Apologies for being slow (I know I’m not a petrolhead - I don’t sit in the driver’s seat permanently grinning, so I fail the test), but what is the attraction of a car that drives like a boat?

I imagine it brings on waves of nostalgia (mind you, nostalgia's not what it used to be (old one!)).
I think it's good that the manufacturers now have a target to work towards. That gives around 2-3 generations of battery tech to settle, so I don't think range anxiety will be such an issue. But the power infrastructure of this country needs a good seeing-too. It used to be a worry when people put the kettle on during the adverts in the evening, but now it's plugging the car into the fast charger when they get home from work. Or are we all going to be WFH from now on?
Sadly RJ I expect it will be the opposite, cashew nose keeps promising more money to everyone and having said motoring will be used to help pay (e.g. more tolls) I won’t be surprised to see car telemetry used to charge a fee per mile and the tech would enable them to know if we used lanes, B-roads or premium M or A roads. They could have different unit charges accordingly. It would all have the interesting result of sending us 100+ years backwards in staying local and travelling become an occasional thing unless essential.If they can produce an EV that:
- Doesn't make me a victim of 1984. Meaning the manufacturer/govermnent/far east state doesn't keep checking where/how/what I'm driving. Won't happen. Sad, as I dreamt of having a EV since the sixties.
That will short out the terminals and make your tongue go all zingy
Another reason to avoid Manchester right there.

In Asia any decent flat has dedicated car parking spaces underneath. We have 60 floor blocks in KL these dayswatching a very good canal boat programme the other night , as they went past a london area with a 52% rise in occupancy and thousands upon thousands in high rise flats , i wonder how they will charge up their vehicles !

The UK has not figured out how to do good hi-rise for some reason.

Not at all - in fact, you should start to sell tickets to the event.
Bit optimistic, even allowing for inflation. I was going to say that I'd happily pay 10p to see that, so there may need to be some negotiation here.I'm his Manager. Tickets on sale at £150.
