Don't worry you are not alone. When i got he Enyaq in Sept I had a brief panic moment looking for a heated mirror switch a few weeks later. Was used to them coming on with the front screen in my Ford. Now I keep forgetting to turn them off 🙂- Heated mirrors

Apologies it's slightly over the £24,000 max but maybe a haggle? https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202409284596472?journey=FEATURED_LISTING_JOURNEY&sort=price-asc&twcs=true&searchId=f793f4c4-a490-4f7c-982c-43970c7ba8b6&advertising-location=at_cars&make=Skoda&model=Octavia&page=3&postcode=m45 6dj&price-from=22500&price-to=25000&fromsra- the truth about electric cars

The price per kw could also be artificially high because they can get away with it. It will help them show potential future profits based on those prices, increase the value of the company so the venture capitalists who funded the set up can make a killing when they sell up and move on to the next money maker?- the truth about electric cars

On registration vehicles over 255g/km will pay £5,490 2nd year onward will be same as evs at £195 and subject to ecs if over £40,000 for years 2 to 6 again the same as evs. As most of those vehicles will be paid for by the general public in goods and services purchased or tax credits on expenses i don't think it will make any difference.- the truth about electric cars

I don't think i would bother to go out on my Christmas day to save £5- Ice to Enyaq iv
If you describe the way that is achieved and the costs involved in setting it up i may be able to explain the barriers to it being available to others. But my first one is that I cannot park the car at least 7.5 metres away from combustible materials of my house to charge it overnight. https://electrical.theiet.org/wiring-matters/years/2023/98-november-2023/electric-vehicle-charging-point-fire-safety-considerations/- Ice to Enyaq iv
Third month stats from the car 332mile @ 2.9m/kwh = 114.48 kw? x 25.01p = £28.63 although my meter readings suggest we have used 208kw more than this period last year = £52.02 (caveat to the meter readings this years covers an additional 6 days ) My Mondeo averaged 35 mpg = 9.48 gallon or 42.68l@£1.387 = £59.19 Long term guessometer now reset. Stat from the GOM the car has been on for 27.20 hours and averaged 12mph.- the truth about electric cars

It would be a service this year then the mot next yes One EV inspection service, MOT, Pollen filter and Brake Fluid Change. Under 1 year: £366.00- Skoda Bolton
Service plan including MOT £366 or £30 a month for 12 months. Can only assume it takes more than an hour because the majority of the cost must be Labour?- the truth about electric cars

The Nox reduced by the egr is significant but it comes at a cost in fuel economy If the vehicle is not serviced correctly a diesel that is not burning the fuel efficiently will choke itself to death with the soot and get them off the road.- the truth about electric cars

Transport for Greater Manchester’s procurement plan envisages the purchase of a further 250 electric buses by 2027, which, like the 100 vehicles already delivered, have been co-financed by central government as part of the City Region Sustainable Transport Settlement programme. Stagecoach plans to put a further 170 electric buses into service over the same period. Stagecoach operates various routes in the transport area. ADL and BYD had already jointly delivered 32 double-deckers, also of the Enviro 400 EV type, to Manchester in 2021/22.- Skoda Bolton
