Scottish: well that's right

Scottish: certainly in my mind anyway

Scottish: i agree because i really like the look of these new electric cars it's amazing how silent they are

Scottish: absolutely yeah

Scottish: it's really amazing and i know someone who's got a hybrid so that actually means that it can run on electricity and it can also run on uh petrol so you can flick between the two so technically that's really good in terms of for the environment

Scottish: oh absolutely

Scottish: do you think you'll get a an electric car eventually

Scottish: <cough> i think eventually yeah i think eventually most people will um it's all about having the infrastructure at your home as well though and being able to ensure that having a um an electric or the hybrid works for yourself

Scottish: absolutely because i suppose once you do get that you would have to have a charger installed on your house so there's the sort of

Scottish: yeah

Scottish: process of that as well isn't there

Scottish: yeah and and that's the thing people i'm not saying everybody but i think there's certain people like that don't think that the why the (()) of having an electric car and and it still costs money to actually charge a car up et cetera um and it's just as an alternative to having to fuel up

Scottish: that's true i would be interested to see how much it costs to charge up a car at home from your own energy usage wouldn't that be interesting

Scottish: it would certainly with the energy prices going up

Scottish: it would to see if you could counterbalance it with the cost of diesel or petrol at the moment certainly i don't think it would be as much to have it fully charged because a full tank of diesel or petrol right now is astronomical the prices you'll know that yourself

Scottish: oh absolutely and i think that i think that actually as a benefit to having an electric car nowadays certainly with with the way fuel prices are going

Scottish: definitely it must be more co cost effective in the long term i suppose it's a bit like the solar panels on your house initially they would be a big outlay in terms of cost but then over time it would balance itself out because you would be regenerating that money back in terms of paying for it through energy bills

Scottish: yep yep oh absolutely i think it's uh um i i do generally think that it's a great idea having electric car a lot to (()) against it and and as you said earlier on sorry the uh the the noise and how quiet it is et cetera a lot of companies try to develop specific noises uh so that people can hear them coming et cetera

Scottish: that's that's amazing how quiet i i just couldn't get over i actually got afraid because one came up behind me in a multistory car park and i genuinely didn't hear it and i i got afraid because i just wasn't expecting it so i suppose in a way that's really good but in a way it'll take a lot of time to get used to that i think certainly for the older generation again you know

Scottish: oh absolutely um it's probably easier for for the younger generation like us to to understand the the needs behind it et cetera but um we're gonna have a generation of current children growing up with electric cars and not knowing any different

Scottish: this is true remember when we were young we used to think about flying cars by this time the two thousands there was going to be flying cars and all these different ideas that were floating around i wouldn't be surprised if that

Scottish: yeah exactly

Scottish: i wouldn't be surprised if that was going to be a real thing in a good few years' time the way things are going

Scottish: i'm sure it will eventually i'm sure it will eventually and i i don't doubt for one minute somewhere in the world where you can probably get a flying car

Scottish: there probably will be there will be a prototype somewhere no doubt <no-speech>

Scottish: yeah i've certainly not seen one though
