I am thinking of buying a new MG4 long-range EV 280 miles and 30 mins to charge from 10% to 80% and reckoned to be as good as a VW

The MG4 is quite nice, I am almost tempted to suggest the wife gets one as her next new car. I know you were asking about scooters but I get about 88-94 mpg on my NC750x which has a 3 gallon tank inc. reserve.

Yeah - just saw a Youtube vid on that myself.....but I'm not sure whether that's a real life range or not. I need something that can guarantee me a miniumum of 280 miles at 70mph the entire way in winter, with lights, heating, wipers on. Not that I can afford £30k+ for a car anyway....

Hi, not been on for a few days, just read about your dodgy ticker Data, hope you are on the mend. all the best

Thanks OneFoot. Not really mending just yet. Having my situation managed until surgical team can take me later in week. But I think so far I'm stable, sort of. You take care.

I think this needs a new topic, Data.

I'm concerned that we're discussing your health under a topic called, "Motorcycle ban!"

Keep us all up to date, please. I assume that Mottza has your number and relevant details.

And, to risk paraphrasing almost everyone you've seen recently, rest up!

I had to wait for a while after my heart attack in 2018 and it's not a pleasant experience. Had the attack on Wednesday, from the early hours, diagnosed lunchtime-ish. Angiogram on the Friday then ambulanced to Sheffield for the stent and ballooning on the following Monday. That weekend I was a nervous wreck.

Fingers crossed you get swift surgical resolution Data

Thanks capitano. Yes Mottza has my details, we're conversing. I'm going dark. Being prepped for surgery so won't be about for a little while. Thanks everyone. Speak again soon.
