    It does. My man couldn't source a 2nd hand one. I wouldn't mind but the thing still works. Just the "glass" is broken.

    €300 for the lens of my back light on the Toyota. I reversed into the wall ages ago. Still it's the only thing that didn't pass the NCT on the 2012 car with over 240K kmh on it.

    The internet is good for something. I read about a trick for defrosting car windows and it's deadly. Fill a plastic bag with hot water. Then rub the bag all over the windows. Warms your hands too.

    Had the lecky for a few weeks now and getting the hang of the charging, range etc. We've done about 800km in it so far which is the range of the Avensis with a full tank. The last time we filled that it was €100 in diesel. Rough calculations are that we've used €30.69 in electricity. It's...

    Wife has just gone to Dublin in this thing. Should be interesting, she is someone who doesn't like to let the diesel car go below a 50% full tank!

    Got it! Now just to wait until the novelty of a new reg wears off. We've never had a new car before and I'm stupidly rehearsing ways of downplaying it in my head.

    There is no way to change plan to smart meter in the dumb EI website. In frustration I signed up as a new customer. ZERO response, automated or otherwise. I just spend a couple of days phoning them and eventually got through to someone who looked me up on the system. "oh I see you applied back...

    Forget everything I said. I've just been back on the site and I can not work out how to do it. I found a page by accident and can't get back to it. So I did what any sane person would do... and wrote to them telling them how unusable their site is.... Stay tuned

    Finally activated our smart electricity meter in advance of this yoke arriving. I probably should have consulted the crowd before I did but I went for the nighttime boost option. Electricity is cheaper at night and even less between 2 and 4am. Frantically researching how to programme the...
