Those brands are already here. And BYD is the biggest EV seller in the world. If those people don't know about it, they should leave their…

Was told 4-6 months wait in WA in March for Seal Premium. Then test drive a Sealion 7 and liked it better. They told me the Sealion 7 is…

Thanks for the heads-up. For what it's worth, after-sales support for established ICE brands isn't always great either. I have had all…

For EV's, yes. Because no FBT applies. Depending how much you earn, you could save a very large amount. Novated lease on other vehicles…

Employers are not obliged to allow novated lease arrangements, so I don't see why they couldn't disallow a certain provider. I know my…

I checked one out at the shopping centre recently. I was quite shocked that the whole front seems to be plastic. Like a large, vertical…

BYD told me my NL provider has to send them a purchase order.

For me, they said if I'm doing a novated lease they don't need a deposit. I just contacted them, and they instructed me to ask my novated…

Our current cars are Japanese. We've had issues. It's why I have no issue getting a Chinese EV.

Were the people at Tesla buying cars or setting them on fire? 😂

From reading the reviews, especially of the dealer nearest to me, it sounds like they can't cope with the load. People are avoiding…

Many employers will only deal with certain lease providers. Mine permits 2, so that there is competition.

Can't really compare with other brands who discount their overpriced EV by a huge amount because the price was silly to begin with. Take…

Thanks, I phoned BYD before I saw your response. The sales person associated with my order will phone me later. I'll see what she says…

It's a decent discount. But does it apply to existing orders? I have had an order in for 6 weeks with an expected delivery of June. Several…

Not a huge range nor a lot of power.... I wonder how reliability would compare to other cars of the price. This doesn't seem like a car you…

Yeah, I wouldn't expect too much. I just need to replace my WD MyBook that's just hit 10 years. For simple central file storage it should…

Woops, thanks for pointing out. Fixed.

Was in the market for a 2-bay NAS that I can use to backup to Cloud storage, and this was the cheapest option for a decent brand. This is a…

I paid for something I did not receive. It's a matter of principle. And as far as I'm concerned, I did not get "caught". If Netflix…

Exactly. With Netflix, once they realised I didn't live in Turkey, they instantly cancelled the account. Because they classified it as…

Yep. I know academics who travel regularly, and many now refuse to travel to the US. Their advice is that if you have to go, bring a burner…

How would you misappropriate it? Do you know what it costs to send a kid to school? When you offset this payment against those costs, it is…

Sure. But then you need an external device for media. With a tv OS, I'd be less worried that it could be infiltrated to perform malicious…

Dogs don't like noise, but ours got used to the hairdryer and the leaf blower. I reckon you'd be okay.

My problem with appliances running Google (like my aircon controller, which was 2 Android versions behind on installation) is that once…

I didn't start using things like Android Auto until maybe 7 years ago. Navigation: yes, but I don't see how I'd get fined for going the…

It's easier to speed in a modern car with more power, than in an old car where you can tell your speed from the noise of the engine.

23 years of driving in WA - once lost 3 points because I misjudged an orange light due to being more preoccupied with the temperature gauge…

The eSIM is activated from the moment of purchase. I have been caught out with them - you cannot buy them in advance of needing them,…
