Hundreds of cars in the car park. A Leaf drove in as I drove out. No others.

And an Audi-ish thing one the way home, green flash registered but not the badge. Going in the opposite direction round a roundabout so out of sight except for a second.

An MG 4 apparently - in the same 'eye catching' orange as on their website. You are certainly not going to miss it 😜😜

First time we've had one of these in the close, somebody's rich relation maybe or a visitor to the doctor round the corner.

Not surprised at all.
Particularly as American 'Intersections' look very dubious without help from AI's.

I saw the orange MG again, I was on foot this time so got a 'better' look. It looks like a Countach that has been in the tumble dryer...!! Check out the rear, WTF are those things on the rear window???

Did the usual shopping trawl and was in some large car parking areas, and then the usual Thursday trip to Durham in the evening and saw:-

Nothing. Not a single EV.
Well, excepting the C4 electric that lives a couple of doors from my son, and the Toyota hybrid a few doors down but I see them almost daily so fish in a barrel.
