I drive a Citroen Berlingo diesel car. I’ve frequently said if I could get something in a similar format in an EV I would have it like a shot – I like the height and the upright seating position is good for my back. There…
I am delighted to have come across two wordpress plugins that let you download free stock photos, provided willingly by people for this kind of use.
