Its ok, now that 'we've taken back control' the UK will soon have its own unique plug under the new regulations that the Chancellor has promised. Can't wait to progress back to the good old days of Bakelite. Thumbs Up






All we've got to do is hope that those Jonny foreigners, the French and Chinese, finish that power station so you can charge it. Laughing

Have to say whilst its a pain adopting a new standard the Type2 has flaws in my opinion. Having owned a BEV for nearly 5 years i have had 3 x type 2 plug failures due to wear and tear. The smaller diameter Pilot and Earth connectors wear thin and cause disrupted and failed charging. I have just had to take my tethered plug on the drive apart for the 2nd time in 12 months and replace one of the smaller pins.
