    I drove into town today too. I'm down to half a tank of juice now and I've only topped it up with a half tank since before the September fuel shortage. I guess another top-up will get me through to Summer .

    im using a fiver a week at most at moment in leckky, and ive not got a plan so thats the usual power rate for house. warning the cabin up before you go out while sitting in house is a great way to go. then you'll get by mostly on the heated seat and steering wheel. found out that the air con heating is powered direct from traction battery, so why its more likely to affect range
