The issue for me is leaving it on charge for a few months, or charging to 100% and unplugging and leaving? I really would like to go EV for the daily hack, but reality is we currently (apart from current Covid restrictions) go away for 4 months. How would the battery cope? BMW, Nissan and also JLR d...

It would always be garaged at home over the winter period. Is there a conditioner setting on EV chargers? Yes, the car’s battery management system takes care of everything. No need for a separate battery conditioner when the car is plugged in. Sorry MCDK, we should probably start a new topic as we ...

I just love the added light which the Panroof gives. I test drove a couple of Macans without and they seemed really dull/dark.

I just love the 911 in that colour. Gave the Macan a good clean on Friday before doing the weekly click and collect. Now it's in the garage under a cover with a battery conditioner attached as we are going home delivery from now on, so no idea when it will be used next🙁 That's the F-Type on SORN, ga...
