Title: Electric motors
Post by: john m on February 06, 2019, 10:06:58 pm
Big Dommos youngfellas youngfella was trying to sell a part worn i phone said he got it last year and updated to a newer one .Gloria  Dommos sisters youngones youngone said "I wouldnt buy a part worn Phone you never know how fucked up the battery is they are worthless ".Made me think would an electric car have any resale value after the warranty is over ?So do you need to write off the value of the Electric car .Two or three year old car would have a reasonable trade in value but what about an electric motor ?

150,000 kilos is almost what I put on my MKII Octavia for the 5 years I owned it... so it'd work for me I guess.

I'd read the small print - probably taxis are excluded?
