⚡️🚗 ** Exciting Times Ahead ** 🚙⚡️
As a newbie to Team @ctrlaltrefuel, joining a clan of like-minded guys that share a passion for cars and EVs is an adventure for me, and a big learning curve.
I took to X (Twitter) years ago to get car stuff out of my head, and have made many great friends along the way.
And having opportunities to be more involved such as writing for Jim Starling, Alex Lowe and occasionally popping up on Will Ball’s Tesla Jigsaw is such an honour and a great pleasure.
Being a part of Team CtrlAltRefuel is an opportunity for me to explore the car world even more with a team focused on creating something new and exciting.
We aim to grow this channel bringing news, reviews, opinion pieces, interviews, guests, plenty of videos, diverse car topics, merch and much more, and have a little fun along the way. It’s all in the plans.
We’re a newish team, and I’m the newest member, but we have decades of enthusiasm and knowledge between us that we can’t wait to share with you all.
We may not be as polished as the mainstream, but we hope to bring you all something unique and genuine on this new journey of ours.
If this sounds appealing, please do consider giving us a a follow at @ctrlaltrefuel and check out our brand new updated website ctrlaltrefuel.co.uk/ and YouTube channel youtube.com/@ctrlaltrefuel?s…
I’ll also be keeping up with my EV deals here as well as everything else I’m involved with. Nothing is changing on my channel, but I’m just spreading my love of cars further.
Many thank-yous fabulous people 👍
In the latest article for the website, @PaulNissanEV discusses his thoughts on retro being the new,
errrm….retro, and how the original Renault 5 allegedly wasn’t popular- with him at least.
Have a read and let us know your thoughts 👇
Despite being a fan of the 2CV concept we saw at the Paris Motor Show, @PaulNissanEV has his reservations.

Sold out of EVs again (car dealer). And I can’t buy any more for trying.

Had a power cut this afternoon due to the weather- not because of any zombie apocalypse “NeTzErO”bollocks catchphrase 🤪
The car had us covered. Ran power to TV, internet, lights, even the microwave, so we barely noticed. Could have covered fridge/freezer etc too.

The Citroën 2CV is back!
🇫🇷 🚗 The Good, the Bad & the ridiculous🚗🇫🇷
We give you a run-down of the Paris Motor Show.
Citroën 2CV EV, the Renault concepts, the Chinese cars, the stuff that actually matters… and the stuff that doesn’t.
20 minutes of three of us mostly not agreeing. As usual.

This myth is so ridiculous that we made a whole live dashboard to debunk it.

Winter blackouts? NESO says no.
Today's Winter Outlook: a 5.9 GW margin, about 9.5% above peak demand. "We are not forecasting blackouts."
Batteries are on its list of reasons, alongside wind and gas.
Big batteries, quietly keeping the lights on. 🔋
Ready for winter?

People heating their homes with an A2A split AC heat pump, like me… 👋
How are you heating your hot water?
I’d love to ditch the gas boiler altogether, including the meter and standing charge, but we don’t have a hot water cylinder.
An electric shower and an instant hot water tap are options, but I’m not a fan of ⚡️ showers.
Any solution I’m missing? Apart from fit a hot water tank and immersion. 🤔

Is the MINI Electric the ultimate daily commuter? 🏙️🔌
Natalie has driven hers from new and she praises it for being fast, nimble, and incredibly easy to park. But what are the main daily limitations she wants prospective buyers to know about? 🤔
