Presume you would charge for its use ? I rarely take the tesla when we go away as we need the space of the bigger car but I think I’d expect to pay for charging if I was using it?Workplace Charging Scheme application form

Yes, some of the charging points are programable, others you go public on line with them. This is the one Im looking at think I just set the rate via the app. Plan to add solar and batteries to that cottage too, once I can find an outfit who actually have half a clue and can answer a few simple questions!

I nearly bought a Niva brand new off the dealer forecourt. I liked the utilitarianess of it, but the engine was so coarse and vibratory, I didn't go through with it. A guy round here still has one.
Dont bother with vouchers, just supply a Halfords extension lead !

Do yourself a favour and go for a type 2 socket, not an attached lead. Cheaper purchasing and maintaining for yourself plus it allows those with older type 1 connectors on their cars to use their own convertor leads. Any EV driver should have a type 2 cable in the car these days.
American stuff does tend to be a bit cheaper built than the European equivalent - I used to drive a Ford Contour (Mondeo) back in 1999 (not exactly current, I admit
) fabric covered cardboard sun visors -which I thought were last used on a Triumph Dolomite in 1975 over here. I spent a couple of months using the key in the drivers door to lock it . . and then discovered it didn;t have central locking, and the other three doors had been open all the time 
My Dodge isn't exactly the last word in plushness - lot of plastic - but it has a big V8 up front that sounds nice, that rocks the car when it starts up

Indeed I do, a three-cylinder 2 stroke which [being 2-stroke] gave similar performance to a 6 cylinder straight 6. Mine was a Bank HP repossession [ergo really cheap
] and had a freewheel system built in, so if you timed it right clutchless changes were possible.It had some of the most comfortable seats I've ever experienced, bar none! [and I've owned a fair few marques/models over my motoring career....
. It saved my life when I ran it head-on into the front of a Council wagon [long story with which I won't bore you all with here]. I walked out of it with head cuts [always more claret than there need be....] and aches all over. Was taken to hospital and X-rayed sent home with head stitched and told to rest. There was a bump in the roof where my head had connected and the plastic rimmed/steel cored s/wheel was bent right over until the 2 halves were touching

The Electric Vehicle Charge Point Grant offers up to 75% of the costs of installing a smart charge point at home. You might be eligible for this grant if you live in a flat or rental property, and could receive up to £350 towards the cost of installing a charge point at a dedicated off-street parking site at your home.

I think you are long time behind. About a year, or more?

What has all the free domestic money gone? The grants finished?
We in bussiness - are getting 120% tax relief on green things still - there is still "free money" about for installing public charging points.

Bad form to quote one's own post, but I was too late to edit.
Meant to say that it had a separate chassis of iirc c. 50mm square box tube, and importantly shaped like an egg with the small end pointed forwards. If you've ever tried to break an [uncracked!!
] egg you'll know it's almost impossible with average hand strength. The whole from of mine was bend up like a snooty nose - that's what saved me, I reckon in anything 'normal' I'd have been in a box. Who wore seat-belts in those days aaaanyways? 
More interesting [fun

Aye, especially if you [or a previous owner] had allowed carbon build-up in the manifolds.exhaust system.
Only see a couple of two stroke cars - Saab 96 later three cylinder one and a Trabant (this was dead and being used as chicken coup)
