At least with an Aston Martin (or even the 1920's Bentley), you drive it, fill it up in 10 minutes, have a break for another 20 minutes, then keep on driving it. Repeat until destination/tiredness. For more a 'real car' than the e-Golf !
With the e-Golf, you're limited to a choice out of :
1. staying within 35 (maybe 40) miles of home on a day trip.
2. Going (maybe) up to 50 miles from home on a day trip IF you KNOW there is a charging point for a few hours. God help you if someone else with an electric car wants a day trip to the same place though !
3. Going up to 70 miles from home on an overnight stay. Again, IF you can plug the car in for the night.
Electric cars will send us back to the early/mid-19th Century, where people never left the county they were born in, unless by the new-fangled trains.
