    Looks like my fucking car needs repairs again that are very possibly not worth paying for. Somewhere round a grand. Head gasket or something. I don't know about cars. It's not even got 90k on the clock. But it's French. Citroen Grand Picasso which I hoped to keep going for another couple of years.
    Any views on the second hand electric car market?
    No, I'm not getting a hydrogen car.

    A virtual one or a real one?

    Personally I wouldn't buy a second hand battery car. I wouldn't buy a second hand battery phone without being sure I could change the battery if I had to....and I'd factor the cost of that into my purchasing decision.

    Who knows how it's been treated, how long it will last, and how stable/bomb like it is.

    At least you didn't recommend a hydrogen car.
    Valid points though
