I know, Iāve seen you pulled up outside Morrisseyās
Apart from the cost of these machines to the buyers thereās quite a considerable outlay for garages as well. Our local garage lad was telling me that heās starting to see an occasional one arriving in to be serviced now.
Heās had to make a big investment for same. His ordinary tools wonāt do so he has to have a complete new set capable of dealing with 1000 volts , spannerās , sockets, the works. Special mat for them to park on whilst in the shop.
Mechanics donāt want to evolve lads, scrap
EVs immediately to save them the trouble.
Fucking hell

Mostly replacing shock absorbers, brake discs, etc.
The weight of the battery and the state of roads here mean quite a turnover of them. He also reckons they go thru tyres fairly quick.
That was all included on his dealer package & subsidised.
He is also sole selling dealer for a considerable area so heās creaming it in sales & margins.
He is also charging a small fortune to service said cars at a considerably lower labour time.
He also doesnāt have to pay for removal of used oils etcā¦

Correct on tyres.
Iāll be sticking to diesel for the foreseeable.
Heās not a dealer. Doesnāt sell any vehicles, just services and repairs.
Would you pick up a year old ID4 for a song ?

Tyres is definitely an issueā¦. But on many fronts.
Weight of EVās definitely an issue but not all EVās are tank size & weight.
Most of those whinging incessantly about tyre wear on their EV or Cage are buying shit tyres at budget prices.
A large percentage of population are useless drivers and destroy tyres with their inept driving style/ability

Have you looked?
Why? This lad has never bothered with car sales. Heās happy out for the last 30 yrs just operating as a garage.
Good operator and mechanic,
We have a very high proportion of people who tap on their brakes every two seconds ā¦
