Easter weekend, central and west Scotland, not in my ev

Featured Replies

Edit .  Sorry I was posting in the EV section.   Electric car Real world .    A mod might moved it..      Thank goodness I am driving a diesel this weekend.  Left the Corsa in Edinburgh. 3/4 charged. Picked up estate car & grand children and hound eventually 30 miles and a few hours later headed to Glasgow and on for Ayrshire.  2.10 pm left Newbridge.  There was a crash at Harthill and a lane closed and then hell in Glasgow with traffic and at 4 pm I was leaving Glasgow on the A77 and I get a call.  Key in car for a flat with 2 cats in and security fob on keys, no duplicate.  So via Hamilton I got to Euro central.  Back to Leith.  And 6pm set off again.  Easier this time and 120 miles in 2 hours.  But comfort, no wuckin furries other than. Kerbing the huge alloys and the length of the thing for a kerb side parking space.  Waze and Google was crap trying to find Wishaw to get a route to Edinburgh and it was a Friday and Easter and blue lights everyplace.  750 miles range when I picked up the 520 estate and tonight after 600 miles still showing 225 miles. Doing average 56 mpg. Ps. My son said he would drive to meet me in the Corsa on Friday to get the keys maybe without me coming into Edinburgh. With 99 miles range showing I said not to be daft as he would likely end up out of charge and without being able to leave it for me with enough charge when I get back.    As it is looking at how the reports are charger wise and for someone new to it that was a good call.  There is 1 rapid near where the car is at a LIDL. So I will be charging at Edinburgh Airport before heading North.
