It’s an interesting looking car Steve but not practical for me driving around the roads of West Sussex (even an ID.7 is too big for me!). Incidentally we were shown this (pic attached) by VW at our annual ID meet in Locarno last month.

I’m reading this tweet here today. And I’ll leave “range in a milk float” at that!

Seems ok on my app Andrew.

This morning arriving from HKG A350

It flew close to my house!

Very sad news I went there with my grandchildren for the first time just a few months ago 🥲

Despite only being a thirty minute hop from Jersey to Gatwick was treated to excellent service and a lovely bite to eat from Claudia and her team on 29th March. Thank you @British_Airways #avgeek

Yeah I flew back Economy from Cancun on BA the other week and it’s wasn’t too bad but admittedly I had a nice exit row seat. Never flown Emirates but I saw their aircraft parked up at Gatwick yesterday 🥲

Hi @British_Airways belated thanks to Captain Helen Berry and the entire crew for a superb flight BA243 to Mexico City on 16th Feb. ✈️👍

Here she is. Special thanks to Tesla Gatwick.

Great news. Although I had a wonderful flight CUN LGW Wednesday night on MMD though.

Spent a wonderful 5 days last week in the historic centre of Mexico City & the Zopolo Simon. Went day out to Coyocan & Xochimilco. Now in Playa del Carmen. Wonderful @British_Airways flight out to MEX & looking forward to a great flight home from Cancun.

I bought my second ID3 in August Will. This time a 79kwh Pro S Match.

Agree 👍

I’m one of those berks Rich!👋

Is this far enough?😉

@RSymonsLTD sincere thanks for organising the event today Richard and lovely to meet you. I also met some lovely like minded visitors too. Best wishes for the next 15 years. 👋

Saw his brother at Terminal 4 last week!

Here’s the last post at the Menin gate in Ypres and a memorial to all those “Indian immigrants” that came over to fight for the commonwealth.

When it first happened en route to Tuscany in my old 2022 model ID3 two years ago scared the life out of me! This year in the new ID3 Pro S I was prepared. (Pic is top of descent).

A lot of British Asians do Rupert-it was independence from us. Should you visit India you’ll find it a learning experience. If you’re not up to it maybe visit the Indian war memorial Brighton or the Menin Gate Ypres in memory of the Indians that died for our country. Namste 🙏

It’s ok. I have found another route via “Wisembach” on 4/5 Sept. Only an extra 10 mins. 👍

I quite like the compactness of the A319, it’s a shame they’re probably going soon. 🥲. Flew to/from Pisa on one last month.

Well the paperwork shows it as a 2026 model year. Also that is was “born on the 4th of July”. And I think Shergar🤣

Obviously not calibrate to my driving style yet but my new 2026 79kwh ID3 has a promising range (I chickened out of getting a Tesla like yours Graeme !)

Well done Mark I’ve just subscribed too. Ps picked up my new 2026 VW ID3 Pro S Match 79kwh last week. 😉

@UKVolkswagen hi very pleased with my new ID3 Pro S which I picked up Thursday. However still waiting for my £500 charging credit to be applied to my WeCharge account. I phoned customer service as directed on Thursday.Thanks

New car weekend. Sorry to disappoint EV doubters but she’s a 358 miles theoretical range and hasn’t caught fire yet. #EV

Contact the people here and am sure they’ll respond to press enquiries .

It would be a standard booked with Tesco voucher and part payment . A bit like this picture here James.

I often take my EV to France where they seem to have a standardised EV sign.

Hi @British_Airways many thanks to Captain Preston Wilson and his crew for a great flight home BA607 from Pisa Saturday night. Despite air traffic delays around Europe he managed to get a few short cuts to arrive almost on time.

RIP Air India flight AI171 crew and passengers together with those on the ground. 🥲. Had a wonderful 787-8 flight Mumbai to Delhi a few years ago. They deserve a full investigation, not speculation. #avgeek

I have a Volkswagen ID.3 shortage. Took 9 months for delivery due to lack of microchips and wiring looms 3 years ago. Currently waiting another one. (Tesla available immediately but, well, ahem!). Cheers!

I used one for a work trip a couple of times last month and it wasn’t bad. Very familiar controls given my personal car is an ID3. Loved the puddle lights.

🤣if a southern softie like me can have one sacrilege for a geordie not to Mark 🤣

A beautiful city. I visited last year for the afternoon on my way to Zurich.

@TNLUK you might want to be aware of this scam. Thanks

Passed site of a ferocious tank battle in the days following the D Day landings in Normandy. Lest we forget.

So despite a medium range VW ID.3 58kwh I’ve driven via Portsmouth-Caen down to Brittany for very little running cost. High speed charging in France as little as 24p/kWh & there are chargers everywhere. I haven’t caught fire or felt the need to drive 800 miles non stop!

Amazing. Saw an original one in Florence a few years ago with the old style number plate. In fact just rented an e-500 at Pisa airport this summer.

Frequent visitor to Ypres. Stopped by for lunch last Saturday. Roof repairs almost complete.

They haven’t increased the age beyond the rules changed a few years ago. So, for now, it is still 67. See attached for reference. (Something close to my heart as I’m due mine next year!)

Managed to “struggle” to Tuscany in my EV. Just saying.

Try considering one of these if you have a respiratory condition.

Glad you’re feeling better. I jumped on a BA ‘bus to Tenerife for a long weekend yesterday. 👋.

Heading home on G-ZBJC as BA72 from Abu Dhabi this morning. #avgeeks #avgeek

Yes flew to AUH Saturday night on G-ZBKL. Here is sunrise over Saudi Arabia this morning 🇸🇦.

Heading to Abu Dhabi on @British_Airways BA73 another on time departure and a wonderful crew. 🙏#avgeeks #avgeek

Maybe if it continues. In the meantime I’ve changed this setting from 32 to 28 to see if a lower amp setting works.

@hardestgeezer a pleasure meeting you and your friends at Gatwick as you departed for Kilimanjaro the other day. Good luck with your latest endeavour 🤞

@nectar hi just to recap. I had 500 nectar deducted from Sainsburys Longridge yesterday which is 263 miles from my home store. Currently on holiday in France. May I have them back please. Thanks

@sainsburys hi it appears that 500 nectar were taken from my account at Sainsburys Longridge Monday 30/12/24. I live 263 miles away and shopped in Sainsburys West Green lunchtime before heading to France. May I have them back please? Thanks

Great day out with friends at Duxford #avgeek

Many thanks we departed 12 mins early great service lovely staff in the port and onboard.

But random-Qashqai delivered for some work I’m doing next few days. No EVs available

Happy anniversary. My wife’s grandfather was in the Gurkha rifles. We managed to track down his grave in Kolkata a few years ago. Very humbling. 🫡

8 years ago today I had the pleasure of being presented with a motoring award by the legendary rally driver Paddy Hopkirk MBE. Sadly no longer with us. 😢#ev

Todays big around BA euroflyer from AGA 😂

Another nice sunny day at the office. #avgeek

Managed to here and home ok last month. About 600 miles from home!

Rented a Fiat 500e for a drive around the beautiful island of Lanzarote yesterday. #ev

@British_Airways despite a long queue at Club check-in Gatwick at midday today lots of staff on hand to help organise, moved very quickly, crew on BA2706 to ACE were amazing. Big thanks to Elkie and her crew. And the chicken tikka meal was exquisite. 👍#avgeek

Lovely weather flying to Glasgow from Gatwick on @easyJet this morning.

I spent the past few days in Locarno with the guys from VW that designed it Steve. Amazing presentation, great piece of kit. Included the new performance version.

They were Stuart.

Nice one 👍. I start my drive back to West Sussex from Locarno Switzerland this morning. Currently on a campsite, I’ll leave with 37%.

Beautiful country I actually dove there this week and staying in beautiful Locarno on the shores of Lake Maggiore.

When 50 Volkswagen electric cars went for a drive up a few Swiss mountain passes together today. #ev
