One happy thing I saw was an enormous queue of tesla and the like waiting for a sip of electricity. With an ICE car you just roll in and roll out like normal. I don't think the threat to 'our type' of car will be the sudden proliferation and overnight excellence of EV. It will be the demonisation of their engines and exhausts, despite there being no viable alternative...yet.
I like this thread and the people herein.
Thanks.
Anecdotally, I saw quite a few Scandinavian registered Teslas and other EVs as far south as Dubrovnik and Montenegro this summer. That demonstrates a certain amount of viability.I like this thread and the people herein.
Thanks.

I live about a mile from a Tesla dealership up t'north and there are at least 30 parked along the main road towards it. You wouldn't see 30 Ford Fiestas on the same stretch.

The Norwegian government heavily incentivised their people to move to EVs, and at the time I think Tesla was the only viable option.
EV's are very popular indeed due to tax breaks, my wife works with a lot of Norwegians, her boss previously has an Audi A6 (not an S6) that cost almost £100k due to import taxes. He's now got an E-tron that was quite a bit cheaper due to the tax breaks for green cars.But it's apparently all stopping, the take up of EV's has been so high that they're struggling without the usual road tax equivalent as EV's don't pay it.
In 2016 I rode up to the Nordkapp on my motorbike, I remember noticing a Tesla in Oslo as they were still quite rare here, then it went past again, then it went past but had changed colour!

If in a few years they make EV motoring approximately as expensive as ICE motoring, then now they have a nation of EV converts and almost nobody is going to want to change back. Job jobbed.

This valuation is sounding an awful lot like asking the sale price
Alternatively, of course, it could just be an ask about what they're worth.Meanwhile on the Fast Estate thread, there is a chap 130% hawking his 130% overpriced S6 Avant, zero eyes batted, and and there has been a long attempt to sell a CLS estate, again, silence.
I was wondering if it was time for a comeback, seeing as thread is now somewhat lonely, alas it seems I'll just delete my account, and bid you all farewell.

Press the 'Report' link and the moderation team will take a look at it. They rely on users reporting inappropriate posts - they can't read all of the threads.
