We don’t have a driveway either, we do have a drop kerb and a parking spot for a small/med car outside the front of the property (which i don’t park my civic on to much hassle or my other cars i had since we moved to this property) Be easy if it was say a fiat 500 but thats to small for our needs.
The gas meter is on that front wall also. So i really don’t know if they’d fit it there. Plus our house has an old style fuse box and we had smart meters fitted by british gas a while back and they’ve never worked. They would not connect to the network, So we still have to give readings for the bills.
Guess we might see when the time comes to renew, but i can see, many issues ahead for many who, might not have this or that and also have limited means. Plus for various reason I’m doing a lot less mileage on a regular basis, than i was and i don’t see that changing. Only done 8+k since june 2020. Not having the abilty to charge at home, is deffo a deal breaker for me.. Maybe one solution might be to get a small car on the scheme and then just hire something for the times we need a bigger car.
