I bought a brand new Kia EV3 last month and love it.

It's my first all electric car. Was reticent to take the EV plunge but doubly glad now

nice bit of profiteering going on

They should not be allowed to increase prices on current stock they are holding.


Actually, I just drove past the garage I normally fill up at, and they're still at £1.32/litre (what it was before Iran all kicked off), so not all garages are profiteering.


I've still not seen anyone panic buying.

No problems at all in Eastbourne or surrounding area.. people seem to be behaving sensibly.

I've got a hybrid with 550 miles in the tank.. will easily last a month.

There will always be a black market though. Get your toilet rolls from an oik at the Hammy End!

Recycled toilet rolls are selling well apparently.

Spend 30 mins or more  to save £2, but happily pay £80 to watch Fulham play West ham...

Especially if you've used the bogs in the hammy end. Plenty of bum wipes and disinfectant needed!!
