Welcome to the site known worldwide as evilution.

I am now old. FACT!

I’ve had some busy weekends doing non-smart stuff because people are insisting that I socialise. I went to the BHP Show at Detling. There wasn’t a single smart car there. Then I went to Alton Towers just to find out that I can’t do rollercoasters any more. I felt worse and worse as I got off each ride. Then I went on The Smiler. I came off that absolutely done. I felt hungover until the next day. It absolutely destroyed me.

Then this coming weekend I have to waste an entire Friday because smart/Mercedes at Lakeside in Essex who used to be owned by Jardine Motors who were ok but they were bought by Stratstone who are utter fucking gobshites. I went onto their website to arrange a service on my #1. It wouldn’t accept my reg or VIN. So I drove to the dealer to explain that I needed a service, a safety recall and a firmware update.

I was told that they can’t arrange servicing at the dealer! What the actual fuck? I got given a shit scrap of paper with a phone number to call. So I spoke to smart via Whatsapp. They said they would contact Lakeside Merc and have them email me. 2 days later I got an email from smart Germany saying Merc Lakeside wouldn’t contact me and I’d have to phone the number. I feel like we have gone back in time 20 years.

So I phoned the number and was on hold for 10 minutes. Eventually got through and told them I need a service, recall and firmware update. They knew nothing about the recall and the updates are over-the-air (like I didn’t already know that). I work during the week like most people do. Guess what, they don’t do recalls on a weekend. (it takes 5 minutes to add the fix). I told them Friday and they said they had booked me in and were about to hang up. I asked when my slot was to be told “drop off at 8:30am and pick up at 18:00”. FUCK OFF! What the fuck am I supposed to do for over 9 hours? Absolute clowns. I will never use any Stratstone Mercedes dealers again for any servicing. I would rather drive well out of my way and use a different franchise who won’t treat me like a cunt.

I think because the weather is nicer, people are out playing with their cars. So there has been more questions for me to add information about. A few weeks ago I managed to circumvent a smart server password and access some stuff. I’m saying nothing else but I have a lot of Hashtag 1 information.

I finally jumped through enough hoops and got enough view hours to monetise my YouTube videos. So go and subscribe and watch some of my shit.

If you have an EV and live in the UK, I would recommend trying to renew your road tax (VED) right now! If you use the number on the V5C, you should be able to re-tax it online. You MUST do this before 1st April because from that date, your yearly road tax will increase from £0 to £195.  Re-taxing the car now will give you 1 extra year free before you start paying the £195.

I’ve been doing quite a few YouTube videos. If you can subscribe to the channel and watch some of my stuff, it’d really help me.

If you are near Essex UK and are looking for a cheap 453 forfour EQ (electric drive), have a look here. I need the money and need the space.

I sometimes go through dark times where I lose interest in it all. This is one of those times. The weather is crap, I don’t have space, no one watches the YouTube videos and I have so much I have to do with the accounts. I’ll get over it.
