Tesla truck vs 911 for giggles…

Me, I’d put that money into some appreciating classics than any modern gibberish.

And that's totally your choice, fair enough.

Dont you have you have to plant 10 new trees though. The SL63 carbon neutral log burning foundation

We do our bit, we planted a Yew hedge last year, and the local landowner has planted 100s of saplings. With "Ash Die-Back", there are so many trees being felled locally, it is quite hard to keep up with all the firewood that is available. I hear people are putting in wood burners because firewood is so available, and cheaper than central heating oil.

Nah, just 911's :p:cool: - the feel and noise of a flat 6 given bulk stick is addictive as any class A drug
Modern AMGs now have flat 6 and the sound is sweet..

That's my AMG social conscience taken care of ;-).

looked at 2 locally so far and although impressed with the overall condition there has been no proof that the ims has been done, the search continues...
I have one, that has definitely been done ;):cool:

They both do but I was commenting on EV's not SUV's
Fair enough. Just sounded as though it was exclusive to EVs only. :)

2003 ML270 sold but not forgotten. 2022 Kia EV6 RWD LR
And massive SUVs, don't.
Don't even need to be massive....My ML270 weighed more than my new Kia EV6. Knockers are just a touch jealous I think!! The better EV's are great to drive. Don't have to blow everyone off at lights. Just know you CAN!! I love my EV6. No issues at all.

If you don't mind a bit of travel to buy, Cameron Specialist Cars, in Chippenham, are Porsche specialists and had a very tidy selection, of all sorts, when I was there in December.
