    Electric Highway App- Ecotricity- money for nothing

    Tried and failed to use a charger at Pease Pottage in UK on Sunday. Downloaded the free app to begin the process. Couldn’t get it to work so I drove further and found a pub nearby with a 50kw charger there so sat in the pub drinking tea while it charged. Have looked at my bank account today to...

    Cayman courtesy car.

    Sheila (My 4S) is in for her update and they’ve kindly given me a new Cayman as a courtesy car (it only had 32 miles on the clock).

    BMW i8

    Parked up in a carpark beside a white I8 today. I had originally specced a Jaguar Ipace HSE before opting for the 4S and had also been wistful / thinking about an I8. Sitting in my Carmine Red 4S today I had absolutely no regrets about getting the Taycan. Has anyone had an I8 and then a Taycan?

    I can see on the app lots of how to videos etc. I didn’t get a drivers manual with my new 4S that was delivered on 23rd Dec. Should I have received one with the car?
