"I'm not sure why, but I'd always wanted to go electric.

Like most blokes, I've always loved cars. So much so that I even decided to
become a racing driver last year at the age of 52, getting my racing license
and completing my rookie season with a respectable 25th out of 51 entrants in
the 2023 Nankang City Car Cup Challenge.

But that's a story for another day.

The truth is that until a few years ago I hadn't been able to afford the luxury
of an electric vehicle. Well, at least not one that I actually wanted anyway.
But as my situation changed in 2020 onwards, it finally became a serious
consideration.

Of course, the fact that the UK government had introduced an incentive scheme
(whereby if you bought a brand new electric vehicle through your company, you
could, in simple terms, offset the entire cost against tax in the first year)
may also have been an influence.

Having both a company and some profits I'd rather not hand over tax for at that
time, I decided that this was the moment. But where to start?"
