EVs Are “Cheaper” Than Petrol? Auto Trader’s £129 Spin Exposed!
#ElectricCars #EVNews #AutoTrader #PetrolCars #CarMarket #EVPrices
Auto Trader says brand-new electric cars are now cheaper than petrol cars for the third month running.
Sounds impressive… until you look at the small print.
In this video, I break down the numbers behind the headline and explain why this so-called EV affordability breakthrough may be more spin than substance. When the difference between the average new EV and the average new petrol car is just £129, and that gap is being created by heavy discounting and government support, is this really a market turning point — or just a desperate attempt to make the numbers look better?
We’ll look at:
the £129 price gap
how much discounting is really going on
why enquiries are not the same as sales
what this says about real consumer demand
and whether this is a genuine affordability win, or just another example of EV market spin
If you’re tired of press releases being dressed up as proof that everything is going brilliantly, this one is for you.

Hilo Just Got A HUGE Upgrade: Blood Pressure + Sleep + Steps (All-In-One)
#BloodPressure #Hilo #HealthTech
here is a link to my video https://youtu.be/JNPBRAdvJA8
here is a link to my voucher which will entitle you to 20% Off the price of the Hilo Monitor and a free 12 Months Subscription to the App which is worth £79.99p
https://mention-me.com/me/referee/registerko/189147318/758476504/em/d7bf218e766a1709d0cd09f4ac796c37e5e052e6/ol/cw?epr=1
I’ve been using the Hilo blood pressure monitor for years — and it has genuinely helped me control and lower my blood pressure.
Now it’s had a major upgrade.
It doesn’t just monitor blood pressure 24/7…
It now tracks:
✔ Sleep
✔ Steps
✔ Activity
All inside the same bracelet.
For me, the biggest advantage has always been:
• Continuous blood pressure monitoring
• No “white coat syndrome” readings
• Real-world data instead of snapshot readings
And now having sleep and step tracking built into the same app just makes it even more useful.

As always — this isn’t medical advice. Just my honest experience.
