I public charged my C350e 3 times in a 48 hour trip to Scotland at New Year. Still yet to do so in 5 months in England! Shows what a bit of subsidy and incentive can achieve.

The odd thing was I don’t think I spotted another PHEV or EV on the road in Scotland. There was a car park with a few Leaf’s in at the Fife Council Depot I charged at, but didn’t see any on the road.

Haha, I know what you mean. I walked home after a session in the pub the other night and in the 3 mile trek I saw more Mazda RX8s than PHEVs or BEVs.

I’m using the Polar 3 month trial but can’t see me renewing when I have to start paying for it, the battery on the Mini is just too small to justify the expense of charging away from the home.
