IONIQ 5 2k mile challenge, part 3: John O’Groats to Canterbury

The final part of the epic journey (more an epic fail, really) around Britain in the Hyundai IONIQ 5!

Getting from Land’s End to John O’Groats was a little fraught: some chargers didn’t work, a coach blocked some chargers, charge speed was slower than hoped, and there was more hassle than expected.

Would the way home be any easier? Join co-pilot Maz and I on our trip back down south.
