Also, I often feel like the cunt that I am driving around town spewing particulates and ~280g/km of CO2.
I get you - our Berlingo isn’t quite that bad but doesn’t feel right spewing fumes. Old Leafs from 2016 ish are getting affordable but the range/battery health is a bit of a crapshoot from what I’ve heard.

There's nothing wrong with the XC70 (it's a 2006-model), it's a fabulous car and does everything we need with aplomb, but it's also a hefty 1.8-ton AWD lump with a 2.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine and loves to chug the sauce. Also, I often feel like the cunt that I am driving around town spewing particulates and ~280g/km of CO2.
I did the napkin maths and we would save ~£100/month switching to leasing a home-charged EV all-in.
