    Our Leaf still hasn't arrived, we were told it would be May. A friend who ordered a Hyundai EV two weeks after us has just got a call to say that ALL orders are now cancelled. Also, sold the Fiesta today, €1900. Nice chap bought it.

    Just spent a few quid getting the Fiesta ready to sell. Full service, new filters, timing belt replaced, fan belt replaced, new wipers, battery issue sorted. Washing the fuck out of it now. Bleedin' car is in great condition now. Going to try and get 2k for it. Fingers crossed. Thumped rates btw.

    I can't remember the official name, I just know that it's the highest spec of the smaller battery. Things I've learnt: people love to tell you their opinions on electric cars.

    Beloved Fiesta is finally on the way out. I'm going to get the alternator fixed/replaced then sell it. Or if anyone wants to buy it with a dodgy alternator, that's cool. Seriously, I'd take €700 for it today. Diesel, 2006 Fiesta "a miser on fuel". Or you can buy it for over 1k when I fix it...

    2012 Avensis Estate. Anyway we realised we have over a year left on the nct so we'll keep looking instead. There is a couple on Done Deal but are different colours so would still cost a few hundred to paint.
