not having an electric vehicle myself, you showed us that your battery charge was £42.00. Do different charge stations charge different rates 18:28 like diesel and petrol stations? Have a wonderful week!

Yes Howard! They do charge different amounts. Sometimes different amounts at different times of the day. Tesla chargers tend to be the cheapest, but they aren’t all open to other cars.

That’s public charging. Charging at home, which is 98% of our current travel it’s a fraction of that cost.

How was your head in the morning Lyndsay? Average person breaths 4800l per night and the ID buzz is 3900l plus a bit for the cab…. I suspect unless you have active ventilation the size of the van will mean CO2 levels might be climbing by morning? First symptoms of CO poisoning are headaches.

I’m really envious of that bus its gorgeous ….but electric, that would be a nightmare for me..until a full charge does 600 miles im uninterested,also until the charging infrastructure competes with fossil fuel garages…and its as efficient per mile as diesel..and you get a free coffee per charge..

It’s sad that you need a spreadsheet to drive somewhere. I drove a Tesla Model 3 for 4 years and never planned by spreadsheet. I used the inbuilt navigation and that worked out where I needed to stop to charge. So much easier when the car maker understands what an EV driver needs.

@RoamingRadfords

Welcome along, I think you may be new to our channel? Our other cars for the last 10 years have been Teslas. It’s not sad, it’s funny! Steve created the spreadsheet purely for research purposes for these videos. It’s nothing at all to do with range anxiety or worry. It’s also interesting to track prices and track the growth of our charging network.

Love the video but I must say you need to keep your 🤲 on the wheel and your 👀 on the road.

Hi Lynsey £42.82 is about the same as 6 gallon of diesel average car doing about 30 mpg = 180 miles So is elec vehicles the way to go as not cheap to run Yes better for the planet but I think charge points need to be cheaper so that more people will buy elec vehicles But well done great clip as always 👍

Yes, I can see that. But we usually charge at home for a fraction of the price. The majority of people don’t do hundreds of miles every single day, and if they did, they would likely start with the day/journey with a battery fully charged up at home. 😊

I still can’t get excited about full electric as I felt quite stressed watching you having to find charging points and waiting around for it to charge, we have hybrid car and love it a lot more stress free. Did enjoy your video but don’t think you really should be commentating while driving, I know it’s not illegal to do what you are doing but would say not something you should be promoting as you can’t be fully concentrating on the road while doing so, you may be a good driver but it’s all the other numpties that we come across daily that you should be worried about

I do not like Electric cars, I find them so stupid. You have to wait so long for a recharge. When with gas cars you just go up to a pump and put gas in and away you go. And a 77 % charge only last 2.5 hrs. Just such a ridiculous thing to ever be invented. I hope to never have to drive one. If going on a long trip would take forever to get there with having to recharge few times. In Canada they are now being brought in and they are hoping by 2035 that they will only sell electric cars. Also if you ever need a new battery it will cost an arm and a leg to get one. Just so so stupid.
