New pay per mile at 3 pence on cars.

BUT .... vans not to be charged.

Source?

Is true, just checked online, however, seems it’ll only be for a a few years max.

Always makes me laugh when the hot users pop up this time of year telling anyone who will listen how amazing hot water is  ;D

I managed just fine with cold, started at 8, it was 5 degrees by 10am and 10 degrees in the afternoon.  8)

I reckon I would of packed in window cleaning by now if I had to use cold water. Its a miserable working day from Oct-April using cold water IMO

Strangely - here - once a vehicle reaches 40 years old it doesn't need an MOT.

My 44 year old Suzuki GS850 hasn't had an MOT for four years. Although I personally have it checked over by an MOT tester every couple of years just for my peace of mind.

Didn't Starmer announce recently that he was going to introduce an MOT requirement for all cars on the road no matter their age?

Another thing that amazes me is that caravans and trailer aren't registered and taxed in this country. Oversees they are and carry their own number plate and have to display a current tax disc.

I didn’t know vans wouldn’t be charged. Must have missed the small print 👍

The only time we really struggle with cold water is on conservatories that have no internal heating inside when it's a couple degrees below as that freezes almost instantly, other than that it's pretty straight forward.

My immersion defrosted rooflights and conservatories sides quite happily. Hoses nice and supple too.

Less than £100. Run without a hitch for over 6 years.
