Am i massively overestimating the cost of an electric car ownership? To me they're still an out of reach proposition but tbf that would be true of any new/newish car.
I do a 10-20 mile trip most Sundays's with the dog and do a small handful of 3-400 mile trips during the year so fuel costs aren't really an issue. My car has massive loading capacity which is needed for the long trips so a small car wouldn't make sense for me. I have an idea of what it costs me to have my car sitting outside the house doing fuck all (insurance/tax/MOT/service items), ULEZ aside is it just the tax and occasional fuel costs i'd be saving on if i could go electric?
