Not a word since he contacted me to say he has a new 27″ imac that he can’t use and is still recovering from Covid and the associated complications. Fingers crossed he will be back soon.

Oh come on Glos Guy crack a smile, 520Nm of torque is BMW M3 country. It may be only a part time 300hp monster with no towing capabilities and questionable seats (and a Peugeot badge) but this could be a door opener to a whole new world!

You’ll often see PHEVs hogging 7kW AC posts in car parks, not even plugged in, just using the space for parking & blocking everyone else, and they have usually been keyed a few times in busier car parks.

Blimey, I thought you electric car people were all left leaning, aran knit wearing ecologists. (I exclude the Tesla crew obviously)

PS. This is my attempt at humour.

The 3008 PHEVs charge at 3.6kW maximum so don’t plug them into a rapid charger as your car may be damaged when you return. Stick with home charging & AC charge posts.

@gothitjulie  One can add a 7.4kW Monophase on board charger for £300. Would this enable faster charging?

Ford have ‘nailed it’ with the ST line trim for the Kuga and across the range. As Glos Guy states, the colour is the pick of the palette, since the facelift of the old Kuga and into this new shape, it really has excellent road presence.

You offer a very interesting version of reality, firstly I thought a Communist State promoted Socialism, public ownership etc, surely this goes against everything this Government stand for.
