Thinking of an electric such as a Mokka
Any recommendations for a house charger?
Any feedback on electric cars, only going to Aberdeen now and again and driving locally.
Got a diesel at moment
I see the rising fuel prices post below
Thanks

On the electric car - love it
On the home charger, We got ours fitted through octopus energy, it’s an ohme one (or something like that)
We also went into their cheap overnight tariff so it will only charge up overnight on a much cheaper rate
Ours has a really small range (about 120 miles) and never had any issue with going to Glasgow and stopping off in Stirling and Livingston en route)
We have done a few long distance journeys (above our range) but 15 mins in any Starbucks charger and we’re back to full capacity

Have had a Pod Point charger for 3 years and had no issues.
On a car Brian unfortunately the range advertised won`t be anything close to it in the Scottish climate, I accept this though and it shouldn`t put you off.
Compared to the diesel I had before, I cover the same miles and it costs me about one third of the price and I don`t use any special rates (i.e overnight charging at 7p with some providers) otherwise I`d be less than half that again. I wouldn`t go back to a combustion engine.
