Same. The first one was a box of 20+ single serving guacamole pots. It was excellent for a non freshly made version and we had it with chips or raw veg most days for the next couple of weeks. Despite looking for it every time we go back, it hasn't been available since that first time.
I'm a lovely person to everyone until they show me that they don't deserve it. After that, they are dead to me. Unfortunately, one of the people who has shown me that they don't deserve my time or respect is me, so i treat myself like shit. This does not work out so well for me.
Thanks for the reply. As someone else mentioned, charging speed seems very important for this use case.
Thanks for the advice. I've had a play with ABRP and the options are endless! I think we can mak a BEV work, but it'll be a change of mindset, topping up when doing the stops that you tend to do on long drives, rather than doing a complete fill up once a day. My gut feeling about PHEV is that you get the worst of both worlds, rather than the best of both, still reliant on petrol, but with added weight and bulk of batteries.
We've currently got an old Honda Jazz that will be my car after I pass my test later this year, after I've been qualified for 12 months they will put me onto the insurance for the company car and we will probably get rid of the Jazz. We will probably get an old second hand BEV that I can use as a commuter if we need it.
My wife is getting a new job, and a company car is part of the package. The main issue is that the car must be either BEV or PHEV. She will have access to a range of options via their fleet rental system, but details are still TBC, but at an estimate, it'll be somewhere around £40,000 final price. There's a number of options in the price range, so we're looking at various models and have kicked some wheels in showrooms, mainly small SUVs, think Kia Niro/Fisker Ocean/Peugeot 2008 as representative models.
The big question is whether a BEV or PHEV is best suited for her. The company has 5 locations, situated (approx) 40 (base office), 50, 100, 190, 210 miles away from our home. Our expectationis that she will be spending 4 days a week in the base office, and driving to one of the other offices on a rotating basis on the other day, so 80 miles a day minumum and there will be 400 mile days at least twice a month, all on 70mph motorways. We are in the process of getting a driveway and charger installed, but currently do not have either (ETA 2/3 months.) There are public chargers available to us within a mile or so, and the office locations have chargers installed in 3 of the 5 locations (base office, 50 and 190 miles away, not in 100 or 210, so would rely on public charging en route.) The battery only range of PHEVs is too short for any of these commutes, so we'd still be using petrol regularly; but relying on public charging for a BEV on long distances is still a lottery in the UK and being late for a meeting because of charging is not a good look.
In terms of finances, we expect a BEV will be around £800-1000pa cheaper in taxes than a PHEV. The company will pay for any home charging, provide a payment card for public charging/petrol fillups, then bill her for personal use (don't know what rate that will be yet).
What would your thinking be in this situation? What else should we be considering in making the final decision?
11th September 2001 broke the internet. Every news site collapsed into text-only versions, email servers got overloaded as people tried to contact everyone they knew in NY/DC. I remember getting updates via a gossip forum that happened to have a user with a Reuters connection who copied the news as it came in. The BBC and CNN sites were completely useless.

Humourless gits who hate any vague criticism of the area, think they ae better than anyone else and should be an independent country? Sounds about right.
