00:00Yes, I would, and as long as Elon Musk wasn't involved, I would definitely get involved.
00:04Yes, I would. The only problem for that is just that the vehicles themselves are a lot more expensive.

00:15Do you drive yourself?

00:17And what do you drive?
00:18I drive a kind of old car, but my next car is my bus pass next year when I hit 60.
00:24I would. I've seen them pop up quite a lot more, even here.
00:27Outside my flat, there's a series of charging points, which kind of make it a lot more accessible.

00:39It's the buying and transferring from petrol to electric.
00:42Yeah, I agree.
00:44I don't have a car, but if I could afford one, then yeah.
