Bug*er all - the tree huggers convinced the government that they were eco friendly so no VRT and about €100 annual tax!!!!
Of course no reference to the rare earth metals in the batteries or the hassle of recycling OR the source of the electricity(coal fired in the main) !!
Nuts.....nuts. Cadbury’s take them and cover them in chocolate.! What's got a hazelnut in every bite? Squirrel sh*t.

Got to say I quite fancy a Tesla. The interior looks quite classy for a yank car.

I ask myself how many cancers have been caused by radioactive emissions and the earlier atmospheric atomic tests. Then there is the so-called spent uranium now used in amor piercing munitions. Well I suppose that is one way of getting rid of atomic power station waste, shoot it at people you don't like.

Back on topic with a plot twist: I thought that I would phone the Paris importer, Beaumont Automobiles, because they have a new P4 with a co2 list of 164 and my Carte Grise application is held up because they claim 217. Any way, the chap I spoke with asked if I had the 110 model, which I do and then explained that the reason my tax was so high is because I had had the discount, i.e. the £8000 worth of freebies from Morgan. I think that I am losing my mind. If anyone cares to check their site, the P4 is the one with led headlights.
