Reading through this thread, the thought struck me that I can maybe trade my old +8 (with it's moss box) for a new +4 and a little cash. That would give my old bones heated seats, aircon in summer and a new vehicle that doesn't need fettling every time it leaves the garage.
I paid 1720 pounds in 1973 for the car and after a rebuild in the 1980's its probably just about kept up with inflation.
On the subject of EV's I could use one for shopping and towing behind our motorhome but I feel they are impractical for travelling long distances. There a story out today about a trip from Chicago to LA in a Tesla with total of 7 hours recharge time in addition to normal food etc. stops. That sort of wasted time would drive me crazy.
