We have just arrived at Corley Services on the M6 near Birmingham on another university open day trip. Our blue i3 arrives just before a Soul EV in a very similar blue finishes its charge and leaves.

This trip is much shorter than the Liverpool one so we have the option of not charging at all. That’s just as well as the Electric Highway app won’t let us charge – some sort of glitch. It’s telling us the charge point is still in use even after the other car has driven away.
