    Yes, that was the comment of someone who drove the electric Elise (sorry Tesla) - it may peform the same as a petrol, but it sounds like a milk float. I suspect that the absence of internal combustion engine vibration will remove a lot of the pleasure from driving. (Does this mean it's not just women who would find sitting on a washing machine somewhat stimulating?)
    (Incidentally the Tesla doesn't contain either the wheel motor or battery technology I'm always rabbiting on about.)
    yep ur right all petrol heads are f*gs.

      The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

      But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

        Admittedly that fact it would never cross my mind to spend 35K on a car of any description means I should probably be staying out of this.

          I am kind of cured of my slight car obsession, still get the pangs but not going to blow big money on it again, it just means years more work !
          also - no matter how fancy, you get used to any car and it just feels normal after a while.
          Best option - different car every 6 months, not necessarily new but new to you e.g. alfa, bmw, mondeo, volvo, anything half decent.
          Maybe I have got a short attention span.

                Nissan GT-R = Uber Chav, factory fitted neon light under the body, oversized bass tube and burberry sun visors pucka!
                Some people are like slinkys, totally pointless but the thought of pushing them down a flight of stairs never fails to put a smile on your face.

                  Agreed. I thought the "sunlamp" was an option though (or am I thinking SAXO again).
