We have to wait until mid-May to order ours – would order it today if we could.
Crossing our fingers that the AP doesn’t go up dramatically.
The N Line S is basically the Ultimate trim + optional packs + sporty trim – it’s an excellent price for the ridiculous amount of kit.
From what I understand, you always get the electricity for 7p/kWh (in the form of a bill credit).
if you tell OVO you need it charged in 8 hours and it will take 8 hours, it will start charging immediately even if electricity is expensive for them at the moment – but you won’t pay any extra.
if you tell OVO you need it charged in 24 hours, they will hold the charge until electricity is cheaper for them, but will make sure the car is charged for when you specified.

Ended up ending lease early and got a Hyundai Tucson, which has been a worse car in every way. in hindsight, I wish we’d of extended the lease on the Tarraco.

Spend some time on A Better Route Planner, put in some long journeys that you may make and see what charging stops it suggests.
It will suggest the public Tesla chargers, which are by far the cheapest, and will automatically exclude the Tesla-exclusive chargers.
If you can charge at home, an EV makes sense. If not, I would suggest a hybrid.
What problem do caravans pose? They are no slower-moving than lorries or horse boxes. They are not dangerous if pulled with care and consideration. The road isn’t a race track, it’s to be shared with all users.

I suspect we are at the MTPLM, as we do carry quite a lot in the ‘van.
