The other phone call I've made is to the garage.
We've had an email telling us to book our car in for a service now it's 12 months old.Except the manual says that servicing is due every 2 years.
I suspect this is a minor #scam on behalf of the main dealers - many people are used to annual services but this is no longer necessary with many EVs.If we'd have just taken the email at face value, we'd have had to pay for it because the #Motability lease will only cover the correct service intervals.

That's me finally ordered the #Kia #EV4 Air trim today, went for blue, the red was a bit too dark. Collection date is 30th June when my current #Motability lease comes to an end on my #Hyundai #Kona.
I'd say if yer on the #MotabilityScheme and able to order yer next vehicle now, get to yer local KIA dealer before Wednesday 1st April, when the advance payment is due to change. Given the popularity o this vehicle, I'm expecting that to increase. Don't forget to give it a test drive!

This year I'm handing back my #Hyundai #Kona #EV as agreed per the #Motability scheme. Been looking for another EV as it meets my needs, even though I don't have a home charger as I live in a first floor flat.
Had a test drive of a #Kia #EV4 yesterday, thanks to #FiskensOfForfar, such beautiful car, had to remind myself that I was in a GT-Line S model & that I won't get all the toys in the Air trim 🙌 Kia removed the GT-Line trim from the scheme yesterday morning. No idea why.

Sacha has left me in charge of the cat and the cooker while she is out getting her nails done (something I don't really understand, but it pleases her).
I am determined not to confuse the cat with the cooker when it comes to turning the vegetables on at the determined time.In the meantime, I'm sitting on the patio in the last of the afternoon sun listening to Bossa Nova and admiring my earlier gardening efforts.
We've had a message to say that Sacha's new car (#motability) should be ready for collection soon after the 10th June - so the excitement will be ramping up.
That poor EV charger need feel unloved no longer. -
A bit of a late start for me - but I've been busy adulting.
The solicitor I need to talk to about our daughter has finally, finally responded (with a half hearted apology). Now all we need to do is pay them and set up the appointment.
What other type of shady business requires payment up-front to talk about a job they might or might not be able to do?I've got the kitchen floor washed and the cat litter tray clean. The bins are emptied. Several small spiders are now homeless.
Talking of Kit the new #cat - she is going out into the garden for brief explorations, but not staying out much.
We've got a trip out this afternoon - we'll stop off at a new (to us) cafe for a light lunch at Ulverscroft Grange #Leicestershire - it has good reveiws from some of my Tai Chi pals. Afterwards - we're talking about changing Sacha's #motability car. We're hopinng to go full #EV with a #FordCapri
We've got a Tesco delivery due at around 6pm - and..... that's it for #Today.
Have a good 'un pals

Tomorrow is March.
Sacha has a #motability car lease which means that we have to change our car every three years - which is a mixed blessing.
There's a window between when she *can* order a new car and when she *must* have ordered one. That window opens at the end of March.Advice we're seeing from other Motability customers is that we need to have made our choice as soon as possible before the window opens - partly because of some extremely long delivery times.
Of course, the complication is that the list of available cars changes at the start of April!We've started looking at EVs and are currently smitten with the Hyundai Ioniq5, but we are going to look at the Skoda Enyaq and the badly named Ford Capri in the next couple of weeks.
Test drives upcoming! -
My wife was advised to start looking for her next #motability car much earlier than usual - so we've been to visit 4 car dealers in #leicester today.
Three of the four had no disabled parking places available for their customers.
Vauxhall & MG had cones preventing access to the disabled spaces.
Renault had no parking spaces for anyone - the only obvious disabled space had a demonstrator car parked in it.
Hyundai passed the test (and were extremely welcoming & helpful).I think this shows how they view not only their disabled customers, but all customers.
It's a disgrace.More next week.
