Also they will make our villa more saleable if we choose to downsize. We would never return to the UK. Unfortunately it is going downhill very quickly. But then again that is another discussion. Hope this helps.

I dont mean to sound unkind but why would you spend thousands on solar panels if you are in your 80's ?
You may not get the cost back for many years which would not benefit you with your age
I am not as old as you but i consider it too late in my life now to shell out on something so expensive , besides i have a good tariff with iberdrola that reduces my bills a lot
I would have spent the money on a world cruise or something that would give me enjoyment
I understand if you are leaving the house to your family and it could benefit them, but i would put myself first
To be honest when i first read your post i thought you were the company promoting themselves with all the contact information
I really do think they have taken advantage of you here, sorry, but just my opinion
Take care

Wow! What a crass comment! Why should someone not be entitled to improve their lives because you deem them past a suitable age! Many people live well into their nineties, and they are the people who continue to live life and don't decide that they are too old. You are never too old unless you choose to be!
