Only a few minutes away from me. I'll have a look if you're interested.

I might be interested myself! The home charger has failed after having a new meter installed earlier this week and we've got to drive nearly 200 miles today then about 550 tomorrow.

Thanks for the offer, I have too much stuff already though
The mot history isn't too bad but it runs out 22nd Jan. so might undo it being cheap. From the pics it looks unabused and tidier than many. DVLA lists it as beige.
Charger fail is a pita and that's a lot of miles to have to do in this weather. Good luck and safe travels.

Thanks. My wife said that the meter fitter made a comment about a clamp being fixed to a cable and that he hadn't seen it before. Found a post on an I-Pace forum last night that a clamp had been taken off and it was disconnecting to the charge. Checked the meter box this and this had been removed and he'd also broken the clip one side of the what is the CT clamp to control the power through the cable . Had to use electrical tape to keep it together so the metal contact on each side of the clamp are fixed and it's now working.

Might need a quick charger somewhere today but we'll at least have full charge when we leave tomorrow morning. This includes a 5am departure to collect our new puppy in Norfolk so extra stops aren't what's needed!

Aerodynamically that looks terrible. And I’ve a nagging feeling I’ve posted it before.

Nothing that a dozen rolls of gaffer tape couldn't sort and increase the load space!

Just seems that most using the platform seem to be traders.

The Touareg is a bit tempting, but I'm fairly sure that anyone who says "I have no ideal what it will need to pass an MOT" probably does and that's exactly why they're selling it....
